KEYS N KRATES are like nothing you've ever seen before. Using live instrumentation, turntablism, and live sampling,
KEYS N KRATES have 're-invented the remix'. The trio consists ofworld champion turntablist and certified 'partyrocker' DJ Jr Flo (EH! Team DJ's), the ever soulful Matisse on keys and hard hitting Tune onDrums.

Over the past year they've toured all of Canada and have started making their presencefelt in the U.S. After
garnering rave reviews from their CMJ showcase at NYC's prestigious NUBLU, they have gone on to play alongside Questlove at the famous S.O.B.'s, be
featured on the Hot 97 "Who's Next" Showcase alongside K'Naan, and were just recently a featured act at the 2009South By Southwest Music Festival (SXSW) for the first time. Keys N Krates were just chosen to be featured in Urb Magazine's'2009 Next 100' issue, joining pastfeatured next 100 artists such as Kid Sister, TV On The Radio and many more of today's hottest artists. The Live Remix experience is something you have to see to believe.

"This Toronto-Based crew raises the bar for every "remix" artist and his Ableton Live. Turntablist Jr-Flo, Keyboardist Matisse, and drummer Tune reinterpret dancefloor hits and underground favorites, from Aaliyah to MGMT live on stage, putting post production effects aside. In doing so, they don't just make party rockers, but rock parties their damn selves."
URB MAGAZINE


"I was blown away by the act Joey Rubin had put on stage. Keys N Krates will take a track, and remix it and play it with instruments and such. It's the Sickest DJ set ever, although I don't think it's a DJ set. The energy in the room was beyond description."
BLACKBOOK

"KeysNKrates is not only a live-remix band but also an experience to behold. It creates hits from hits by incorporating old music with new. It is a one-of-a-kind performance experience."
FORMAT MAGAZINE


"There was not a better party to be had in the city last night on CMW Friday, than this midnight set. Within moments of taking the stage, the trio had worked the small but packed dance floor at Wrongbar into a sweaty, frenetic, hand-waving, screaming mess of fun. The group took Jay-Z's "Public Service Announcement" and transformed it into some crazy, almost Faint-esque dance rock epic. From that moment on, I was sold."
CHART ATTACK


"These days, nobody can escape the remix treatment. All our musical heroes are getting either mashed up, blended, edited, layered, filtered, chopped or simply screwed. Once in a while, though, they thankfully get the sweet and tender kisses and caresses that they truly deserve, and in the case of Toronto-based trio Keys N Krates, it’s lovemaking in its purest form."
