The Maniac All-STars


Biography

They say it was impossible, techno junkies, rockers, ravers, and
sample-slayers living together peacefully. Psy-Trance and Hip Hop,
they’re light-years apart. Rock, Breakbeat, DnB, and Dub-Step,
it just can’t happen...

When these worlds collide, you get The Maniac All-Stars.

Maniac is defined as a person who has an excessive enthusiasm or
desire – “We are music Maniacs!” The Maniac All-Stars are the
collaborative efforts of two brothers Antonio "DJ Satisfaction (SAT)"
and Dennis “Mcfly” Gonzalez formed in 2007 as one of the internet's
leading remix duos. The independent production duo have placed, if not
won, in every remix contest they have entered since their formation.
Some of their wins include Vh1’s The Score, The Roots Remix
competition (sponsored by Indaba Music), and Acid Planet’s Camp Bisco
Remix Contest. “We give everything we have when it comes to a remix
opportunity. No Exceptions,” Mcfly stated about their dedication to
remixing, “The nature of remixing really allows us to set fire to the
rule book and do our own thing.”

Many performers struggle to establish their musical niche, laboriously
trying on different musical styles like selecting an outfit for a
Saturday night dance party. But there are others that seamlessly
blend genres, in full command of their craft, style, and music. The
Maniac All-Stars fit firmly in the latter category. Their highly
anticipated sound is a captivating and innovative concoction that
shatters genre boundaries while striking your senses with incessant
hooks. Their Epic dance friendly electronic rock anthems and
futuristic grooves take listeners on an audio voyage that only the
brothers can execute.

In 2009, The Maniac All-Stars added singer/song writer and long time
friend Jeff Epoch to the line up along with MCs B.O.P. and Figure of
Speech and a rotating assortment of live musicians. They have
since evolved into a live electronic group covering an assortment
of styles while still following the paths of traditional electronic acts with
memorable DJ sets. “Being an electronic rock group gives us the best
of both worlds when promoting and connecting with fans” added DJ
Satisfaction, “We can remix, DJ, and rock out on stage!”


The Maniac All-Stars are currently in the studio recording their debut
EP, DJing events, and remixing.
