About
The Allergies are a dynamic musical duo hailing from Bristol, England, consisting of DJ Moneyshot (Roy Spencer) and Rackabeat (Adam Volson). Known for their infectious blend of big beat and bboy music, they have carved out a niche by infusing classic hip-hop elements with modern dancefloor energy. Their collaboration stems from a shared passion for vintage sounds, which they skillfully reimagine to fit contemporary tastes.
How to Sound Like The Allergies
To capture the vibrant and rhythmic sound of The Allergies, focus on creating a groove-centric atmosphere characterized by funky basslines, punchy beats, and soulful horn sections. Their music is rhythmic and lively, often built on tight drum loops and breakbeats that drive the energy forward. Incorporating vinyl sampling techniques can help emulate their penchant for classic hip-hop aesthetics, while analog synthesizers and dynamic EQs can add depth and texture to the mix. The use of DJ mixers and turntables can further enhance the bboy vibe, allowing for seamless transitions and creative live performances that keep the dancefloor moving.
