Influences
FLY BROWN DRAGONS is working with renowned hip hop producer Phaze G from the SF Bay Area. "Our sound keeps changing & evolving & what's coming next isn't neccesarily like what you're hearing now on My Space. Also, we all bring something unique to the mix but right now I'd say we're like Tribe Called Quest meets Maroon 5. Basically we're trying to take some chances and not play it safe. It's always some new sh*t." - Dante . "We used to try and jam so many different styles of music into one song. We would go from an old school Hip Hop beat to a jazz riff into some reggae and then do a funky rock groove. We were all over the place trying to find our own voice as a group. Now I think we're there. The 4 songs on here are going from fun to political. But the grooves & beats pay homage to our more underground and conscious roots with the use of the piano and acoustic guitar. We even bring in a little island flavor too." - Darion . "We grew up on old school Hip Hop break dancing when we were little kids. So, that's always underneath whatever we're writing while we're tryin' new things. We're also influenced by other music we were exposed to by our parents like Cat Stevens or Jim Croce or Elton John. And all the old school Soul & Motown. Even like a mellower kind of Filipino love song vibe. That's why we cover LL's 'I Need Love'. That's a Hip Hop slow song classic." - Derek . "I 'm probably the most 'Rock' guy in the group. I mean don't get me wrong Hip Hop always comes first. Then probably R&B and Motown and all that, but..I also like stuff like Jack Johnson and Green Day and we all listen to all kinds of music. And that really comes out in how we write and rap. And in the next song I'm doin' a lot of singing too so.. You never know what we gonna come up with next!" - Dion

Youngest to oldest it goes: Dion, Dante, Darion & Derek Basco. The Basco Bros. have been performing together since they were little children. They began as the popular Bay area break dancing crew called the Street Freaks. This naturally led them into rapping together as a group first called the Brown Boyz (13607 1/2) back in the day. As they developed their songwriting skills and added singing to their list of formidable talents they became Fly Brown Dragons. They have been playing the top venues here in Los Angeles (Dragonfly, House of Blues, Hard Rock Cafe, The Key Club) as Fly Brown Dragons since 2000. *In 2006 they changed their name to THE BASCO BROS . The Basco Bros. have been very successful as professional actors all this same time they have been rapping together. All 4 Basco Bros. act together in the Award Winning indie film "THE DEBUT", but did not play brothers. Dante & Dion were also both in the film "Biker Boyz" recently and Derek & Dante did a big Showtime film together called "Riot". Seems that they manage to work together a lot! Right now, FLY BROWN DRAGONS are also featured performing live onstage at The Whisky a Go Go in their Award Winning indie film (that they co-wrote, co-produce, co-direct and co-star in for their production co. Dragonstar Entertainment) "Naked Brown Men". Currently The Basco bros. are in the studio recording brand new songs and trying many new things with their songwriting. Soon here on My Space you will hear the latest Basco Bros. song as they are in the recording studio all the time this year.
