Bio
......Beatnik Castle fet Cila & LeeMarie Music Video...... .. ........ .. .. .. .. .. ........ .. ......Tampa Bay psychedelic dance/pop duo and Top 40 Billboard Dance artist Beatnik Castle will be filming a club/dance music video for “Tu Puedes Ser Mio” next Saturday, August 7 at Whiskey North Nite Club at 11921 North Dale Mabry Highway Tampa, FL 33618-3512. The video shoot is open to the public and will start promptly at 6:00 pm. Filming the music video is director Carlos “EB” Banegas of EBS Filmz, a South Florida-based film company that has filmed music videos for local and national artists, including Tampa’s Latin League. “We’re teaming up with some excellent musicians and artists,” explains head Beatnik Quincy B. “Tu Puedes Ser Mio” – the Latin/rap version of Mad Monk, LTD recording artist Beatnik Castle’s summer smash dance hit “Will U B Mine?” (featuring singer Francillia) will feature Tampa-based artists Jovinci, Francillia, June of Latin South, Prostar Recording, and lead singer/rapper extraordinaire, Cila (pronounced See-La) , who, according to Quincy B, is “perhaps, the best darn rapper – male or female, on the entire planet.” “I’ve never heard somebody as talented and hard-hitting as Cila,” says Willie Ramirez, who adds that local singer/songwriter Leemarie also will be featured. “Cila’s heavy-hitting rapid-fire Latin-flavored rap style rap brings the song to a new level,” adds Ramirez. “Quincy and Cila have been itching to work together since the Winter Music Conference in March and now it’s finally happening!” Written, arranged, and produced by Quincy B, “Tu Puedes Ser Mio’s ” backing track is the tribal mix instrumental from “Will U B Mine?” from Top 10 Billboard artist, remixer, and dance pioneer Georgie Porgie (recently named one of Billboard’s Top 10 Dance/Club Play Artist of the Decade!) with some electronic goodies -including a few Soca and Latin rhythm beats and edits added by Quincy B. The English version of the song is currently being played on several video outlets worldwide, including Logo, MTV, VH1 and Spike TV. “Georgie is a tremendous support and it’s an honor to know him much less work with him on a mix,” exclaims Quincy B. “I mean, he’s in the dubious company of Madonna, Beyonce, Rihanna, Mariah, Jennifer Lopez, Janet Jackson, and Kim English when it comes to dance music. His accolades have earned him the title ‘Ambassador of Dance Music’ ” “Tu Puedes Ser Mio?” is scheduled for a worldwide digitally release through Mad Monk, LTD/Music Plant Group (www.musicplantrecords.com) later this month and Beatnik Castle’s follow-up single and video for “How Do You Mend a Broken Heart?” will be relapsed later this year.

Mad Monk LTD recording artists and psychedelic dance/pop moguls Beatnik Castle is, perhaps, the Bay Area’s coolest, hippest and dynamic eclectic musical duo. They’ve been described as the modern-day Sonny & Cher, a quirky rendition of Captain & Tennille, and a hipper version of the Eurythmics. Currently Beatnik Castle is basking in the skyrocketing worldwide success of their current single “Will U Be Mine?” “Will U B Mine?” (featuring singer Francillia) was placed on the Official Grammy Ballot by the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences in the Grammy category “Dance Single of the Year” in 2008 and 2009. Beatnik Castle also was placed in the Grammy Ballot categories "Record of the Year" and "Song of the Year" in 2010. The Tampa Bay Area’s hottest musical duo, which included guitarist Quincy B and singer extraordinaire and Top 10 Billboard artist Ohsha Kai, was recently added to Clear Channel’s New Discover/Uncover nationwide artist roster, including Tampa’s 95.7 The Beat, and the single has over 19,000 spins. The video for “Will U B Mine?” (directed by Russ Miller) made its national broadcast debut on Logo December 2009 and has been added to MTV, VH1, Spike TV, Music Choice and other audio and video outlets worldwide as well as winning an award at the 2010 Tampa Bay Video Awards this year. Beatnik Castle’s February 2010 limited edition Club Remix CD features new artwork and several new dance/club remixes by such dance world notables as Josh Harris, Lenny B, Cato K, Georgie Porgie, Majik Boys, Tod Miner, Julian Marsh and, of course, A Spanish Rap/salsa, Euro Techno, and eclectic Reggae version also will be available later this year. Also set for release in Spring 2010 is Beatnik Castle’s follow-up single “How Do You Mend a Broken Heart (Like Mine)?” an original 70’s style psychedelic dance single featuring Ohsha Kai! This eccentric but seemingly effective collaboration between head Beatnik Quincy B and Ohsha also promises to be both an invigorating and, indeed, refreshing musical potpourri of varied musical styles. Imagine if Swing Out Sister, U2, Fifth Dimension, The Commodores, Warrant, Lady Gaga, The Stylistics, Pat Benatar, Beyonce, Earth, Wind, & Fire, Nightwish, and Kelly Clarkson combined with Alice in Chains, Anastasia, Jim Croce, John Denver, Melissa Etheridge, and Metallica. Also scheduled for release in 2010 is a Beatnik Castle audio and video “unplugged” acoustic performance.
