Too many to name in detail...but we mostly draw upon 70s funk & disco, 80s glam and early Rap as our influences. We like it all...Breaks, all genres of House, Downtempo, Reggae, Rock, RnB, Rap/Hip Hop, Alternative.
Well not everything...we don't like Trance, Hardcore House or Commercial Dance Music.
The Short Bus Kids are DK Watts and Lance Leber. We are a production duo based out of San Francisco, California and Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
DK Watts lives in Amsterdam now and Lance still soaks up the California sun. When we aren’t busy doing our “day” jobs, we find time to produce and release tracks on our labels: Bounce House Recordings, and SBK (Promo Label).
Both of us are also music junkies! We mostly DJ solo, but the sort of music we spin at our shows ranges from deep, funky house, to disco and funk-influenced breaks. 1 thing we can guarantee in our DJ sets is that we will keep it funky. When we are able to perform together we use live samplers, effects and midi to keep our set fresh and movin'.
Our diverse backgrounds in music definitely spills over into our production. Expect the tracks that we release to reach across all styles of dance music.
