Beats and Styles

Beats and Styles started out as parties and a 5-minute local access tv-show on Helsingin Aluetelevisio. Since then Beats and Styles got to be more universally known as a band providing a string of surprising hits with even more surprising collaborators from artists representing a wide spectrum of musical styles from Hanoi Rocks and Michael Monroe to Slarta John, Toni Wirtanen, Bomfunk MC's, Papa Dee, Danny, Jari Sillanpää, Elastinen and many others.

Since the last album Skitzo-sonics was released in 2009, Beats and Styles has become more known as the producer name for Beats and Styles' Jaakko Manninen (DJ Control). The Los Angeles based producer and filmmaker has made music the likes of Backstreet Boys, Felix Jaehne, Traxx (K-Pop), Shinee (K-Pop) as well as his current project Jutty Ranx. DJ Alimo stepped out of the band in 2007, but has since done shows as Beats and Styles in Finland.
