Bloody Beetroots
Bloody Beetroots is a worldwide phenomenon under which the producer and dj Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo operates. In the Beetroots live sets and dj-sets, Sir Bob avails himself of the services of Tommy Tea.
Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo, born in 1977, began playing classical music when he was a kid, but was soon affected by other influences: the raw energy of punk and rockabilly, the intense, outrageous imagery of comic artists such as Magnus and Benito Jacovitti and, above all, Tanino Liberatore, the inventor of Rank Xerox. Done with Chopin, Beethoven and Debussy, Bob turned his attention to producing a noise that combined samples and electronic with eighties punk and new wave. A decade of no-holds-barred experimentation ensued.
And so it was that Rifo founded the Bloody Beetroots, his electronic alter ego, recording 45 remixes and countless world tours in 3 years.
2010 will be the year for a further improvement of the whole project… Bloody Beetroots is being integrated and fomented by “Death Crew 77”, a revolutionary and anarchic “army” leaded by Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo. The project is clear headed and visionary at the same time; it promotes the artistic exchange between Bloody Beetroots and their fan base, with the aim of creating a huge anarchic creative community. The strengthen of this initiative is the “The Bloody Beetroots Live” in which Bob Rifo, supported by two faithful lieutenants, will be perform live his studio compositions.
