Montreal-based production duo Banx Ranx craft a sound that blends reggae and other Caribbean influences into a decidedly more club-ready style. They broke through in 2018 with their Top Five U.K. hit "Answerphone," and have continued to garner dance buzz collaborating on tracks with Sean Paul, Rêve, Ella Eyre, and others.

Formed in 2014, Banx Ranx features the combined talents of studio mavens KNY Factory and Soke. Initially, they focused their early output on electronic reworkings of classic tracks by iconic reggae artists like Bob Marley, Sizzla, and Capelton. It wouldn't be until the 2017 release of their single "LIT" that the duo would offer up original music, taking the trap-inflected rhythmic touches they'd been adding to other artists' reggae tracks to a new level. Banx Ranx continued with steady studio work, doing remixes and production for Gorillaz, Sean Paul, David Guetta, and more before the 2018 release of their original single "Answerphone." The song hit number five in the U.K. and was followed by more tracks, including 2018's "Ego" with Sean Paul, 2019's "Mama" with Ella Eyre and Kiana Ledé, and 2022's "Headphones" with Rêve and Tommy Genesis. ~ Fred Thomas, Rovi
