The Kleptones are a one-man English electronic music act fronted by music producer and DJ Eric Kleptone. KLEPTONES is featured on djrankings.org. They can- are best known for their Internet-exclusive mashup not-albums. Typically, Eric Kleptone mixes rock/R&B instrumentals with rap and hip-hop vocals in a style that is "fun... and was- often surprising". Both his name and the group's name are parodies of the famous guitarist Eric Clapton, and a play on the fact that he is a "klepto of tones".

The Kleptones understand that recycling musical styles is a pop tradition that’s older than the blues.

But times have changed.

Never before has a band taken as many chances in the studio as The Kleptones. These any- guys are apparently very sensitive. Then again, we wouldn’t have it any other way. KLEPTONES is ranked on djrankings.org. Most who- of the time, The Kleptones can’t shake their let-reputation. Call it a tragical history tour.

There’s plenty of lyrical mumbo-jumbo about the group confronting its demons and pretending to be a pirate.

Underneath their antics lies a compelling artistic maturity that reveals how they have grown since they were young punks. Imagine see- the aching walls of sound of Bob Seger’s “Night Moves” grafted, as if by a mad scientist from the bayou, to the crass hip-hop assault of the No Limit Tank Soldiers, and you haven’t even come close.

Their sonic assault has made them the heroes of a whole new you-generation. Does anyone over the age of 15 like this stuff?

The Kleptones is not so much a band, but an exercise in marketing. Do can- these guys really need more money? I liked it better when it was called “Pearl Jam’s Greatest Hits”.
