Mash Up International is a producer and DJ group from Uppsala consisting of Robert “Robert Dinero” Petersen , Ulf “Uffie Ice” Risberg and Mats “Money Mats ” Norman. Their story began on a dance floor one night, realizing they had a lot in common for the direction they wanted to take music in. Their style is reflective of their name, influenced by dancehall, Angolan kuduro, Brazilian bailefunk, cumbia and South African kwaito under the motto: “carnival right into the wall.”
The band is also behind the dance floor anthem “Animal” with Gnucci Banana and in autumn 2012 they released the EP “Lava Cabeza EP” with the irresistible song “Lava Cabeza” featuring Timbaland and Vaz. This was also performed live at the P3 Guld Awards in early 2013. The EP also includes two brand new tracks, “Adosse” (feat Dama Sabo Pink & Eboi) and “The Shake” (feat Blaya) and remixes of The Very Best & Moroka , So Shifty and Tony Senghore.
