About Me

Ben has been a DJ for over a decade and has been involved in the music industry even longer first a stage manager at electronic music events such as the legendary Tribal Gathering then as a DJ and Producer.r.
Being exposed to Artists like Underworld , Richie Hawtin or Laurent Garnier in the early 90's Rave scene of west germany ignited a passion for electronic music that drives him to this day.
Ben plays electronic music with groove, deepness and emotion , his musical style although ever changing is firmly rooted in deep house and detroit techno.
Constant progression and a love of technology is what sets Ben apart from other DJ's..
Connecting with the Crowd emotionally through the means of technology and music is a need to him as innate as breathing..
Ben is now resident DJ at FUSE , arguably one of the best parties in the UK and can be found playing regularly alongside the best of Europe's underground house and techno artists. He is known for his flawless programming and is happiest playing marathon sets.
