About
It all started in 1998. After an awesome Visit of the old "Loveparade" in Berlin, Benny decided to invest all his hard earned money into Trance Records.Those he tortured on Daddys old Schneider Turntables (Pitch+ - 3%!!!!) until his Mom was forced to set up a small but comfortable Partyroom so he could finetune his abilities. After scoring a Job at a local Record Shop he was tricked in buying many more Vinyls and thus he always had access to the newest ones around.
Shortly after that he moved out from the save heaven of his Parents House and set up his own little Place in his Home Town of Bad Neuenahr/Germany, which got quickly filled up to maximum capacaty with thousands of Records and a fair Bit of mint Equipment.
Regular Visits of "The Funny Bunny Club" at the Base Club formerly known as "Barbarossakeller" in Sinzig/Germany which moved to several large Locations in the Koblenz Area later on changed his taste in electronic music rapidly towards driving House and Techhouse.
After first Gigs at the famouse "Fire Parties" at "Base Club" he spinned as well at "Memory" in Oberwesel, "Zenit" in Koblenz and the "FCB Summer Camp".
A large Audiance was able to listen to him live when he was kicking it on "WWM Radio" as well as on "Infected Radio" and in several large Clubs in Germany such as "Butan" in Wuppertal and many "Funny Bunny" Parties at the "Dekadent" in Koblenz.
You could say 2006 was Bennys Year.It started with a Kick ass set at the Main Event in Koblenz with the Name "Winterworld" ( Of I-Motion Agency which does the "Nature one " events too) where he played 5 Hours and turned the Crowd of several thousand extatic.
Exclusive Sets on the Radioshow "Funny Bunny Session" on Antenne Koblenz 98.0 with thousands of Listenern as well as several Gigs at "Logo" for the latter and "Exil Club" where he showed us his "Definition of House" followed.
At the same time he was Multitasking with his Dj mate Ken-ny and other helping hands of the Community called "We Want More" to sort out his own Parties called "Rashousen" which all turned out to be very popular.
The Climax of them was reached when his Party joined up with the Guys from"Absolute Houseparty". Together they started the infamouse "Rasthousen meets Absolute Houseparty" on a beautiful Boat on the River Rhine followed by a mad Afterparty of course.
Nowadays when he..s not spinning his Decks he studied in Cologne and Berlin for his Bachelor as "Audio Engeneer" which he sucessfully concluded at the Winter of 2005. Since then he..s travelling between Bad Neuenahr and Berlin and is still successfully entertaining poeple all over the Place
Biographie
Angefangen hat alles 1998. Nach einem begeistertem Besuch der "Loveparade" beschloss Benny sein Taschengeld in Tranceplatten anzulegen. Diese marterte er dann auf Papas alten Schneider Plattenspielern (Pitch ± 3%!), bis Mama sich gezwungen sah ihm einen gemütlichen, wenn auch kleinen und zugestellten, Kellerraum zuzuweisen um dort seine Fähigkeiten weiter auszubauen. Durch einen Job im Plattenladen wurde Benny zu erheblichen Ausgaben für den Erwerb von Vinyl-Tonträgern verleitet und kaufte sich immer das aktuellste was ihm in die Hände kam. Kurz darauf zog Benny zuhause aus und richtete sich seine eigene Bleibe in der Heimatstadt Bad Neuenahr - Ahrweiler ein (überwiegend jedoch mit Unmengen an Plattenkisten und Equipment).
Regelmäßige Besuche des "Funny-Bunny-Clubs" im Sinziger Barbarossakeller (später Base) und der später in Koblenzer Locations stattfand, änderten seinen persönlichen Geschmack in Richtung House und Techhouse.
Nach ersten Auftritten auf den "Fire"- Parties im Sinziger Base war Benny bisher im Memory (Oberwesel), im Zenit (Koblenz) und auf dem FBC Summer Camp zu hören. Außerdem kennen ihn viele von seinen Sets auf WWM-Radio bzw. Infected-Radio.com. 2005 spielte Benny im beliebtesten Club in NRW, dem Butan in Wuppertal sowie auf Funny-Bunny Veranstaltungen im Koblenzer Dekadent.
2006 könnte man problemlos als Bennys Jahr bezeichnen. Angefangen mit einem grandiosen Gastspiel auf dem Großevent "WinterWorld" (Veranstaltungsagentur I-Motion, ebenfalls Veranstalter der "Nature One"), wo er 5 (!!!) Stunden lang den Housefloor beschallte und die Menge zum kochen brachte. Exklusive Sets bei der Radiosendung "Funny-Bunny-Session" auf Antenne Koblenz 98.0 mit tausenden von Zuhörern sowie Auftritten auf Funny-Bunny Veranstaltungen in Koblenzer Logo. Mehrere Bookings im Koblenzer Exil, wo er seine Definition von House darbietet, sowie im Capitol Bingen (ehemaliges Palazzo) in dem endlich wieder elektronische Klänge hallten.
Und wie fast nebenbei organisierte Benny noch mit seinem DJ-Kollegen Ken-ny und weiteren helfende Händen der Community "We Want More…" eine eigene Partyreihe: "Rast Housen". Diese fand einige Male viel versprechend im Rasthaus B9 in Bad Breisig statt. Diese erlangte Ihren Höhepunkt dann im August 2006 mit der höchst erfolgreichen Bootstour "Absolute Houseparty Meets Rast Housen On Boat" in Kooperation mit den Veranstaltern der Koblenzer Partyreihe "Absolute Houseparty".
Des Weiteren studierte Benny in den letzten Jahren an der Kölner Niederlassung des international renommierten SAE Institute die Fachrichtung "Audio Engineer Degree Programm" die er im Winter 2005 erfolgreich abschloss. Der frischgebackene Audio Engineer (Tontechniker) wohnt nun seit September 2006 in Berlin um dort den Abschluss Bachelor of Arts zu erwerben.
