Check it out!!! New remixes of 'Let The Love' by YamWho?, Mark Rapson and Soul Tornado, coming out on a Raw Fusion 12" soon.....!!
Hi welcome to the Bennson myspace!!! My first full length album is coming out around the globe in Sept on Raw Fusion in Europe/US, Knowfoowl in Australia/NZ and Toy's Factory in Japan. It features some super awesome singers and musicians from my home town of Melbourne in Australia.
check out the first single 'Whatever It Is', already smashing up dancefloors what the experts say:
"DUMB GOOD! Man this is two super dope value for money high production soulful 12". This shit should be in the top 20 man. Its killer. Respect to all envolved. 9/10"

"WOW! BET U BOYS N GIRLS MUST HAVE DIED N GONE TO HEAVEN WHEN THIS
LANDED ON THE DOORMAT. NICE TO HEAR HUMAN BEINGS SINGING IN THE PROPER FASHION AGAIN..
ANY MIX U LIKE..U CANT GO WRONG WITH A GOOD SONG. AWESOME..GOOD LUCK U DESERVE."

"The a-side original mix is a perfect slice of 1982-sounding Boogie. It’s as simple as that. The Soul Tornadoes mix is mid-90’s sounding Soulful Garage (and I DO mean Soulful) and is leaps-and-bounds ahead of anything else around at the moment. If either style is your thing then you just cannot afford to miss this absolute classic-sounding winner. 9 out of 10"

I'm currently relocating to Berlin which I will call my home town for a while. The Bennson live show will be up and running in Sept, looking forward to taking the new tunes on the road!
New album 'Let The Love'. Coming out on Raw Fusion records and Knowfoowl records in Australia and New Zealand Sept 2008.

ABOUT ME
I'm from Melbourne in Australia, which is a cool joint. I started playing piano when I was a kid and after discovering guys like Wynton Kelly and Kenny Barron, my head turned to jazz. Since then I've worked as a session player both live and recording with many diverse artists like The Bamboos (AUST), Eddie Floyd (US), Eddie Bo (US), Alice Russell (UK), The Quantic Soul Orchestra (UK) and The Drifters (US). I was a co-founder of Equatorial Records which showcased the best of Melbourne's soulful club producers and I've done a bunch of projects under different names, too many to mention. My remixes and releases have had support from the likes of Gilles Peterson, Nik Weston, Adrain Gibson, Snowboy, Paul Murphy and Mad Mats.
I like to drink a cold beer in summer and a nice red in winter. I miss the surf already, will have to hit France soon!!!! Check back for gig and DJ updates! WERD, Bennson.
