Benny Hell

About Me

I'm a DJ who gets the majority of my vinyl from car boot sales, charity shops and people's attics. I like obscure, leftfield, underground, stupid, childish, hard, kitsch, and thought-provoking music. I've been DJing long enough to know better. My other website is moonbass.8m.com which has been gathering dust since 2002.

It's probably cos I'm getting old

No doubt it's because I'm out of touch "wiv da yoof" of today but isn't Radio 1 shit these days?  I've got no qualms with the specialist shows after 7pm but listening in the daytime is really hard wor...

My first tattoo

 What do you think?  I got this done on my leg about a week ago.  I'd always fancied a half Swayze/half horse with rainbow background tattoo and when I won £40 on the scratchcards I thought it's time ...

Devastating news about the fire.

Saddened to report that a blaze swept through the former moonbass site earlier today.  The fire wiped out all but the homepage which itself has now been deemed unrepairable.  www.moonbass.8m.com had l...

I was talking to a bloke in the pub last night, telling him how gullible I was, recalling the time I swapped all of my dad's cows for some "magic" beans etc.   He said he could get me s...

My night in the brewery with Girls Aloud!

I had a dream I was locked in a brewery with Girls Aloud last night.  If you could have seen it it would have made your hair curl, it was that hardcore.  Harding let me cop a feel and everyt...
