Ron Yench a.k.a B@Dness is a Native New Yorker who was exposed to all types of music at a early age. In the mid 90's, he was introduced to the Rave Scene and Warehouse Party's, which inspired him with the sounds of Techno, Jungle and Hardcore. What really caught his attention was how the Dj's controlled the dance floor with each track that was mixed in. With his own natural ear for mixing, he quickly gained confidence and started spinning Jungle/Drum & Bass. He went by the name of "Mischief" and started making mix tapes for local NYC promoters. After receiving positive reviews on his mixes, bookings for Drum & Bass events and weekly's started to roll in. Soon after in the early millennium, Mischief was playing at raves/events around the country. He really enjoys getting the crowd on their feet with his mixing technics. Through out the years he felt like it was time for a change and evolved into other genres of electronic music, but never lost the love for Drum & Bass!

Dubstep gave him that same ol' feelin' that Jungle/Drum & Bass used to back in the mid to late 90's, but still kept that old school inspiration. He dropped the name Mischief and soon became B@Dness. He started posting monthly Dubstep mixes, receiving more positive feedback with each and every mix. B@Dness is currently taking on the next step and producing his own tracks.
