Ben has been a DJ for near on 12 years. First getting a taste for quality dance music thanks to Sasha and John Digweed's amazing sets and mix tapes. The passion for this music was so great that Ben felt a burning passion to not only listen to this music but to spread the word of it as much as he could, and so here on in started his mission in life. To explore music and expose it to as many people as possible.
Throughout his DJ career Ben has managed to do this extremely well, having DJ'd regularly in Berlin and also more far flung places such as Egypt and Bulgaria. Also broadcasting on Radio, his sets have become very unique and much sought after.
His style goes all the way from Deep almost ambient house right through to quality techno. Always a journey with twists and turns and his own one off edits, any set from Ben is an exciting ride through the aural delights that make him tick.
After many years of DJing, Ben realised that just playing others' records wasn't enough, so, he set out to create the music he had within and share that with the world. For the past 5 years Ben has been producing under the name of "Benwaa" and to much success.
Many quality productions and remixes under his belt have stood him alongside many top names.Having released tracks on idmF Netlabel, 1, 5, 9, 13 Music! and also Montengro Recordings.
His production style matches his DJ sets but is also much more diverse, he creates the music that comes from within, taking in various styles and influences.
At the moment Ben is very busy in the studio working on a new theMaLm ep, with collaboration partner Martin Standen, and also on a few solo and remix projects including one for Israel Montenegro - label boss of Montenegro Recordings from Mexico.
His production is very much in demand at the moment and he is the rising star of the modern electronic moment.

A great track tom! bloody amazing - I really can't wait to play this out on a big system, just amazing man. thanks so much!
hot damn fella! loving that bassline :P
@Mark Asbrey: cheers fella! I'm pretty happy with this indeed, got a really good reaction playin it out last night :)
@theMaLm: Thanks matey!
Overall a good track that i'd probably burn for DJing out at some point - a bit drawn out in places with lack of changes but overall i quite like it :)
I kinda expected a bit more from the drop tbh after such a long breakdown :/
I'm a bit bored at how ling this break is - not enough changes or is different
Cool percs going on guys!
now i really like the deep feel that's going on with the bassline :D
I'm not a great fan of how thin the kick sounds initially, however we'll see how it goes when the bass kicks in :P
@Absent: Thanks guys - srry for the long reply - a bit busy tbh with some new sounds :) thanks again for your words
@Input Selector: wow thanks man, i `didn't notice this before - that means a hell of a lot coming form you :) thanks again fella, if you want a download just hit me up
Really loving the sound - I have to admit, TJ + Nuno = top quality for me, so got a little excited at hearing this, I wasn't disappointed. thanks for such a nice musical experience :)
What a really happy smiley tune man - nice simple production really sets it off well and by here i was really disappointed there wasn't going to be anymore very quickly - I think this could really develop into something quite wonderful. I really like it all except for the shortness :)
Cheers fella!
What a groove! top stuff! is there a release date yet please?
Cheers fella!
@jakobcreutzfeldt: hehe cheers fella, flattering comment :)
@udosson: Thanks :)
@raytrace: Cheers man, it's just a very small sample snippet of a female vocal brought down an octave and then FX'd a little bit. Really happy with how it turned out, I have another remix in progress of this with the same vocal snippett just used slighthly differently - infact I shhould also upload that too.
@Candle Nine: Ch\ee man, kinda means alot comin from you :) cheers!
@Cyclops_Overlord: Sure man, it's 3 cut up random poems by David Carter Scott read by an unknown guy

@Zuckermann: I play whatever feels right at the time, I'm very influenced in my dj sets by the vibe of the moment regardless of if that's at home or at a gig. All that matters to me is good music that has true feelings written into it :) I noticed from some of your tracks man that we have a very similar kinda style in ways
@Jonas (aka vanyisvany): Indeed, one of my favourites of all time and i still take it to every gig :P
@Zuckermann: Cheers fella! :)
