Ben UFO是少數知名以無創作姿態成功的年輕DJ，26歲但是資歷深厚的他擅長巧妙融合各種不同電子樂風，把UK的funky，garage，2-step元素帶入techno，house與dubstep的節奏內。Ben UFO把自己的成功歸功於他與Ramadanman與Pangaea共同建立的Hessle Audio廠牌，Hessle Audio成立於2007，涉獵各式的UK聲響，發行了包括James Blake與PearsonSound等未來經典，Ben UFO可說是打造UK樂風融合的前衛傳教士，Boiler Room形容他為“眾多DJ中最精彩多元的表演者”，Radio 1稱他為“DJ中的DJ”。
2014 亞洲目擊現場!
1月10號 Ben UFO 將帶著一箱 UK 異變元素神祕降臨 KORNER!
As one of the co-founders of Hessle Audio, Ben UFO has been responsible, alongside Pearson Sound and Pangaea, for some of the most varied and ground breaking releases of recent years. Having become immersed in the still emerging dubstep scenes in London and Leeds in 2005, his musical taste was shaped primarily by the DMZ and Sub Dub nights taking place in those cities. However, as tastes have shifted and scenes have fragmented, Ben UFO’s approach to the music and to Hessle Audio itself has developed.
As BPMs have dropped and influences have broadened, so too has the vision of Ben UFO’s DJing. He remains one of the few DJs in the UK to have made an impact without a production career to fall back on, and as such his reputation is solely the result of his skill as a selector and as a mixer. As a result he remains in a position to fully explore sounds both old and new, across the worlds of house and garage, dubstep and grime, and further into the past. This level of commitment to the dance music of the last two decades has led to a collection of records which reflects the position London has long held as a city responsible for the constant development of forward thinking music.
This is not to say that his focus is primarily on the sounds of the old school, as Ben UFO is looked to as one of the leading figures supporting up and coming producers. He was the first DJ to play material by producers such as Blawan and Joy Orbison, both now scene figureheads, and his biweekly slot on London’s leading ex-pirate radio station, RinseFM, is considered to be one of the only places to hear the most exclusive new music by both new and established producers.
In addition to well received podcasts in magazines and websites as varied as Resident Advisor, XLR8R, Red Bull Music Academy and Fact Magazine, 2011 was the year that Ben UFO entered the world of commercially released mix CDs. His contribution to the respected RinseFM series was widely praised for its coherence despite the breadth of styles showcased, and he was placed #35 in a Resident Advisor readers’ poll to find the years best DJ. It’s a result which reflects Ben UFO’s ability to successfully present unfamiliar, experimental dance music to a diverse variety of audiences worldwide.
