Ben UFO needs little introduction. Over the past few years he's steadily built a reputation as one of the most exciting new DJs to emerge from London's famously diverse and forward thinking music scene.

As a co-founder of Hessle Audio he's been responsible, alongside Pearson Sound and Pangaea, for some of the most groundbreaking releases of recent years and, as a DJ, for helping to break new producers such as Blawan and Joy Orbison, who are both now figureheads of the UK scene.

His bi-weekly radio show on Rinse, as well as his numerous podcasts and recent commercial mixes for both Rinse and fabric are renowned internationally for pushing the most exciting, innovative beats from the past 25 years of dance music history - regardless of scene, producer or genre. His deep and well-documented understanding of jungle, garage and dubstep - the bass-driven rhythms of UK sound system culture - and his pioneering approach to blending them with the now dominant sounds of classic deep house and techno means that Ben's sets are deeply unpredictable, intricately structured and genuinely unique.
