Benjaminbrown's sound is inimitable, seamless blend of funky tribal, afrobeats, pumpin house/latin-grooves & a lot of vocal stuff.
He became enamoured with music at a young age. Growing up in the west side of Amsterdam Holland, he got into electronic music, R&B, Latin and hip-hop, listening to every channel of the radio. He never really liked the idea of housemusic." I thought it was all like acid stuff". Then a friend persuaded him to go to the Havana upstairs; where he was seduced by the "New York" house sound of dj Johnson playing tracks of David Morales, Todd Terry & the "S"man.
Determined to pick up the art of mixing, he started investing in his own and recording mix tapes. A year weekly-residency at the Havana followed, giving Benjamin Brown the experience and opportunity to build up a following.
In the meanwhile he started to put on parties at the RoXY once a month called "G-lounge 465"; soon he was spinning through out the country and international gig commitments.
Now in 2005; he has compiled and mixed volumes 3 & 4 of the Latino Beats series on Sony music; two double cd's which is comprised of a pre-party mix and a peak time mix features several exclusive tracks.
He performs at festivals and at some brilliant parties in Miami, London, Brussels, Istanbul, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Casablanca, and Curacao.
Besides that he is working flat out on his production skills and will be releasing soon his first release on his own record label "FunkyPuppies"; that will be also his agency and event company; putting out his own parties: Forbiddennitelife & Materialgirl.
