Aloha, Islanders!
We have a big gift from mighty Santa in this year! Bermudos community meeting a very special guest – BENJAMIN ALEXANDER at our place at Nai Harn!
Benjamin Alexander spins a unique blend of Deep house, tech House and Techno to create the perfect mood for any setting, be it a sublime beach side sunset event or 5am basement night club. He’s at his best leading crowds by the hand through high energy beats into more darker, moody sounds. But this doesn’t mean he doesn’t know how to party with the crowd, always in tune with his audience Benjamin likes to see himself as much a member of the dance floor as the DJ while spinning.
Beginning his career shortly after the start of the new millennium spinning Garage all over London and on pirate radio station 95.5 Entice FM. His faced paced mixing style and deep selection of bass focused tracks gave him a great deal of exposure in a short time span.
It wasn’t until after reading an Electronic Engineering degree and moving to Asia that Benjamin really started to set the wheels of performance in motion. this time spinning the more global sound of House. Initially he focused on private parties in Bangkok and Phuket before becoming a semi-regular feature at the country’s best clubs and bars, notably Bed Supper Club, Fashion TV Bar and Twisted Republic.
Shortly after relocating from Bangkok to Hong Kong he secured a residency at Volar, one of Hong Kong’s most respected clubs (previously placing 82nd in DJ Mag’s Top 100 clubs) regular host to global super star DJs such as Laurent Garnier. Benjamin also holds a residency at unquestionably the best party place in Macau; Club Cubic. His position in these venues has had him play alongside global names such Darren Emerson (former member of Underwold), Benny Benassi, MOGUAI, Above and Beyond, Boyz Noise and Kavinsky to name a recent few.
In 2011 he took his sound back West featuring on the Robot Heart sound system at the global creative melting pot; Burning Man. He shared the same stage with the likes of Jamie Jones, Lee Burridge, Art Department, Damian Lazarus, Soul Clap and many more!
Most recently Benjamin has taken the plunge into the production side of the game and his first few tracks have received masses of positive feedback, he hopes his own work can be a much bigger part of his live sets over the coming years.
