Hiddenagenda are the Sheffield based trance duo behind some of the most uplifting, euphoric, and powerful trance & progressive sets you will have heard in recent years!

They met in early 2005 and shortly after Hiddenagenda were born. Although relatively young, they both possessed a wealth of knowledge and talent, which only strengthened as the pair joined forces. Their individual styles benefit hugely from each other and their combined knowledge of tune selection, their immaculate mixing ability and their extensive experience of the clubbing scene makes them one of the strongest duos about.

Both keen clubbers from an early age, and part of Crashers loyal following, they have seen and learnt exactly how to get the most out of a crowd. Frequenting the countries dance floors over the years has armed them with experience and knowledge that allows them to create their own energetic and electric atmosphere every time.

They found musical inspiration originally from the likes of Armin van Buuren, Paul van Dyk, Matt Hardwick, Markus Schulz and Jon O’Bir to name a few, and over time have used this to create their own cutting-edge sound that continues to destroy the dance floors around the country. Their style is driven by big basslines and uplifting melodies with tech-influences, ranging from progressive warm-ups to their now legendary big room peak time sets. With a genuine enthusiasm for the music driving their performances and keeping the energy on the dance floor at a constant high, they will take you on a musical journey that will leave you gagging for more. 

Having made their name at Gatecrasher's infamous Howard pre-parties back in 2005/06 and with multiple appearances for the Sheffield based trance night OTR (Off the Rails), this pair really exploded onto the scene becoming firm favourites with many clubbers and gaining a mass of followers around the North of England. On the back of this success OTR snapped up the duo as residents for their return to the scene in late 2009, a night they still run successfully to this day. 

The duo have had a string of high-profile gigs; the highlights being a competition win of a set at the prestigious Trance Awards hosted by Trackitdown at Ministry of Sound, numerous bookings for Nu-Passion, Passion’s UK Indoor Festival, Magna Phase II at the huge Magna arena, Gareth Emery’s very own Northern Lights Concert, 2 appearances on Goodgreef’s Ibiza Boat Party as well as Goodgreef UK bookings, multiple appearances at Leeds based Digital Society, the Garuda 3rd Anniversary and a number of bookings at Birmingham’s Godskitchen, most notably a main room debut at SixFiveTwelve.

After a brief hiatus the pair landed back with a bang in 2022 warming up the Trancecoda Paul van Dyk event in Sheffield, a gig which marked the start of an exciting new chapter in their career to date. 

Coming armed with some of the most up-front tunes, some forgotten classics, and the ability to create an atmosphere like few others, be ready for a night to remember!

Ben first got into trance in the mid 90’s at around the age of 15 through a few of his older friends. He then had his first clubbing experience at The Mezzanine in Wolverhampton watching Brandon Block and Alex P and from that day on he was hooked. He spent most of his clubbing years in and around the midlands, often frequenting the likes of GodsKitchen, Sundissential, Passion, Storm, Golden, Polysexual and Global Gathering. Although Ben spent a lot of time in the hardhouse scene, his heart always remained with trance.


Ben first got into DJing around the age of 18 when his best friend, Lee, bought some decks. They used to spend any spare time they had learning the trade. For the first few years, Ben wasn't able to afford his own decks but one day, on a drunken night out, he entered a DJ competition in a local bar. Not having decks of his own, Ben had to practice on his friends decks. To his surprise, Ben ended up winning the DJ competition and used the winnings to put towards some decks of his own!


Ben mainly played at house parties and kitchen raves, and had a few gigs at Blessed with his good friends DJ Dawson and Vaughan Murphy, but never really had the confidence to pursue his career any further. A few years later Ben decided to hang up the headphones due to personal reasons.


2010 Ben met the girl of his dreams Ella, who is now his wife, at a friend's party. Together they shared the passion for trance and started attending events again. In 2018 Ben decided he wanted to purchase some decks again and that was it, it was like riding a bike! Thanks to his wife (and his biggest fan), he got his confidence back. 


Ben is now looking to get his name out there and loves nothing more than sharing his mixes with fellow trance fans. While he's happy playing to his wife and kids in his kitchen, he feels that he has what it takes to get a dancefloor pumping and truly believes he can take people on a journey with his sets. 


So, please give this old boy a listen and if you like what you hear, give him a like and a follow ❤️
