Drive Time Disco - 26th August 2023

DJ & Producer Ben Banjo Field loves to mix Funky, Disco & Soulful House Tunes with an uplifting summer vibe.

Creator of "The Discography Lessons", a project aimed at helping people overcome mental health challenges through music, which he has now turned into a Record Label - www.thediscographylessons.com

With tracks out on Midnight Riot Records, Groovy Firehorse 66, Spincat Music, ChessBoard Music, Soulful Evolution and Walk of Shame, you can catch him at the Corp Yard in Cardiff most Saturdays where he is the resident DJ.

Disco Twister is NuDiscoFunkyHouse - a unique blend of cool nu disco grooves, 80's inspired sound, soulful vocals and funky house beats. This mixture creates a lively and energetic whirlwind that sweeps across the dance floor 😉

My absolute inspiration is Purple Disco Machine. He motivated me to start DJ-ing after a long break again and inspired me with his sound. Also Dr. Packer, DJ Master Said, Shaka Loves You, Da Lukas, Greg Wilson, Fingerman, Brothers In Arts, Romain Villeroy and the podcasts of Pete Ellison are absolutely my favorites. However, these are just a few names and i am enthusiastic about everyone who goes musically in the same direction...

My mission is to give happy and musical moments to as many people as possible with my DJ sets. Otherwise i also want to help to make the music style "NuDisco / FunkyHouse" even more popular.

If you like my sound, you can follow me on SoundCloud to not miss any more mixes. Please like, comment, repost and share it, if you like my DJ Mixes...😎

Many thanks for your support and enjoy listening ✌🏻

Disco, Edits and feel good House music. 

Shared with love and admiration. Mixed on vinyl.

After finding the rave scene in 1990, Lee bought his first set of decks a year or two later. Initially influenced by the music in the North West and clubs like Legends (Warrington), The Quad, Cream, The Hacienda he started his music collection and would play at parties, the odd bar gig and create mixtapes for friends.

Fast forward to the turn of the decade (and century!), now living in London, Lee was part of an underground party collective called Most Excellent, putting on parties at various South London venues such as Brockwell Park Lido and The Telegraph (Brixton), playing classic, funky and soulful house music playing alongside a few notable guests like Trevor Fung and Stuart Patterson. 

After a break of about 10 years to get married and start a family, he started listening to the likes of Fingerman, LNTG, The Reflex and was hooked on the underground edits and disco scene. The decks were dusted off and he started to buy music again…

Lee is now proud to be part of the #DiscoWaltons family, a DJ, Producer and music fan collective who frequent the chatrooms of some of the best music shows and livestreams available to humankind!
