German born, Berlin based record producer, DJ and label boss Ben Rau heads to Hot Since 82's imprint Knee Deep In Sound for a driving, floor filling disco house weapon. The first piece of larger body of work which is coming later this year. Tearing into the spring with 'Calling Out Your Name (I Can't Sleep)', teeming with infectious vocal hooks and a groovy, guitar-led funk sample. Drawing flavours from classic Chicago and French filter house into a modern house anthem to ignite the terrace parties throughout the summer and beyond.

Acclaimed house and techno producer, DJ and label boss Ben Rau makes his DFTD debut with ‘Mind Games’. A Berliner who learned from East London’s highly influential electronic scene, Ben Rau’s sound was formed from many experiences as a club-goer in grassroots spaces. Today his creative, club-led productions are revered on the underground scene as well as on major festival stages globally, like Beatport chart-topping release ‘The Player EP’ with Jansons and ‘8-track’. ‘Mind Games’ lays at the cross-section of underground and accessibility, as scattered bursts of sonic energy and vocal snippets are scaffolded by an energetic, chugging bassline.

I can’t even describe what it means to have been invited to do the essential mix but I’ll try , the essential mix is arguably the most iconic electronic music show in the world I have been listening for well over 20 years myself , I would tune in on Saturday night and I would dream of the day that I might be invited to do the show. This Saturday that day has come , to be joining the greats like Daft Punk , @kerrichandler @masters_at_work_official and too many more to mention that I have admired for decades is one of those milestones that is so meaningful that it’s hard to find the right words.
I’m writing this sat on a beach in Thailand and my heart is full of gratitude thanks to everyone that has been on this journey with me I love and appreciate you all.

Amsterdam house label PIV Records ADE Sampler finds the label showcasing their exciting sound with four fresh cuts from label artists Ben Rau, Prunk, Chris Stussy and Bas Roos.

Man of the moment Ben Rau goes first and again shows off his slick drum programming skills with No Walls. It’s a bristling and bubbling number with woody kicks and clean hits forcing you to dance. Woozy chords and 303 licks add to the overall deepness and carry you away into the night.

Berlin native and Inkal founder, Ben Rau delivers two brand new mixes of the Roy Ayers classic 'Holiday'.
Titled after his record label 'Inkal', Ben's first pass of 'Holiday' makes use of the original's distinctive piano motifs over a bouncy and urgent big-room house groove; surely destined to become a summer essential for house DJs all over the globe.
Taking its name from his brand new imprint, the 'Meta' mix goes deeper, with afro-tinged percussion and rolling, techno-inspired drums leading the way toward an original organ solo over warm bass and hypnotic chords.
Recorded in the late 70's, unearthed by BBE and issued on the second volume of unreleased Virgin Ubiquity recordings, 'Holiday' is a languid, sun-drenched jazz- funk classic; vintage Roy Ayers. The track was previously reworked in 2005 by Kenny Dope and DJ Spinna to global acclaim.

Hi everyone Pitch Festival was easily the highlight of 2020 so far , it's hard to believe that we were dancing under the Australian sun without a care in the world just a few weeks ago , but there you go life can be strange and challenging at times , but music will always make things a little easier to bear , if you are in lockdown somewhere around the world stick this on and have a dance , hopefully we will all be dancing together again soon.

X Love Ben

Bio:

Dancing all night and experiencing a feeling of community and togetherness is something countless generations can relate to. Ben originally fell in love with house and techno in his late teens losing himself in the music and exploring his deep-seated passion for electronic music through self-expression - namely, raving.

Ben spent many years on dancefloors back home in Germany and in the UK.
As time went on he became more involved behind the scenes, progressing from the dancefloor to the decks and into the studio.
Having a solid grounding in club culture from such a grassroots level means Ben's connection with the dancefloor runs deep, likewise his studio endeavours are aimed squarely at those who dedicate their time to dancing the night away.

A Berliner born and bred, Ben moved to the UK originally to study.
He immersed himself in the highly influential east London party scene, having made the decision to dedicate his life to pursuing a career in music. While Ben was living in the UK, Berlin had become the global epicentre of house and techno and he felt a strong calling to return home. He decided to move back home to build a studio and returned to Berlin with a fresh outlook , a renewed desire to succeed to truly pursue his dreams.

In 2016 Ben took charge of his destiny, setting his focus on his self-release imprint Inkal and sister label Meta.
Both labels continue to grow in stature with every release, topping record shop charts and resulting in multiple represses for each offering.
Ben continues to build his reputation in the studio as a producer to watch out for and as a DJ equally at home in the club and bigger stages.

With such a strong foundation, an unerring passion for his craft,
Ben continues to garner the attention of tastemakers and clubbers alike onto the Global stage.
