I have been writing music for most of my life. From composing on a C64 as a kid to playing in indie, rock and rave bands in my teens and early twenties, through to writing music for documentaries and working on individual projects.
  I love interesting, aesthetic music. Good music is good music - regardless of genres, styles and production techniques.
  I'm influenced by many artists (too many to mention here) however, the physical universe is my true inspiration. You only have to listen to the world around you! Sound, for me, is as inspiring as the music itself.
  
  
  

Hi and welcome, you've found me!
If you're reading this then the chances are we share a common love for 'electronic dance' music and the various guises and forms it takes.
So who am I? My name is Jay and I am also known for being the Downtempo music writer/producer 'Coolmadina' (you'll find my other page on here too) 
So the Benirrás Beach Club is my project and it has 2 elements, firstly the mixes you are listening to on here and secondly the live show. If you catch one of the live shows you will often see me woking (as a DJ and percussionist) on stage with my dear friend of many years Mike Blatchford who is also a percussionist AND a fantastic Saxophonist. In the live shows, we playing tracks from the Benirrás mixes but we spice up that Ibiza vibe with the Sax and Percussion elements. If any of you have any knowledge of Ibiza, you will likely know about the Benirrás Beach and its spiritual connection to drums and rhythm. I have been a drummer since my childhood. Mike is a practicing Yoga instructor of many years and our joint passion for rhythms of the world and music that just grooves was the catalyst for this project. As a result it felt completely natural and right to have Ibiza and Benirrás as the inspiration behind it. 
I hope you enjoy the mixes on here and I REALLY hope we get to see some of you at the live shows as we work our way around the South of England and beyond!
Happy listening everyone, it's time to get your groove on!
Jay x
