When you say Techno, you say Ben Sims! Simple as that, prove me wrong! Here are some of his finest Hardgroove Techno sets from the past! Enjoy!

With over 20 years experience under his belt, Ben Sims has a well-deserved reputation as one of the world's most in-demand and leading techno DJs - a tight, energetic mixer who skilfully weaves together his own distinctive blend of tough funk and hardg..
From early formative days earning his stripes spinning hip hop, house and rave on pirate radio, and at parties around Essex and East London, through the 90's as an ever more in demand DJ, and on into the new millennium as a label boss, producer and internationally recognised techno legend in his own right, Ben Sims has spent all his conscious life exploring all facets of underground dance music 

Throughout that time, the man has honed his reputation as a tight, energetic mixer who skilfully weaves together his own distinctive blend of tough funk and hardgrooves, often using three-deck wizardry and plenty of dexterity.  Be it at clubs like Fabric London, Atomic Jam, Berghain, Florida 135, or any number of festivals around the world, Sims' sets are powerful, memorable, and unique, while constantly pushing the boundaries of a DJ set - utilising a   mesmerizing blend of vinyl, CDs, and software.

As well as carving a reputation as one of the world's leading techno DJs, Ben has curated many of his own revered labels over the years.  Chief amongst them is Theory - an imprint this year celebrating it's 40th release, that counts amongst it's supporters contemporary connoisseurs like Marcel Dettmann, Ben Klock, and the old guard of Dave Clarke, Robert Hood, Rolando and more - proof, then, that Sims is on the form of his life production wise.

Riding high on the wave of critical acclaim from his cultured debut long player on Drumcode, 2011's Smoke & Mirrors, an album that voyages into Sim's unique take on techno, coupled with authentic house outings, thanks to guest appearances from Chicago's Tyree Cooper and Detroit's Blake Baxter, whilst also showcasing plenty of dubbed-out and grainy textures.

Sims has put his name to more than 50 releases in the last two decades.  During those years, there has also been a steady stream of high profile remixes of scene heavyweights, including Jeff Mills, Adam Beyer, Kevin Saunderson and Chris Liebing, on labels du jour like AXIS, KMS, CLR and Drumcode, all of which have won as much critical praise as they have crossover success. 

Despite his veteran status in the scene, Sims has always been keen to evolve.  Alongside Kirk Degiorgio, he is co-founder & curator of Machine - a clubnight which focuses on new, unreleased, & upfront music; it's primary home in London, but with editions all across Europe each year. His 'Run it Red' radio show, broadcast via NTSlive and podcasted afterwards, also serves to solely highlight new music.

Ben Sims & Henrik B Live @ Hyperspace, Budapest Hungary 04-06-2002

A live radio tribute mix recorded about 20ish years ago on a West London station “Interbeats FM”. Going back in time – this recording is from one of my regular Sat afternoon radio shows, where I attempted to capture at least some of the essence of one of the best clubs I ever had the privilege of attending between 1993-95 – Club UK in Wandsworth, South London.

I loved the techno room, but this mix is more focussed on the sound of the middle room, that was the spiritual home for our crew - or the “carpet room” as we used to call it. The music was more progressive house/euro house/early trance based. Magical times and magical memories for anyone who was lucky enough to be there 😊

I hope you enjoy the mix, recorded live on vinyl and at times some muffled chat due to a dodgy mic (sorry about that!) but hopefully the music makes up for it. Much love – especially to any Club UK peeps out there, Colin x

The Calm Before The Storm (Extended Mix)

Carl Cox & Paul Oakenfold @ Angels 20th Birthday Burnley 27.08.94

Barry Weaver was one of the best techno dj's from LA's early rave and underground scene. He had a great ability to mix familiar anthems with lesser-known tracks. His mixing was technically precise. If his name was on the flyer, you could expect a rock-solid set.

This mix tape, Tekno - The New Religion, was sold at record shops on Melrose Boulevard, the hub of LA's club culture. I bought this copy in '92 at Beat Non Stop, one of the big dance music record stores.

The tape sides weren't labeled with the traditional A and B or 1 and 2. Instead, one side was labeled "Everybody's Free / Free Everybody". The other side was marked "Eat Em Up Yum, Yum / Yum, Yum Eat Em Up". So which side was first?

I put the Everybody's Free side first because it starts with an obvious introduction, the spoken meditation, while the start of Eat Em Up seemed to be a continuation of the first side. It should be noted that the Eat Em Up side is the one packed with popular techno tracks, so if you want to hear the familiar bangers first, skip to the 31:00 mark.

After transferring the recording to digital format, I applied some noise reduction to minimize tape hiss, tweaked the eq, and brought up the levels. The result sounds pretty decent. 

This tape was produced by the Milky Way Acid House Family. Milky Way recorded and distributed a series of mix tapes featuring the biggest dj’s of the time (1991-1992). Many of those legendary mix tapes can be heard on Simfonik: http://simfonik.com/tag/milky-way-acid-house-family/
