London based DJ/Producer, Ben takes inspiration from heavy tech house grooves with dark techno elements. He has been praised highly by Iglesias as ‘one to watch’.

Bio:
Despite the many weird and wonderful submissions they get from Joe Public at Data Transmission – think everything from bottles of homemade hooch to used underwear – Data Transmission freely admit that we were most surprised to receive a cassette accompanied by a polaroid photo of alphabetti spaghetti spelling out ‘I AM RON MEXICO’ in the post at the tail end of last year. Intrigued, DT dusted off their Walkman and gave the tape a listen to find that what was on offer, was, well…surprisingly good!!! They then set about finding him online, only to find that there was not a single mention of him on the internet.

Several weeks passed and having written Ron Mexico off as an elaborate prank concocted by the over active imagination of one of their many friends with far too much time on their hands, Data Transmission didn’t expect to hear from him again. Then the postman delivered a bottle of tequila every day for twelve days. A postcard then followed, with the following message inscribed in Spanish “Now you’re suitably inebriated, perhaps we can talk on Facebook”. One brief chat later, Data Transmission had arranged for Ron to come with us to burgeoning snow festival, Rise, wherein we’d meet the mysterious selector in the flesh for the first time. His rider, predictably contained a variety of mescal, alongside “1 semi-inflated inflatable shark, a frozen banana and a copy of the Karate Kid on VHS”. The time in the French Alps with a masked Ron was fleeting and having ingested what we’d consider a potentially lethal amount of Mexican spirits, Ron Mexico left as much of an enigma as he’d arrived.

6 years on and Ron Mexico became the selector of all music for Data Transmission

After some gentle coaxing and assurances by Hobbs (UK) that he wouldn’t bring any “cameras or cops” ‘Ron’ instructed him to meet him at London’s St. Katharine’s Dock at 10.47 AM precisely with the promise he’d see him. And see him he did. Arriving by jetski, the still masked Mr. Mexico disembarked on to a pontoon wherein they set about creating 'Scolarisé à Domicile'.

As a self confessed 'split personality dj basket case', Kid Blast aka Johnny Showbiz aka James Wilson aka Ian Williams is a reclusive guy who seems to have more aliases than MI5. With a history stretching from the late 80s, he has been spinning records now for 22 years under a variety of names (“I change my name each time I start playing a new style of music, don’t ask me why!”), and has played at pretty much all of the venues that kickstarted the Northern rave scene, before taking a break in the late 90s, re-discovering funk and old school hip hop, and reinventing himself as a block party dj extraordinaire, along the way playing alongside the likes of A Skillz, Prodigy, Krafty Kuts, and Rob Da Bank, and establishing himself as a Funkademia resident since 2009 at Manchester's longest running club night of 16 years. 

These mixes have previously only been available on Mixcloud, so now they are available for download too. Due to only having 12 hours of time available for uploads, I will be deleting older mixes to make way for newer mixes, however the older ones will still be available on Mixcloud, and if you want a download send me a message and I'll send you a link. Also check out the Johnny Showbiz and James Wilson pages below for previous productions.
