Hailing from provincial Italy, world class DJ & producer Benny Benassi is a name needing little introduction but always deserving of wide admiration and acclaim.  Indulging in a career spanning fifteen plus years, Benassi is renown as a humble, authentic and charming character who has grown from club DJ to festival king to multi-million selling record producer taking success in his stride. Trademarking his unique infusion of house and electro with his global smash “Satisfaction” Benny has continued to create music which is a clear evolution of this signature sound but never deviating too far. 

There is no better place to start delving into the rich history of the Benassi career than with his international blockbuster, “Satisfaction” and its game-changing music video became his launch pad into stardom. Created with his cousin and producer, Alle Benassi, and inspired by the car horns outside an open street facing window, this single catapulted into the charts with a #1 in France, #2 in the UK and Germany. Followed by his debut album Hypnotica, which reached top 20 across nearly all parts of Europe within the first month of release. 

The next few years for Benny were a culmination of successes, whether it be the major festivals he went on the play (Coachella, EDC, Ultra Music Festival, Tomorrowland to name a few) or his next artist album, Rock N Rave in 2008. The same year he won a Grammy Award for his ground breaking remix of Public Enemy “Bring The Noise” further catapulting the Benassi name into stardom. 

In 2011, Benny teamed up with a star-studded album cast for his album Electroman which featured T-Pain, Kelis, Jean-Baptsiste and Apl.de.ap amongst others and most famously Gary Go with his chart-topping single “Cinema”.  The Skrillex remix of “Cinema” not only went Gold in the US and platinum in Australia and Canada but won the Benassi’s another Grammy whilst holding firm in the iTunes top 10 dance chart for over 6 months. 

Still on this exceptional career high, Benny Benassi combined talents with Chris Brown to create one of the biggest cross-over dance records of its time with “Beautiful People”. The following years have been a measure of incredible world tours and releases, most notably his record “Dance The Pain Away” with John Legend, which premiered live on stage at Coachella with John himself. 

2016 saw Benny released his first album in five years Danceaholic, an unexpected, stunning cocktail of already released tracks, two unreleased reworks of older singles and brand new songs, led by the hit summer anthem “Paradise”, once again with Chris Brown. “Paradise” stayed in the Top 50 UK charts for 10 weeks and boasts more than 65 million video views and close to 47 million Spotify streams. 

In recent years, Benny's main releases include “Everybody Needs A Kiss” featured US duo Sofi Tukker racking up over 10 millions streams online and was featured as the sound of gay pride for Musica.ly, "Lonely Nights" featuring Lil Yachty, interspersed with two great house-oriented tracks, "Inside" with Chris Nasty, performing well in clubs and on streaming platforms and "Everybody Hates Monday Mornings" with his own production outfit, BB Team, and featuring the eccentric and charismatic YouTuber, Canguro English.

Beyond his own productions he brought his sound to a wider musical audience with a flurry of high-profile remixes with the likes of Bob Marley & The Wailers, Giorgio Moroder, Madonna, Sean Paul and the Rolling Stones, to name but a few; whilst maintaining a weekly radio show on the US heavy-weight iHeart Radio broadcasting to a staggering quarter of a billion listeners monthly.

BEATAMINES
Biography

10 years of dancing he decided he to start cutting music for his dance crew. And that is how it all began…from Daft Punk to Kraftwerk, Pascal explored all kinds of electronic music styles, in which he has the possibility to express himself with tracks like „How Never“ or „Swaggin“.

During the first two years, in which he established Beatamines, he created a large amount of tracks. By 2009, his first EP’s were published. In 2010, he performed his first national gigs. A first milestone was reached in the year 2011, when the first Album “in Motion” was published on Damm Records (2 * 12” Vinyl & Digital). The Album was repressed 3 times and reached #2 best album in Raveline Jahrespoll. Now even the biggest Labels had heard of Beatamines and his amazing talent : Keno Records, Stil Vor Talent, Katermukke, Moonbootique, and Lauter Unfug,… In 2013 Pascal had the honour of reinterpreting “The Planets” together with the Dortmund Philharmonics and Gustav Holst. He also wowed the crowds at the Fusion Festival, playing it twice in 2013 and 2016. Pascal next Big Strike was his 2nd Longplayer “Echoes” it was released on Einmusik’s own imprint Einmusika Recordings.

In 2016 Pascal started as A&R for the label Lauter Unfug which brought him directly to Luxembourg’s club, Studio 21, where he has now his own Residency with the `rememberthevibe` parties. In the past few months Pascal has been playing regularly at clubs such as Watergate, Kater Blau and Ritter Butzke Berlin. In 2018 he is celebrating a decade of his Project Beatamines.

Beatamines doesn’t just like to play with the same old CDJ’s when playing live, but also incorporates hybrid sets, with drum machines and synthesizers on stage. Pascal packs the groove of summer love into his music, underlined with fat baselines, pregnant claps and chunky melodies. If you get the chance to catch him live you really are in for a spectacle.

When Pascal is not gigging, he is hard at work mixing and mastering for Artists all around the globe, and on occasion; cutting hair for fellow DJ’s and friends!

11.11.2025 „Space and Time“ – The New Studio Album by Beatamines With his fifth studio album, Space and Time, Beatamines takes a bold step further on his journey into the vastness of electronic music. This adventure invites the listener into a soundscape where space and time know no boundaries, and where the true journey is the connection to oneself. The album merges melodic house and techno sounds brought to life by warm basslines, driving synths, and atmospheric pianos. Here, acoustic elements blend seamlessly with Beatamines' own vocals, creating a unique, cinematic experience.
In collaboration with his partner, many of the song ideas were born in intimate studio sessions – a creative fusion of music, love, and personal expression. The themes of "space" and "time" run like a red thread throughout the work, inspired by the notion of merging in different timeframes and places, teleporting, and venturing deep into the soul.
Space and Time is not just an album, but an invitation to explore – a call to meet oneself in a new dimension and to be taken on a spiritual journey through sound. The visual aesthetics of the album are defined by holographic elements, where warm, glowing tones of pink, turquoise, and gold come together to evoke the mystique of space and time. Coupled with a fresh, 90-minute live set, Beatamines sets a new standard for live experiences, showing how he continues to evolve as both an artist and producer.
