DJ/Producer


Benny Johnstone is one of Australia’s most exciting up and coming talents in the Australian dance music scene. 
As well as working in Melbourne and regional clubs each week, Benny releases a mountain of music each month. Both as an original solo producer and collaborator with some of the biggest names in the Australian EDM scene.  

As well as being played by DJs across Australia, Benny’s mixes have recently been picked up by some huge international DJs including Ben Nicky at Tomorrowland as well and Pete Tong’s radio show on BBC1 in the UK.

​His minimal style combined with infectious vocal hooks keeps the Benny Johnstone name in front of mind in everyone who sees him play.

Ben Howard returns with his 4th album, Collections From The Whiteout, produced alongside Aaron Dessner (The National). The foreboding darkness that coated Ben’s second record I Forget Where We Were and thinly veiled its follow up Noonday Dream, isn’t so evident on Collections. These are songs written from headlines scanned, or news stories scrolled past, providing inspiration for a selection of vivid narrative snapshots – the death of amateur sailor Donald Crowhurst (Crowhurst’s Meme); Russian fraudster Anna Sorokin (Sorry Kid); the man who stole and crashed a plane in Seattle (The Strange Last Flight Of Richard Russell); and the dismembered body a friend of his father found in a suitcase floating along the Thames (Finders Keepers). Alongside them, the personal anecdotes from the same scattered period living between Paris, Devon and Spain. Yussef Dayes features, as does Kate Stables (This Is The Kit), James Krivchenia (Big Thief), Kyle Keegan (Hiss Golden Messenger), and Dessner. Thomas Bartlett, St. Vincent’s go-to pianist, and Rob Moose, a long-standing arranger of strings for Bon Iver, are also present. Long-term guitarist to Ben’s band, Mickey Smith (A Blaze of Feather), remains a reassuring constant. It’s a sonic adventure that continues this nagging suggestion that Ben is one of the UK’s most inventive and naturally talented songwriters. CFTW is his latest opus, and arguably his most fully realised to date.
