Such a blast opening for Beat Kitty! My favorite sets are ones that have a bit of a challenge or a twist, and this one was a great exercise at transitioning from bangin' house to deeper bass-y grooves. Life stuff is making it so I can't go out as much as I used to, so I really appreciated the opportunity to play for such a warm and fun crowd, and to reconnect with my burner fam. Can't wait till next time :)

In a world where memory loops and machine dreams blurry bass lines, Your Future Ghost is a haunting, shimmering transmission from a retro-futuristic realm where creativity and AI endlessly mirror each other. This album drifts through vaporized synthscapes, asking the questions no algorithm can answer: What is original? Are we just remixing echoes of echoes? 

Your Future Ghost plays like a haunted jukebox in a neon-lit cathedral of lost futures. It fuses nostalgia, melancholy, and analog amnesia into a sonic hallucination that samples the past to question the future. Covers of songs that never existed, melodies born from code and intuition. This Lushpod is more of a séance, summoning ghosts not just of dead artists but of forgotten ideas.

Each track is a conversation between human impulse and machine logic, between intention and repetition. It's a soundtrack for the twilight of originality and the dawn of something new, yet creepily familiar.

Gloria Justen with Redstickman - LIVE

Benu's journey to DJ'ing began in the late 1980's as a hip hop dancer and early electro, rap, and Miami Bass fan.  In 1990, After being spotted dancing, Benu was invited to join a private rave club in the U.S. that regularly hosted internationally renowned DJ's including Sasha and John Digweed.  This marked the beginning of a lifelong passion for rave culture, club dancing and underground electronic music.  Those early musical influences can be heard in Benu's cross-genre high vibration sets with tracks from Indie dance, melodic house, organic house, minimal techno, progressive house, and tech house, amongst others.  Benu's sets are meant to inspire you to not only move your body, but to feed your soul and inspire an exploration of the innate dualities and tensions that exist within all of us, such as logic vs emotion, human vs machine,  intensity vs calm, destruction vs creation.  Self-actualization and enlightenment exist in the space where synthesis of these dualities takes place.  Benu’s sets aim to inspire and cultivate this synthesis,  for listeners and dancers alike.
