Trap A Lot Records Artist, TRILLUINATI, grew up on a cocktail of Kraftwerk, The Doors, Led Zeppelin and Stevie Wonder, it's no surprise Benny Hassum has a girth of musical knowledge thicker than Kim Kardashian's rump. A beat head at heart, his upbringing was spent collecting any snippets of audio he could find on any platform he could get his hands on. He blasted the final blend on a Crazy Clarke stereo he got after trading an aged bottle Scotch from his uncle's liquor cabinet. He knew he'd found his calling, but his dignity remains lost since the first time KE$HA entered the poor soul's ears. 

Now piloting his talents under the TRILLUMIN▲TI banner, Benny Hassum has created a name for himself thanks to his no-holds-barred ability to mould crowds around his bass-savvy fingertips. His approach to his sets is as confident as it is accommodating, realising that reading a crowd is more important than racing to finish his bar tab. But don't let that fool you; this Brisbane local can still sink the straight stuff with the best of them.

Having now supported crew like Bingo Players, Lazy Rich, Proxy, Calvertron, Excision and local legends including Danny T, Bass Kleph and Hook N Sling, it's no surprise his presence is well and truly being felt. It's this stature that’s resulted in residencies at joints like Family Nightclub, Electric Playground and GPO, giving him the perfect platform to hone his already impressive skills.

If any of this was news to you, it's time to quit sleeping, especially when you don't need to stay up past midnight to experience TRILLUMIN▲TI's ability. His Soundcloud is the true separator between this beat wizard and all the rest. Thanks to his inventive blend of jacked out bass, trap and electro, he's already popped up on a swag of notable labels, with plenty more to come.
