Last january BEN SIMS tore through Australia like a force 5 hurricane. He came as a highly recommended and relatively unknown artist and left with a reputation as one of the greatest DJs on the planet. Not since Luke Slater's first visit as an artist has an artist left such an impression on Australia.
Ben controls a pair of turntables like no other DJ in the world. His sets consist of non stop turntable trickery, a huge cross section of cutting edge music and unreleased dub plates which he cuts for his DJ sets only - all delivered with the smoothness of a DMC world champion. The founder of no less than 5 labels - Theory, Hardgroove, Symbolism, Native and Killa Bite he is responsible for developing the 'hardgroove' sound which has taken the tekno community by storm and spawned a million copycat labels. Sitting somewhere between the genres of teck-house, break beat, old school Chicago and slamming, percussive teckno you can't help but be taken by suprise every time he steps to the decks. Since January, Sims has continued to deliver the goods with his amazing break beat remix of 'The Mole' and his pioneering double pack 'The Dubs' whioch gave birth to at least 3 Melbourne anthems. His home crew of Surgeon, James Ruskin and Oliver Ho have all been quoted as stating that Ben Sims will soon be the biggest name in teckno. If you're into solid underground music and a turntable mastery this is not one you want to be missing. Expect a lot from the 'hardgroove' experience, you won't be dissapointed >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: 11 October 2000 12:05 >To: Ryan Heard >Cc: 313 List >Subject: Re: [313] jeff mills' metropolis soundtrack [addendum] > > >the good news is is that it is coming out >on vinyl on axis > >Ryan Heard wrote: > >> AAAh well ... in my bloodlust for knowledge I came across >this (forgive me >> if it's already been posted): >> >> NEW RELEASE INFORMATION >> >> Tresor 155 >> >> Artist: Jeff Mills >> Title: Metropolis >> Label: Tresor > > > > >--------------------------------------------------------------------- >To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >
