GULP! presents UK dance music icon Ben UFO. Ben UFO has acquired a deserved reputation as one of contemporary dance music’s most daring and wide-ranging selectors, with his keen ear and razor-sharp technical abilities enabling him to cut between eras, lineages and mixing styles with dazzling ease and fluidity. Having cut his teeth in early dubstep and drum ’n’ bass, his roots lie in UK rave culture - yet his selections cast the net wider, drawing new mutations of this culture into the orbit of house, techno and other global dancefloor sounds. In the club, his sets somehow manage to be simultaneously considered and raucous, sliding from sidewinding broken rhythms into an irresistible four-to-the-floor groove, or broadsiding you with unexpected tangents, old favorites and bizarre secret weapons. As a founding member of Hessle Audio alongside Pearson Sound and Pangaea, Ben UFO has been a foundational voice in shaping the sound of UK club music, influencing artists and scenes far past its shores. Hessle Audio have evolved into core figures in an increasingly globally-connected dance music scene. Having provided an early platform for music from kindred innovative spirits such as Blawan, Peverelist, Untold and Joe, the label continues to release new music from both its founders and emerging new artists. This openness marks the cornerstone of Ben’s approach: drawing connections, exploring new ideas, and feeding some of Hessle Audio’s energy and enthusiasm back into the musical communities of which they are an integral part. Join us in welcoming a true dance music pioneer to Art Club! VIP All Access tickets grant you VIP entry to skip the line, exclusive access to Art Club's Museum Exhibits during the event, and a complimentary Art Club Tumbler. Presented by GULP!.
