Dec 5, 2009

On Dec 5th I make my second visit to club 1015 Folsom in 2009.  I’m very much looking forward to playing here again along with Matt Darey and DJ Taj. Last show was a blast, so I’m looking forward to seeing some familiar faces & meet some new ones!

I am planning on recording the set, so hopefully I will have  a download and tracklist available for everyone.

On a related side note, I’m in the studio working on a remix for Matt Darey’s new project “Urban Astronauts”,  in addition to remixing a classic trance tune “Point Zero” that was released  under Matt’s old alias Li Kwan.

If you’re in town and are making it to this show,  feel free to leave a  comment here if you plan on coming out

I’ll be performing at Soundbar in Chicago on Friday,  September 11th with Matthew Dekay.  This is a joint event that is also the celebration of Audio Logic Recordings‘ 2 Year Anniversary, with additional  DJ sets from Chicago DJ/producers and Audio Logic Recording Artists Seneca , Nick Stoynoff, and myself.

Spybar Nightclub – 646 N Franklin Chicago IL 60607

I am playing Spybar on Friday May 1st. Headlining the night is DJ and recording artist Sultan (bio/info below). I’m on the decks for the 1st half the night. Should be proper.

Ben Brown friends/fans: email “info at djbenbrown dot com” to  to be put on the guestlist.

Sultan featured Ben Brown “Nova” in his DJ charts last year, so I’m very excited to join him at Spy, which is always rocking on Friday nights.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

From the desert heat of his country of origin to the winter rigours of Canada, Sultan has travelled a road quite out of the ordinary. After living in Kuwait, Cyprus and Egypt, Sultan moved to Montreal, Canada in 1996 to pursue an education in Mechanical Engineering and Business. Inspired by the vitality of the nightlife and his passion for music, he quickly immersed himself into the house scene of his adoptive city. Little by little, his interest for structures irrepressibly shifted from engineering to music.

In 2000, his reputation took root in solid ground when Montreal’s Mix 96 radio station assigned him the 12-3 a.m. slot every Sunday night. And In July that same year, Sultan became the weekly Level resident at club Living, opening and playing alongside such DJs as Deep Dish, Sander Kleinenberg, Danny Howells, Saeed and Palash, Max Graham, Nick Warren, Lee Burridge and many more.

Following his graduation from university in the summer of 2001, and in the wake of his DJ success as resident at the internationally renown Stereo and Sona after hours, Sultan created his own studio in order to unleash his talent as a producer. Once again, the results were tremendous. His first-ever production, “Primal Instinct” was signed to Chug Records that same year and garnered much appraise. The door had opened and with great enthusiasm Sultan quickly established himself as one of the most innovative and respectable producers in the house/progressive scene. With releases on various labels including Deep Dish’s Yoshitoshi label and John Digweed’s Bedrock Breaks Label, Sultan now has more than 70 titles under his belt with releases under the aliases of Soul Tan and Jiva (Sultan and Ned Shepard), as well as numerous collaborations with Tone Depth (The Greek), TommyBoy, DJ Tarkan and Ned Shepard.

In 2003, international recognition became imminent whereas four of Sultan’s productions (including a remix) were featured on “Global Underground 25: Toronto” mixed by Deep Dish, which made its way to number one on the Billboard Dance Album Charts. In 2004 Sultan began to make his mark on the international music scene playing over thirty international tour dates across North America, Europe, Asia and Africa while maintaining a solid consistency in his productions and remixes.

2005 and 2006 have seen Sultan rise to the next level with more compilation appearances including Tiesto’s “In Search of Sunrise 4

Click here for full list of DJ support on this EP Audio Logic Write-Up: Ben Brown delivers two new additions to the Audio Logic Recordings catalog with the release of Chinstroke and 151. Ben has the support of many major artists and has not looked back since the release of Love and Solace in 2007. With Audio Logic’s first mix compilation due out soon and Ben at the wheel, his profile and support will continue to rise. Chinstroke showcases Audio Logic’s distinctive progressive sound. The track starts with slamming percussion that builds with an airy tension. Haunting melodies captivate the listener in a rage of energy as the lead filters in and out. The driving bass line creates an intense experience as the track builds and channels incredible energy. Chinstroke has a fantastic vibe that will become a favorite on dance floors across the globe. 151 is a progressive gem that sets the mood immediately and keeps the listener locked in. Ben uses an arpeggiated bass line to set the track apart and combines it with a funky melody that creates a relentless groove. 151 will raise nergy levels in an intimate room or massive festivals making 151 a versatile weapon of choice for all DJs.
