Benny Benassi

Benny Benassi was born in Milan on 13 July 1967 under the sign of Cancer.
He lives in Reggio Emilia, a fine Italian town about 100km south of Milan, where the food is great and the Dance Music is even better.
He works as a producer in collaboration with his cousin Alle Benassi, who has been a musician and arranger at Off Limits, the internationally successful production unit run by Larry Pignagnoli.
After producing KMC feat Dhany (N.1 club charts UK) last year, the Benassi cousins started work on the BENNY BENASSI presents THE BIZ project, a ground-breaking mixtured of electro, techno and house dosed with minimalist flair.
The first single SATISFACTION has made its presence felt in the main charts all over Europe.

Benny is currently on tour all over the world, with his inimitable dj sets. He has bi-monthly residencies at the Gallery @ Turnmills in London, the Queen in Paris and Platinum in Paris.
In April in May he will tour extensively to launch the new compilation due for release by Subliminal Records, Subliminal Sessions 6. This is the first time an Italian dj has been invited to mix their legendary compilation and is a real honour for Benny.The compilation contains hitherto unreleased tracks  by the likes of Dave Clarke, Hector Romero and Robbie Rivera and the first release by Bat67.

His dj style is easy to describe... it's kinda electro, sort of house-tec, dirty and cool, sweaty and smooth...
