Red Bull Studios presents a series of explosive aftershows with Benga, the electronic tour de force and Midas-gilded master of production.
16TH FEBRUARY: NEWCASTLE – COSMIC BALLROOM
17TH FEBRUARY: GLASGOW – MARCH ARCHES
1ST MARCH: MANCHESTER – JOSHUA BROOKS
From humble beginnings on the nascent dubstep scene, Benga whipped what was inaugurally an underground rumble into a global music frenzy, spear-heading a movement and growing to become the heavyweight superstar he is today. Following last year’s six-part series chronicling the rise and rise of the DJ, from the club-floors of Croydon to the global stage, Benga’s collaboration with Red Bull Studios re-emerges with a series of intimate live aftershows. The events follow the Example tour, for which Benga lends his deft-handed mastery as the support act.
Benga’s musical career has unfolded strength by strength, thriving in tandem with his maturation as an electronic pioneer and knack for penning an addictive beat.
Benga’s musical career has unfolded strength by strength, thriving in tandem with his maturation as an electronic pioneer and knack for penning an addictive beat. His long-term friendship and collaborations with fellow producers Skream and Artwork, insatiable drive, and unrivalled talent has pushed him to the frontier of the dubstep scene and beyond, ever expanding and perfecting his sound. These aftershows crown what has been a prodigious year for Benga, from arriving at Snowbombing via helicopter to his first solo showcase at XOYO. When it comes to dancefloors across the globe thudding under the bewitched stomps of its crowd, Benga has a lot to answer for, and Red Bull Studios are more than a little bit excited to host this series of aftershows and find out just how spellbound one can be.
