Ben Wild

Ben Wild is a NYC-based DJ, producer and promoter whose sets explore the breadth of house music. His grooves — deep, dark, afro, tech, jackin’, disco, and organic — are always tuned to the unseen current that moves through bodies and binds us in rhythm. He started DJing at 19 and by 22 had opened Halcyon, Brooklyn’s iconic record shop and hangout described by Time Out as “The beating heart of NYC's underground club scene.” 2025 marks Ben’s 30th year behind the decks.

From New York landmarks like Output, Sony Hall, and House of Yes to international stages in London, Medellín, Madrid, and beyond, Ben conjures experiences that are both ecstatic and grounding. A resident at DISCONNECT, Leg Up on Life, Burning Man and Fire Island’s Meat Rack, he sees the dance floor as more than a party — it’s an ancient ritual. For millennia, we’ve gathered to dance to the drum; Ben’s sets carry that sacred pulse forward, offering the chance to remember, to connect, and to move together as one.
