Anito, also spelled anitu, refers to ancestor spirits, nature spirits, and deities in the indigenous Philippine folk religions from the precolonial age to the present. They are a co-organizer of the creative collective planetqueer and love building community through music. They also host a bimonthly radio show called Trip Report on 8ball Radio and previously hosted a radio show on Half Moon Bk called BAKUNAWA FM. Their sets are multi-genre but rooted in jungle, footwork, hard drum, club, and anything focused on bass or breaks. They have played at venues including Elsewhere, Mood Ring, Mansions, Casa Maya, Purgatory, Bar Jade, and Rebecca's. They have also released music on compilations such as FML Rave hosted by SUCIA! and DJ Manny and a mix for Somersault Records.Recently at Mood Ring, Wonderville, Elsewhere · often with Alex Viper, MF BUTCH, Düsht, none of them here that night
“Ben Zo has brought his acid-infused, harmonic mixing to vastly-different venues throughout Brooklyn including H0L0, Mansions, SILO, Trans-Pecos and Xanadu; and for every conceivable set time, whether it's sunset at Fourth World, New Year's Eve all-night-long at Happyfun Hideaway, or opening as well as closing Bossa Nova Civic Club, Jupiter Disco and Mood Ring, among other local cornerstones.”

Ben Zo has brought his acid-infused, harmonic mixing to vastly-different venues throughout Brooklyn including H0L0, Mansions, SILO, Trans-Pecos and Xanadu; and for every conceivable set time, whether it's sunset at Fourth World, New Year's Eve all-night-long at Happyfun Hideaway, or opening as well as closing Bossa Nova Civic Club, Jupiter Disco and Mood Ring, among other local cornerstones. A versatile selector with a filmmaking background, his consistently cosmic palette largely encompasses heady house and celestial techno, under the heavy influence of Italo, IDM, trance and other melodic samples. Blending the familiar and esoteric in search of vistas that evoke the natural world, he crafts uniquely psychedelic moments that echo long after in thought. He is the organizer of BUSH DÜF, a Bushwick-based party focused on 'cosmic, colorful and cathartic' techno. His guest mixes have been aired by other stations in New York such as 8 Ball Radio and Newtown Radio (of which he is a former resident), and around the world including Internet Public Radio, London's Subtle Radio, Athens' Fade Radio, Bangkok Community Radio and a three-hour mix for Manila Community Radio.Recently at Alphaville, Jade, Fiction Bar · often with cruz ctrl, STEEN, DrToof, none of them here that night
