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 Happyfun Hideaway, Coney Island Boardwalk, SILO · often with STEEN, DrToof, Dio Garcia, none of them here that night
“Cruz Ctrl is a Dominican-American artist from New York City.”
