“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 Jupiter Disco, Anything, Dada · often with cruz ctrl, STEEN, DrToof, none of them here that night

Beaming in from a small suburb in IL, esoe has been a local creative force Starting with graffiti at a young age, esoe has a deep appreciation for underground culture which naturally led them to start experimenting with djing from age 15. Early influences include Busy P, Teebs, Feadz, and DJ Mehdi. Fast forward to 5 years later esoe dropped out of design school to move to Chicago with friends. Quickly esoe made connections within the underground scene and began to throw house and loft parties. Along with that came design work that he would do for his own mix series homesounds. esoe began to get deeper into 90s house, dub techno, tech house, jungle and uk soul and his mixing style started to become a little more distinct. Infectious club chuggers, spoken word house, and deep but lush techno are the signatures of esoe's sound palette. In 2019 esoe teamed up with Garrett David to launch Global Swing, a chicago based dance music label. Shortly after esoe relocated to Brooklyn, NY were you can catch them spinning funk at a wine bar or digging through one of the numerous record stores.Their RA profile lists Global Swing and Something For Your Mind.Recently at Black Flamingo, Earthly Delights, Mansions · often with Valentin Lamar, ALIKHAN, aka-Sol, none of them here that night
