the whole biography
Sheepshead is a Brooklyn born-and-raised DJ, curator and host of Newype Rhythms on Inverted Audio. His unconventional selections span bass music, house, UK Funky, UKG, dubstep, drum 'n bass, jungle, and ambient, consistently challenging the constraints of tempo and genre. With a magnetic methodology to mixing, his whimsical style has secured him slots at Unsound Festival, NTS, The Lot Radio, Rinse France, SWU.FM and more. Not only does his expansive repertoire reinforce his panache to adapt, but his knack for reading the room also allows him to connect with crowds on a personal level - knowing when to drop a banger or bring out a chuckle at the right time.Recently at Xanadu, Honey's, Million Goods · often with Sister Zo, Martini, nataliepops, 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 Beverly's NYC, SILO, Mood Ring · often with cruz ctrl, STEEN, DrToof, none of them here that night
