Artists

Nowadays, it's so easy for artists to get lost in the noise of electronic music's ever-growing and perpetually evolving landscape. Thankfully, for Berliner Ben Rau, a definitive sonic signature combined with aplomb from constant advocacy of some of dance music's most respected labels has been enough to keep him hoisted above the industry's saturation and hailed as a recognised House music tastemaker globally.

Anyone already privy to Ben's indistinguishable groove-centric and bass-heavy underground musical palette will know why his art has become commonplace on FUSE London, Defected, MicroHertz, Eastenderz, PIV and many more of the most renowned labels around. For those unfamiliar, the continuous support of Marco Carola, Joseph Capriati, Mochakk, Hot Since 82, Jamie Jones, Michael Bibi, Pawsa, Dennis Cruz, Enzo Siragusa, Archie Hamilton, East End Dubs, Max Dean, Prunk, among countless others, should be more than enough to pique your interest.

Having regularly appeared on some of the world's biggest and most sought-after stages, including DC10 Ibiza, Space Miami, Glastonbury Festival, Amnesia Ibiza, Printworks London and The Beams London, Ben's reputation as a DJ and Producer continues to grow on a global scale.

Pursuing his artistic interests has brought great success for Ben, and they have lived parallel to his commitment to curating several commendable label projects. With INKAL, Ben has an avenue to release music without restriction on its sound or vision policy, which has already led to several offerings filled with his most authentic artistic self. With META, Ben has built a platform to recognise and support established artists and talented newcomers, credited with helping to launch the careers of Josh Baker, Chris Stussy, Toman, Rossi., DJ Steaw, M-High, RUZE, Robbie Doherty, George Smeddles and many more.

With 2024 already in full swing for Ben Rau, including well-received releases on Defected's DFTD label and his INKAL imprint, he has his sights set on the second half of the year with new music to come on PIV, META, Defected, and several dates in Ibiza, not forgetting the start of his INKAL / META world tour, kicking off in South America.
