This is going to make you freak; we have a master in our presence for our podcast series. That’s right, the one and only Ben Sims has graced with an hour of techno glory that blurs the line between funky, furious, groovy and grandiose. Sims has been on a special sort of tip lately, with his Theory label churning out stunning release after stunning release, while his Disco Trix series has been nothing short of monumental in terms of creating unique DJ tools with a throwback twist. And if that wasn’t enough, he’s been crafting unique club nights under the name of Machine, which has been held at legendary venues such as Berghain and Trouw with the likes of DVS1, Luke Slater and Rolando along for the ride. Next month, he’ll be quite busy, touring the US for a bit and then coming home to another edition of Machine at Corsica Studios with a legendary lineup in tow; featuring the likes of Floorplan, Surgeon and Kirk Degiorgio joining him for the epic night in London. To celebrate all these wonderful things, Ben has given us a relentless mix of jams for your enjoyment. Check it out, dance like no one’s around and enjoy.
