MN2S is pleased to welcome Benno Blome to the DJ roster this week.
Born and raised in Cologne, Blome began his musical career in the mid 1990s. He was instrumental in shaping the German Techno scene, inspiring many to take up live mixing and producing.
Through setting up the Berlin-based record label Sender in 2000, Blome has managed to sign, nurture and influence a generation of Techno DJs. Thanks to Blome’s talent and expertise, Sender has since become one of Germany’s premiere Techno labels.
Blome’s production is rooted in classic German Techno, but informed by current trends and sounds. Never one to fall behind, Blome’s willingness to try new things and his timeless mix of minimalism and emotion has allowed his music to remain fresh throughout his career.
Not wanting to be pigeonholed, Blome’s releases often surprise and delight his listeners, with Eramina being a great example of Blome taking his music in an unexpected direction and totally delivering. Eramina’s movie samples and radio snippets combine avant garde production methods with Blome’s trademark Techno stylings to great effect.
Blome’s DJ sets are known for their artful arrangements and intensity. When Blome plays the lights focus on the mixer, leaving the DJ in a private space to best connect with his audience.
Currently on tour in Europe, Blome continues to produce the groundbreaking music that made his name, and play the DJ sets that leave audiences breathless.
