BIOGRAPHY "BEN SIMS"
Since creating his label Theory Recordings towards the end of 1997, the London DJ and producer Ben Sims has not stopped responding to the call of the jungle in which the dance floor becomes when he is in the booth. Only an animal of the dishes like Ben Sims is able to break the maxim that says that the good producer is rather limited when it is put to mix or vice versa. His technique is exquisite -he started to take an interest in hip hop when he was only ten years old- and his productions enjoy full board in the suitcases of the most famous DJs on the techno planet. That magical triumvirate that form texture, rhythm and groove has no secrets for the Briton who, like so many others, has background in pirate radio stations. From there to the booths of some small clubs that start to trust in house and hip hop - many of their followers would pay for an audio of some of those seminal sets - until the Sims cache starts to raise zeros after being hired. by the Berlin agency Dy-Na-Mix. With the signing, it is raining offers to reside clubs such as The Orbit, Voodoo and House of God. That's when Ben Sims begins to heel towards techno but without forgetting his funk roots. In fact, his first productions are indebted to a combination between Chicago Funk and tribal house (something obscure). It becomes one of the faces of what some call tribal Techno. Maybe Manipulated - and the remix that made him the Swedish Adam Beyer - is his best known track by the general public. In some interviews Sims has described his musical production as a natural continuation of his youthful interests. He also recognizes that what he likes best is to play, well above production - he always adduces that his is a solo exercise - although afterwards that purely onanistic activity appears on different labels, Primate, Primevil, Code Red, Tresor, Phont Music and Pure Plastic, and end up in the hands of Jeff Mills or Carl Cox.
In 2013 he is responsible for a new installment of the Fabric series where he has been a fixture in recent years, both as a DJ and producer, with a mix composed of 44 themes inspired by the dark Room 2 of the London club. A year later he decides to close his label Theory and does it through the front door, with a triple vinyl that includes a handful of songs signed by the veteran British artist accompanied by remixes of Surgeon, Marcel Dettmann, DVS1 and Luke Slater as Planetary Assault Systems.
