Cementing himself as one of the most innovative minds to emerge from London’s ever-evolving underground circuit, Ben Sterling is a veritable groove technician whose area of expertise lies in blurring the lines between house and techno. He’s earned plaudits from some of the most trustworthy tastemakers in the industry, with a list that includes the Martinez Brothers, Marco Carola, Eats Everything, Jamie Jones, and Patrick Topping, to name a few. The in-demand producer is slated to host his debut outing on Factory 93 Records with a dark and propulsive club tool. Gleaning from his affinity for acid and electro, ‘Eeez’ contains all the right elements to push dancefloors over the edge. Crisp 808s, sloshing droplet samples, staticky industrial textures, and hissing hats are layered with meticulous precision. A hypnotic spoken word vocal beckons with a commanding allure, while feeding back into the unyielding tension established by the track’s heady, undulating acid-fuelled arpeggiations.
“I’ve always been extremely into electro and acid records” says Sterling. “Sometimes, I just get in the groove making certain style beats, and this came out one day.”
The Planet X label-boss is in the thick of a slammed schedule of high-profile shows around the globe, hosting a string of dates on the White Isle, including multiple nights at institutions from the likes of Solid Grooves at DC10, Paradise, and Music On throughout the season. Looking towards Stateside, he has an upcoming gig at HARD Summer LA, as well as a set at EDC Orlando in November.
Ben Sterling’s latest creation “Eeez” is another certified club-pleaser being added to the arsenal of one of the more versatile names to emerge from the underground in recent memory.
