BK hits Cape Town!

BK, a.k.a. Ben Keen is recognised the world over as the most successful and prolific hard dance producer of all time. He has been voted ‘No.1 Hard Dance Producer’ of the year for six years at the ‘Hard Dance Awards’ and is still the best Selling Hard Dance Producer of all time’.

BK’s sound as producer and DJ is ever-changing, always full of energy and renowned for blowing up the dance floor with trance, techno and hard house. His tracks are irresistible to both clubbers and critics but the true measure of his talent is seen in the number of fellow producers and DJs who clamour for a slice of BK’s skills.



Unsurprisingly 2011 has already been a highly successful year for BK. His last five releases are receiving major endorsement from Radio 1’s
Judge Jules and Kutski and reaching the number 1 spot in both beatports and track it downs hard dance / Trance charts. In 2010 under his moniker ‘Black Russian’ reached No.1 in the Ibiza club charts with ‘In for the Kill’ La Roux remix (receiving major support from Tiesto, Ferry Corsten, Armin van Buuren and Sander van Doorn).

He has recently collaborated with Hot chip and Bernared Sumner as part of a massive converse campaign and joined the likes of Vampire weekend, Pharell Williams and Paloma Faith as one of the faces of the brand.
As well as countless remixes he has signed an album deal with
Moshi Moshi and featured on the front cover of DJ mag , been nominated for best british remix and producer of the year with his Hot city alias.

BK’s record label Riot! is continuing to storm the dance charts across several genres and becoming a resident club night consistently selling out Fabric’s awesome new 2500 capacity London club ‘Matter’, which boasts Andy C’s Ram, Sven Vath’s Cocoon and Paul Van Dyke as residents.

BK is a firm favourite at clubs and events around the world. He has had headline appearances at all of the biggest dance events, including Dance Valley, Global Gathering UK, Gatecrasher Summer Sound System UK, Impulse NL, Frantic Hard House Academy UK, Creamfields UK,
Godskitchen, NEC UK, Judgement Sunday Ibiza, Lashed in Ibiza, Gallery UK, Slinky UK, and Code Japan.
He currently calls 2 of the most forward-thinking UK hard dance events home, holding residencies at Storm and of course Riot! at Matter.
