À propos de l?auteur

Obsessed with hip-hop from the age of 12, Ben Murphy caught the music bug early and started collecting records of all kinds as a teenager. Immersing himself in club culture, drum & bass, techno and trip-hop, he voraciously consumed music magazines, and set his sights on becoming a writer, specializing in electronic and dance sounds. After writing reviews and features for blogs and online fanzines, he became news editor at DJ Magazine, and eventually editor-in-chief at the title. He has been writing about music for over 20 years and has contributed to The Guardian, Crack and Time Out.
