Ben Westbeech has his roots steeped in the Bristolian music scene
and is a producer, vocalist, DJ and classically trained cellist
and pianist who lives in Ibiza.

As a teenager, he got hooked on knock-off rave tapes and bought
his first decks when he was only 12 and went to his first parties
at Bagleys in London´s Coal Drops Yard.

He has since worked under many aliases and switched music styles,
which he says is due to the fact he makes music for himself, not
an audience.

Ben´s work has ranged from Jazz to hip hop, house and drum and
bass and he has worked with a broad array of talent, from DJ
Marky and Redlight to Kelis and Gilles Peterson, and combines his
collaborative instincts with making his own stuff and running his
own record label.

His latest record which is scheduled for June is called
Everything is Within You and Ben gave us an exclusive listen and
chance to include one, as yet unreleased track, at the end of the
episode, All in You (46.10).
