BEN ARSENAL

Ben Arsenal is an international ambassador using sound to unite diverse dancefloors. His musicality speaks volumes of experience weaving tales for the audience. Heavy drums, folkloric elements, and infectious soulful grooves are the foundation to Arsenal’s distinct sets.

As a DJ, he has played as far south as Florianopolis, Brazil and as far north as Montreal, Canada, and as far East as Beirut, Lebanon. His sound is closely tied to his interests and studies in international culture and folkloric music fused with modern electronic sounds. He has played support for Felix da Housecat, Eats Everything, Riva Starr, Amtrac, Bob Moses, and more.

As a producer, he has worked with Grammy winning musicians and recently contributed as a recording engineer with Pablo Batista’s percussion performance on H.E.R.’s ‘Fight for You’ which won an oscar for ‘best original song’. Arsenal also recently signed his first major release on Universals Musics Middle East/ North Africa subsidiary of Morrocos Mokatar Gania and Gnawa Soul ‘Alla a Sudan (Ben Arsenal Remix). He currently leads Worldtown Soundsystem- one of Philadelphia's favorite up and coming live acts.
