His constant drive to send a dance floor through space keeps a flowing stream of classic club, techno, acid and post-modern disco at your feet, just waiting to tango. Nark currently resides at The Eagle in Seattle throwing a kaleidoscope of events including Arf!, Shade and most famously Dickslap, a party that started as a political movement and has since turned into a traveling event, as well as running Bottom Forty, a Seattle collective of DJs, music sharing site, podcast and monthly event at Kremwerk. Currently he also curates an underground after hours referred to as the "Why," and an annual pride festival weekend which attracts thousands and raises money for the LGBTQ community of Seattle.

Holding down residencies with Sound Ethic, Subsidize and Produkt, these affiliations have allowed him to play along side such master producers as Christian Martin, Hatiras and Max Graham. In the last 13 years, Seattle's crowds have heard a great mixture of both 4/4 styles and bass music from his repertoire. Having played gigs all over northwest, Seattle and Portland, Las Vegas, the O Ultra Lounge in Cancun, and at the legendary Nikki Beach Club in Cabo San Lucas, Ben can properly move a crowd with ease. Whether its rocking Seattle's finest night clubs, beautiful beach terraces and pool parties, or annihilating sets at an outdoor festival weekender, you will always find Ben mixing filthy bass lines and bright progressive melodies that destroy dance floors. ~~~~~ AWGGIE Sound Ethic http://www.soundcloud.com/awggie http://www.awggie.com Known for whompy bassline and house, Awggie is known to deliver music to get you dancing.
