Between 2001 and 2009, Benza released a bunch of albums and singles on Demon Tea, Sonic Dragon, Planet B.E.N and our own SUB Label, and now after a brief hiatus he's back.

As we move a little bit closer towards the release of his new album 'A Map of Everything' on Psy-Harmonics with the final mix down completed and pre-masters in. Benza has compiled a few mixes as inspiration to to his forthcoming release.

"I'm finding huge joy in revisiting the tunes that have influenced me over time. I was really lucky to have discovered this sound a little before the turn of the century, IMHO the absolute peak of the psychedelic trance movement. At the same time, however, I continue to be blown away by the continued evolution of this music. Production values have skyrocketed and the capacity of software to make pure magic is astonishing compared to where we were back then."

And so, I've put together 2 sets of music that blow my mind. One old, one new. (Something borrowed, something fu**in' funky.)
Back | Front - A celebration of where we've been.

Front | Back - A snapshot of where we are.

Enjoy these mixes!

A Map of Everything by Benza. Coming out on Psy-Harmonics 2024

It never stops evolving; this complex, fascinating sound that persists in memory and presence and refuses to yield. It's a privilege to watch, study and learn from it. Alongside the traditions and trailblazing of its past, persists a movement that continues to develop in sound, texture and productio...

FM3 - BUDDHA MACHINE SE - now available (shipping Australia wide)

The Buddha Machine SE, comes in two sleek metallic colors — Silver and Graphite.

Features 9 new loops, upgraded sound quality and user experience. Louder speaker and 2 new individual side buttons make device control more direct and intuitive.

What is it? The Buddha Machine is a small plastic box that plays 9 meditative music loops composed by Christiaan Virant and Zhang Jian.

In 2005 the Beijing-based duo of Christiaan Virant and Zhang Jian released their first, soon to be iconic “Buddha Machine” loop box, a quirky pocket soundsystem that propelled sound art into the consumer mainstream. It spawned a whole cultural movement, fuelled by Brian Eno professing his love for them, and an era of live show "Buddha Boxing" improvisations.

The Buddha Machine is a truly unique musical device that prefers to sit in the background, quietly and gently working its sonic magic.
