FRANCE

Immersed in music from an early age, this classically trained musician unleashes a kaleidoscope of influences in every mix. Behind the decks since the early ’90s, his sound carries the spirit of electronic pioneers like Kraftwerk and Jarre. Never dull, his sets are sharp, high-energy, and unapologetically trance-infused. Both composer and DJ, Ben Crafter made his mark in the 2000s with releases on iconic labels led by Claude Monnet and Antoine Clamaran. Today, he spins across France at standout events such as Kosmik, Dolly, Beardrop, B4Bears, Matinale, Code69, Bearwash, Boxx, The 69 Party, Megalo, and Mix Live Malabar — while holding a blazing residency at the legendary Blitz in Nice.
