The passion that pulses on DJ BENIN's turntables is rooted in a humble home, yet one rich in dedication and love. Far from the illuminated stages and electronic beats, his story begins with the daily grind of his parents: a manicurist and a bricklayer. While his mother, with the precision of an artist, tended to the beauty and well-being of nails, and his father, with the strength and art of a builder, raised homes and dreams with bricks and cement, little BENIN absorbed something much deeper than the work routine. He inherited the artistic sensibility and the unconditional love for music that, in some way, was always present in his environment. From a very young age, the sounds of the radio, the melodies that accompanied the manual labor, and the rhythms that escaped from the neighbors' speakers became his true inheritance. The DJ booth wasn't the only soundbox in his life; the click-clack of the nail files and the sound of the trowel hitting the mortar were the soundtrack to his childhood. It was in this contrast, between delicacy and strength, that DJ BENIN forged his talent. Although he didn't follow his parents' professions, the discipline of the manicurist and the perseverance of the bricklayer are the foundation of his career. He proved that the true inheritance is not in the trade, but in the passion passed down, transforming heartbeats into beats that make the world dance today. https://youtube.com/@djbeninn?si=C5VBihsjHSLKHNOF
