Ahead of the release of his eagerly awaited sophomore album, #Bensley releases the stunning single ‘#Hard_Times’ featuring the sumptuous vocals of #Emer_Dineen.
Already sounding like a classic, ‘#Hard_Times’ demonstrates why #Bensley is regarded as one of the scene’s most exciting and innovative producers by elegantly fusing Drum & Bass with elements of #Jazz. #Bensley cleverly layers melancholic piano chords with a modulated bassline alongside his impressive alto saxophone playing, combined with the rich, soulful vocals of #Emer_Dineen.
‘#Hard_Times’ features clips from an interview that #Paul_Desmond conducted with #Charlie_Parker, both of whom are two of #Bensley’s favourite saxophonists.
‘#Hard_Times’ is an exciting taster for what listeners can expect from #Bensley’s second album, ‘#Muskoka’, released on #RAM_Records in Summer 2019.
#Bensley’s ground-breaking 2015 debut album ‘#Next_Generation’ won him widespread acclaim, including from leading selectors #Zane_Lowe, #MistaJam, #Friction, #Zeds_Dead and #DJ_Fresh. This debut was followed by celebrated singles ‘#Outsider’, ‘#Tiptoe’, and ‘#Slither’, plus official remixes for the likes of #Flux_Pavilion, #Azari & #III, and #Camo & #Krooked.
