Benjamin Philippe Zulauf

(Hummingbird, OHM Series, Fourier Transform/UK)

The Swiss, British and Australian multinational has been exploring machine made music since the late 90s, recreating the vibrant sounds emanating out of the scenes in Detroit, Chicago and London on an old MC-303 and Juno 106 synthesiser. To date his sound is still very much influenced by the genres of House, Acid, Techno and Breakbeat from these cities and beyond.

His studio today is a strong collection of Roland units, keeping true to the authentic sounds of the 303, 909 and 808 in his productions. This is also evident in his releases on his own imprint Hummingbird, a factor that has seen regular support for his creations from a growing list of industry acts such as Laurent Garnier, DJ Rolando, Vince Watson, Danny Tenaglia, Roy Davis Jr., DJ Sprinkles, DJ Bone, Ian Pooley, Fred P, nd_Baumecker, DVS1, Colin Dale, Marcel Dettmann, Slam, Tintonton Duvante, Trevor Rockcliffe, Truncate, Terry Frances and on NTS radio.


As a DJ his journey has taken him around the World to play and to venues like La Ruche, Club der Visionäre, Sunday Breakfast Zurich, Griessmuehle, Brown Alley, Freedom Mills, MOS New Delhi and FUMP Thailand. Taking the helm as support act for DJs like Eric Powell, Brothers’ Vibe, Pier Bucci, Simon Coyle, Il Bosco, John Heckle, Hot Since 82, Stimming, Live & Roby, Shonky, Placid, Camea, Matthew Styles and Tobi Neumann.
