Ben Keen, aka BK, is recognised the world over as the most successful and prolific hard dance producer of all time. With worldwide dance chart hits like "Music Is Moving" and "Revolution", BK has reinvented the genre of hard house and breathed new life into the style. In addition to having conquered the world of hard house with his production skills, BK is positioned to take over the global DJ scene, ranking since 2001 as one of DJmag`s top 50 international DJs. He calls his sound "Ever-changing and full of energy" with innovative infusions of trance and techno that redefine the hard house style. He believes that the sound of hard house has definitely changed, and whether producing or playing, the sounds that BK creates represent the future of the genre. BK began his production career at age 16 as a trainee engineer at a London studio and gradually progressed into writing music for film and television. In his spare time, he used the studio`s equipment to experiment with his own sounds, and it was later, at Media Records, that he began producing original tracks. BK later joined Nukleuz Records, the world`s top hard house label, and immediately became known for his profusion of definitive hard house tracks. Since 1995, BK has produced more than one hundred 12 inch singles/remixes, including remixes of Mario Piu ("The Vision"), Mauro Piccotto ("Iguana"), Storm ("Storm Animal"), DT8 ("Destination"), and Tony De Vit ("I Don`t Care"), and recorded tracks for labels ranging from Positiva, Data, and Ministry of Sound to NuLife, Ffrr, and Tidy. Many of his tracks have become UK Top 10 hits, but BK is best known for "Revolution", which with the support of Judge Jules and Dave Pearce, entered BBC Radio One`s daytime rotation in 2002 - a singular accomplishment for a hard house track. BK`s albums and compilations have also garnered huge success, with his series of Nukleuz Presents compilations (including HardHouse Anthems) earning multiple Mixmag "Album of the Year" awards and the 2003 release Extreme Euphoria Mixed By Lisa Lashes, BK, and The Tidy Boys on track to become the highest-selling hard house album ever. BK`s tracks are irresistible to both clubbers and critics, but the true measure of his talent can be seen in the number of fellow producers and DJs who clamour for a slice of BK`s skills.
