In his DJ sets Ben Klock is aiming at creating an atmosphere that is based on a deep sound, accumulating over long phases into something euphoric in order to explode at the end. In brief: Euphoria with a rough bass.
Even a party atmosphere where hands are up in the air should include a certain class and a deep undertone. His sound spectrum grasps everything from dry and hearty minimal beats to a heard-opening rave orgasms combining old tracks - may it be Chicago, Detroit or European dance music - with the latest hits. Ben's musical roots are manifold. Being a Berlin based DJ in the 90s Ben Klock played all the regulars like Tresor, WMF and Cookies and by now has a residency at Berghain. For him that is the place that perfectly keeps the idea of a big and excessive techno night and at the same time serves as a gamete for new things. Together with Marcel Dettman he is Dettmann / Klock.

After André Galluzzi, Marcel Dettmann and Len Faki, Ben Klock is the fourth of Berghain's fabled resident DJs to be offered the chance to lay out his musical creed on a mix album.
If you expected this to be a relentless tour de force of the kind of monotonous, booming techno Berlin's Berghain club is famous for, you will be in for a surprise: Ben Klock's 'Berghain 04' is a varied and subtle affair, perfectly suited for home listening. What makes this mix stand out first and foremost however is the incredible amount of exclusive tracks that Klock was able to use in his mix.
'Berghain04' starts out with the 1996 ambient classic 'Apricot' by 154, from which it swiftly moves to DVS1's brand-new outing for Transmat, 'Pressure', and an unreleased Marcel Dettmann remix of Junior Boys' 'Work'. More exclusives follow in quick succession: Martyn, Levon Vincent, Jonas Kopp, Rolando, Kevin Gorman, and of course new material by Klock himself: 'Compression Session 1' and 'Elfin Flight'. Tyree's classic 'Nuthin Wrong' gives way to Ben Klock's edit of Brendon Moeller's 'Dust', and Rolando's ambient piece 'Junie' ends the mix as reflective as it began.
Second perhaps only to Deadbeat's 'Radio Rothko', 'Berghain 04' is the most elegant and exciting techno mix we have heard in recent times. Highly Recommended.
