BENNY BENASSI in The Lab NYC

Listen to Mixmag's 'Perfect Set Closers' playlist on Spotify:

Mixmag and The Smirnoff Sound Collective present The Lab NYC

The Lab NYC is Mixmag and Smirnoff Sound Collective's weekly afterwork party where we stream the best American and international DJs from the intimate space connected to our Brooklyn office. This Thursday May 18, Mixmag welcomes dance music icon Benny Benassi to play a special Lab NYC set.

As a name completely synonymous with electronic music and dance culture, Benny Benassi needs little introduction. He's best known as a multi-million selling record artist, a main stage champion and the producer behind arguably the biggest club track in history, 'Satisfaction'.

In past successes, Benassi has proved to be a superstar producer, working with the likes of T-Pain, Jean-Baptsiste and Skrillex, becoming a Grammy winning artist and performing on stage alongside John Legend.

Most recently, Benny released a new studio album in 2016. 'Danceaholic' was his first full LP in five years, placing on the Top 50 UK charts for 10 weeks and collecting 40 million Spotify streams.

Lab NYC Video Production : Rocky Ramniceanu / Oliver Correa / Sam Finzi / Yurek Akbar

Saw Benny Around the same time. Since we are older (62/59), he rolled down the window of the limo after the concert and asked us how old we are and if we like the music. WE LOVE THE MUSIC! He didn't have to "push me" to dance to it!! Great guy, great music!

This guy got me into Electronic music, such a legend!

I only knew this guy from his "Satisfaction" music video. Then I listened to his mixes, and it's quite a surprise how different his style is. Love his style very much!

Бенасси порвал весь мир в начале двух тысячных. Прекрасные времена были. Уважуха
