Joined by DJ, Promoter, Bar owner and all round entrepreneur , Ben Nott.

Ben's musical journey began in the USA at the end of the 90’s, where Chicago house and Detroit Techno legends showed Ben the light and lead him to the decks then into the promoter world, There was no turning back, the next 5 years saw Ben touring the states playing vinyl at raves and clubs while also throwing his own Xanadu shows which had up to 5k people in attendance! The new Millennium saw Ben relocating to the UK and regularly DJing all over Europe plus hosting his own Club night; Ultra, which was based in Birmingham and at one point was a feature on Pete Tongs BBC radio one show as one of the best nights in the country!

After a decade of being heavily involved in all aspects of Europe’s club culture, A new adventure was calling–Sydney Australia was next, where he worked with Funktion OneAudio at all the big festivals and built his own party BLUEPRINT, considered one of the city’s best underground parties today. Which ironically enough was my first music event in Sydney 9 years ago at the Bristol Arms which has reopened it's doors after a long closure in recent weeks!

In his own words 'I’ve always looked for melody and journey in all music I listen to and play, DJ sets are a story” Since the conception of Blueprint 10 years ago Ben has held x300+events all over Sydney and Melbourne, has featured some of the world’s best underground artist, held weekly Saturday and Sunday events at Kings Cross and Barangaroo, Plus Bunka! An 800 person carpark under Sydney city, while also playing for S.A.S.H, CicoLoco, Electric Gardens, Subsonic, Burdekin, Revolver, Breakfast Club, We Love, Return to Rio, Strawberry fields, kissFm and just about every other promoter and club around Sydney and a far!All this while running his own Restaurant in Sydney The Lucky Cat!

Recently the restaurant has moved from the beaches and now taken on a new form, after years of experience in events and the restaurant game the Lucky Cat 2.0 was born, a new creative hub in the heart of the city bringing some much welcomed life back to Oxford Street now consisting of a restaurant, cocktail lounge and nightclub.

Thanks for sharing your story with me Ben, I loved hearing everything you've done through the years and congratulations on your recent milestones. I'll look forward to a night our in the Lucky Cat 2.0 soon!
