Benjamin Wylie (Born 25th, July 1989 in Dublin, Ireland) is an electronic music producer and a singer songwriter. Raised in Frankston, Australia, Wylie created the 4 piece rock band “Slayain” in 2005 with longtime collaborator Sebastian Paez. And has been performing hundreds of gigs all over the country. They released their first CD in 2005 called ‘Pacified Lies’, Then in 2007 won a battle of the bands and ended up in the studio for 3 months bringing out an 8 track EP called ‘Modern Day Revelations’. In 2008 the band took a break and went back into the studio to create ‘Brace Tactics’ a 4 track which went un-released. In 2011 with a lineup change the band is back with a new song and upcoming music video. Through the harshness of the music industry and the popular music culture seeming bleak, Wylie decided to take a new direction. Drawing inspiration from such musical pioneers as Radiohead, Four Tet, Bjork, Skrillex and Nathan Fake – a new sound and direction was created. Described as ‘Electronic Dance that moves you – to nervous’. In March 2012 Benjamin Wylie was signed to N.O.I.A. Records. The New EP Lights and Crafts will be available soon through their Beatport.“This is going to sound strange, but i’m going to play it anyway…” – Benjamin Wylie |
