The man is a living legend. He fuses new age/world music with guitar/techno.
Don't get me started on his acid tracks!!!
Man, he is so underestimated.
He is Northe America's Aphex twin.
I love Benn's music with all my heart.

Good non-acid albums by benn:
-M³ (Brown #12 is an outstanding track) -Kirlian Selections -Red Extensions of Me
Although I have yet to here a release of his I didn't enjoy.

I still can't say that i enjoy The Flashbulb fully, i mostly dislike his drill stuff.. A bit like my love/hate for µ-ziq, his melody compositions are amazing, but most of the time his beats just ruin it for me.

I played a show with him once. He was really nice to us and the promoters. A guy in his teens was there, huge fan of FB, wanted his autograph but was to scared to approach him. I was like "Fuck man come on" so I drag him back stage and shove him basically right in front of flashbulb. "Hey this guy really likes your shit can he get an autograph ?!" :D
He took pictures with all of us and was an ideal person to book. Gave us a deal on the show too. Ben Jordan came of as a real gent. Even watched our awful sets before his !
I don;'t know the guy personally or anything but that night we all had a pretty good time !

The Human Action Network & Acidwolf pseudonyms pwn his Flashbulb persona. Welcome To Chicago is seriously ill. That being said, his latest album is so shitty I want to kill. Red extensions is pretty good. I met him too, but he seemed more douchey than gent.

you can dig-up some gold out of his music-mine. and most of the tracks you either love or hate instantly, so everybody who hasnt checked him: go get some! id recommend you try b4 buy and start with: girls suck but you dont & music from my laptop.

didn't he troll around here or watmm some time ago?
all I've heard is the Human Action Network cd. and while it's well produced, sounds more like he's trying to emulate the Tuss on much of it.

I must admit that the Human Action Network - Welcome to Chicago album is quite good. Everybody who like Ceephax may take a listen.
i'm actually suprised i like it. Generally, i don't like his production : you can hear too many presets sounds, everything sound like a music-software demo. I get the same feeling with lasts venetian Snares albums.
get the soul back in IDM !!!

The most conservative sounding IDM artist I think I've heard. I don't think I've ever heard someone bite such a wide variety of talent either. He should hire himself out as a human VST, the plagiaristic boob.

flashbulb is reasonably well-produced, shitty soulless music. and I have two of his albums. it's like own-brand squarepusher or something. all of the production with none of the feeling.

Oh loveeee...his last two or three albums under flashbulb are incredible. All the way through. So underrated. People only hate him in the IDM 'community' because most of them were raped by stringed instruments as children.

literally fucking electronic music up the arse, all this territorial crap.
