Cutting his teeth with years of running and DJing for his own nights in Manchester and now producing records with an ever filling gig diary we’re pleased to report that we’ve managed to pin down Ben (busiest man in dance) Pearce for a set at this year’s festival.

As well as DJing and producing Ben is also Creative Director at Purp & Soul; an already established brand by friend Chris Farnworth. Together they have formed a label which is going from strength to strength forging family ties with a raft of cutting edge artists already signed up, the man continues his accent to greatness, we’re just glad he could find the time to come sprinkle a little of his magic on the good fields of Bestival this year.
