'''India:

DJ Benson has been Djing professionally for the past 14 years. Having conquered the clubbing circuit in Mumbai, from where he hails, he moved over to play in Goa, Bangalore, Delhi, Calcutta and Nepal. His endeavor to cross over into the clubbing circuit of Dubai in 1997 has proved to be the key step in his career yet.

UAE:	

The UAE posed a major challenge to him as he worked his way through various clubs in Dubai to make a name for himself and let his music be heard. Hard work did pay off as he moved over to the capital city, Abu Dhabi, when he landed himself with a gig at a club called the Island Exchange in the Forte Grand (currently The Le Royal Meridian). This triggered off an uphill climb in his DJ career and a year and a half later he moved on to play at the Gauloises Club in the Meridian Hotel. This was his home for two years until he decided to take a break and flew off to explore his opportunities in the South East Asian Subcontinent.  Thailand:

Thailand, reputed to be a diverse country with various opportunities for DJs to show off their skills, turned out to be his base. Three months of travelling took him all over the country with gigs in several clubs where he played for crowds of up to 10,000 tourists from all over the globe.

Back to The UAE: 2001 brought him back to Dubai where he took on what was probably the biggest challenge in his DJ career. Copacabana at the Four Points Sheraton, was a brand new night club without direction and DJ Benson, in his time there, turned it into Dubai's Number One Asian Club. He set up the club with various theme nights and it was in there that he started the most popular Asian night in Dubai. 'Bhangra Nights' which is held every Saturday and is till date thriving all over Dubai. Having fulfilled his mission there, he moved on to do a lot of freelance work mainly for corporate events and also did a short stint at Club Desi at the Palm Beach Hotel.  Jimmy Dix:

This brought him to the peak of his career, which was the Saturday Night resident at Jimmy Dix, a high profile Night club, hosting 'The Vibe' reputed to be Dubai's most popular Bollywood Fusion party night. His set is broad casted live on City 101.6 FM every Saturday night from 12 till 2.

Dubai Rain:	

Having proved to be the best in his trade, he was selected to open for the biggest open-air Asian Party which was held at the Le Meridian Mina Seyahi in September of 2004. 'Dubai Rain 2004' brought together the biggest line up in the Asian music scene namely Rishi Rich, Juggy D, Jay Sean, Veronica, Punjabi MC, RDB, Manek E, Ali Zafar and DJ Nasha. Dubai rain then went on to become a yearly event and he was the local legend playing sets along with all the top Dj's and singers from the UK.
