Good to be here...check this guy out

I don't know why i haven't heard of this site before. I like progressive and house music. I live in Houston. Has anybody on here ever heard of Ben Watt? He came and played here a few months ago and he was amazing. I bought a few of his mixes since then but they are much housier. When he played live he played harder stuff. Really hot music for me and my girls.

Ben Watt used to be part of Everything but the Girl if I'm not mistaken. I was wondering what he spun live. Don't forget Digweed is coming to Houston pretty soon. [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23598"]http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23598[/URL] this is the info. Plus Hernan Cattaneo in Dallas on April 8th

Ben Watt if you didn't already know is one half of Everything But The Girl. He has a regular night here in England called 'BuzzinFly' and formerly 'LazyDog' - both free sunday night events. (both nights have websites) His mix CD's are very 'loungey' i'll agree but when he plays out he's far more upfront.

It's still listed as (TBA) but the event capacity is listed as 1000, which happens to be the same capacity as club Seven which is usually the host of this caliber of show. I'll keep checking and update accordingly. It's actually on groovetickets.com

Still is I believe. [URL="http://www.ebtg.com"]www.ebtg.com[/URL] I caught him once in Toronto and he rocked the house. Ive always wanted to cathc a buzz in fly night, but that never happens here stateside unless he takes it on tour. His live sets are a lot more involved than his studio work. He knows how to work that classic house sound.
