BEN ANN / TOCABEN is a German DJ based in Barcelona, known for his deep connection to electronic music and his ability to move between genres with ease. While the name BEN ANN has become a staple in the Circuit and Tribal scene—with energetic, vocal-driven sets that have made waves at events from Sala Apolo and Imperial Barcelona to MAD Lausanne and Marriott Bonvoy—he’s now expanding his musical identity.
To reflect his broader creative direction, starting June 2025, BEN ANN will perform under the name TOCABEN for all sets outside the Circuit and Tribal styles. This includes his growing passion for genres like Tech-House, Afro-House, Berlin Techno, and Nu-Disco. The goal is to create space for more freedom and innovation without being limited by expectations tied to the BEN ANN sound.
Whether playing under BEN ANN or TOCABEN, his sets remain spontaneous, genre-blending experiences—mixing everything from Afro-House rhythms to unexpected pop vocals by artists like Madonna, Dua Lipa, and Shakira. Always live-selected and crowd-focused, his performances are never repeated and always evolving.
Both names are united under one artistic vision and one social media presence, with the distinction serving as a tool for creative clarity rather than division.
Please note: It may take some time for this transition to be reflected across all platforms.
