Like so many of Baltimore’s newer crew of Club DJs, Benny Stixx got his start in the mid-90s, jumping out of his bedroom into house parties and small functions. After many countless hours of practice and mixtapes Benny jumped right into nightclubs and bigger functions trail blazed by Club’s first and second-wavers.

Since the early 2000s, Benny has been dropping mixtapes, Club remixes, and lacing local artists with beats, all the while becoming a ubiquitous live DJ, seen and heard around the Baltimore area in places like Gardel’s, Baha Beach Club, Club One and many others. Closer to the early DJs in style and grind, Benny’s modestly paid his dues, gliding into production work and remixing with a deeper sense of self and confidence.

2008 proved to be his breakout year when his bmore club flips of radio hits like “Low”, “Lollipop”, and “Love Lockdown” became club hits, receiving airplay locally on Baltimore’s 92Q and other places throughout the DMV. These mixes went even further finding their way into radio mixes in Chicago, Miami, and Atlanta. Benny stayed consistent with his grind and continued producing and performing at constant live DJ gigs.

In the summer of 2009 Benny was officially signed with Bmore Original Records. His bmore club track “Being That Drunk” received many write-ups and found it’s way in rotation all over the country in places as far as Japan and Australia. Benny’s “Wetter Refix” proved to be his biggest remix yet and was put in constant rotation in the DMV area and satellite radio. Benny has had continual success with his other radio remixes such as “La Calle Ocho” and “Feel It” and has proved to be a staple household name in many mixshows and mixtapes. Benny has completed several “Friday Night Bounce” mixes for the acclaimed Bmore Original Radio Show.

Currently Benny is finishing his soon-to-be released EP and continues with production and remix work as he bounces between constant live DJ gigs and being a father to his six year old daughter.
