UK 2024 press.
“Ethereal” (Billboard) electronic producer Ben Böhmer originally released his sophomore album 'Begin Again' via Anjunadeep on September 21, 2021. The album’s release immediately followed his accolade of Best Live [Streamed] Act Award at the AIMs for his performance with Cercle, in what was arguably the most competitive year for live-streamed performances, ahead of artists including Arlo Parks and beabadoobee. In 2021, Ben was also named Spotify’s fastest-growing electronic artist with over 60 million streams, and received a plethora of other support from publications including Vogue UA, who called Ben “the new star of the world electronic scene”, and key names at radio, including Pete Tong at BBC Radio 1, Anna Lunoe at DanceXL Radio on Apple Music 1 and SiriusXM Chill. ‘Begin Again’ comprises 11 tracks, including singles ‘Beyond Beliefs’, ‘Escalate’ (feat. JONAH), ‘Erase’ (feat. lau.ra) and ‘A Matter of Time’, all united by Ben’s uniquely sensitive and emotive production style. Perhaps nowhere is this felt more keenly than on ‘Home’, which, in Ben’s own words, is about “having a deep connection to the one you love the most, your soulmate. No matter where in the world you are, they still feel close to you through an unwavering bond. Nothing could ever change that.”
