The world-renowned DJ has posted a cryptic update on his personal website.

A tweet from around 10am today (February 21st) by globally-respected selector and Hessle Audio founder, Ben UFO, linked to benufolondon.co.uk with the caption "some music to listen to here and a sign up thingy for some exciting goings on later in the year".

The music he's referring to is a mix uploaded to Soundcloud in the last 24 hours, listen to it below:


The mix is titled "28.02.18 1PM" so whatever the Hessle Audio boss is planning, perhaps an update can be expected then. There are endless possibilities of what this could refer to, the obvious answer is some kind of event, perhaps a residency, a tour, or something even bigger. 

Earlier this year Artwork announced the first iteration of Art's House: A Lovely London Festival - a day festival featuring Artwork and DJ Harvey on a single stage throughout the entire day and night. Perhaps a bit extravagant for the usually under-the-radar Ben UFO, but a possibility nonetheless.

Finally, being renowned for being exclusively a selector, much like Jackmaster (although that is up for debate following the release of the 2017 Mastermix) the final possibility is that the London-based DJ has decided to move into production, having pretty much one-hundred-percented the DJ circuit.

Stay tuned for updates.
