From underground raves to jam-packed stages, meet Benwal, the ever-moving whiz kid. Emerging from his deep roots in Groningen's nightlife, the Dutch DJ has stormed stages across Europe and Australia, drawing massive crowds wherever he plays. His rise might look sudden, but it's built on seven years of relentless devotion. A skilled selector and true fan of the culture, he curates authentic, gripping sets that move across genres with unexpected turns. And while he may have helped spark the trance and hard house revival, he's already broadening his horizons, balancing audience-charmer, genre-breaker and taste-maker.

For MALUGI, the dancefloor is his happy place, and his cheeky smile and infectious energy have earned him the nickname "The Happiest Man in Dance Music". But don't let it fool you: underneath is a powerhouse ready to tear clubs apart. Driven by pumping, UK-influenced house, he's become a tastemaker favourite, picking up a BBC Radio 1 Future Star 2025 award and bringing his signature energy to spaces like Panorama Bar, Warehouse Project, Amnesia Ibiza and Awakenings, with two viral Boiler Rooms and a festival summer spanning Glastonbury and Tomorrowland.

Get ready for the two of them going back-to-back at Sónar 2026.
