Run it Red with Ben Sims by Ben Sims

March 21, 2019 Ben Sims 'Run It Red' 050

Ben Sims Presents Run It Red 050 (tracklist below)

March's show has new cuts from Anastasia Kristensen, DJ Spiderwebbed, DMX Crew, Mark Flash, Heiko Laux and Robert Hood to name just a few. Also, it's the 50th show! Yep, Run It Red is 50 episodes young and I'm (all joking aside) genuinely fucking delighted!! In just over 4 years I've dropped just under 3500 tracks, in just over 131 hours of new music and i'm really very proud of reaching the big 5.0!

I love doing this show and celebrating all the fresh beats that come my way every month, I especially love doing it on NTS - it's such a great radio station. The balance of styles, the many guest stints and monthly residencies, being a station that can boast having legands like Jeff Mills or Andy Weatherall as contributors while channeling the vibe of a golden era pirate is simply amazing - it's so good to be part of the family.

I've, pretty much, had a regular radio show since the 90s and had spots on a number of legal, illegal, online and digital stations over the years (inc Atmosphere FM, Centre Force, Stomp Radio, Chillin fM, Deep Frequency, Rinse FM and many more) but Run it Red is the show that's been my most consistent, most successful and (dare I say it) most professional.The focus of solely new music (bought or been sent in the 4 weeks previous to the show) means I'm constantly on the look out for beats. It puts me in touch with lots of new artists and labels that i might have otherwise not been plus loads of the material for my own labels and sets was originally sent in for the show and it's R.I.R. where I first test it out, so the show is the really the centre of everything I do in this Techno world now and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Huge love to the NTS crew for the support and opportunity, and a sincere, heartfelt thank you to everyone who sends me music or listens to the show, it truly wouldn't be possible without you! The next show goes out live at midnight on Saturday night/Sunday morning of the 30th March via www.nts.live .
