From cheeky YouTube stunts to commanding festival stages, Ben Gerrans’ story reads like something out of a movie. He launched his channel back in 2015 with prank‑heavy videos like “MAN VS WATERMELON,” quickly amassing hundreds of thousands of views and a devoted audience

.But a trip to Europe opened his eyes to the world of rave culture, and soon he was back home running small DJ parties for friends — nights that went viral and set the stage for his explosive pivot into dance music
.
Fast forward a few years and Gerrans is blending trance, techno and dance into his own “signature euphoric” sound, remixing Mac Miller’s “The Spins” into a breakout hit and dropping originals like “I Wanna Be,” “English Lad” and “Not Enough”

His high‑energy sets have sold out clubs across Australia and landed him on festival bills at Ultra Australia, Spilt Milk, Listen Out and Your Paradise

Yet after reaching the top at home, he decided to risk it all by relocating to the UK — swapping sure‑thing headlines for underground gigs and the chance to prove himself all over again.

Hit play to hear Ben talk about why he left a dream run in Australia for a new challenge abroad, the lessons he learned throwing house parties and how he’s chasing the next level of his creative journey.
