It’s always an absolute pleasure working with Benny. Truly a creative, artist and subject matter expert in music. I’ve worked with Benny on a couple personal projects including a short-film and the quality of music production elevated my project.

TYME is an endless sound that gives you the perfect vibes. The music is always a hit and never a miss. It always puts you in a place where you can visualize being in your happy place or even put you in a good mood when you’re feeling low. Being a creative, I’m always looking for the next drop to put behind the videos I create and it always matches perfectly. But if I were you I’d check it out and see for myself!
