Benjamin's best known track is his remix of Michael Jackson's Billie Jean. He was raised in London and was a member of the London School Symphony Orchestra, playing percussion. After graduating in sound engineering he started working for Mr. C as he was setting up The End. It was at this point that he first met Paskin.
Paskin is also from London, starting his DJ career at the age of sixteen while working at Camden Market. Soon after he starting DJing at warehouse parties with Mr. C. It was at one of these parties that they discovered the building that would become The End. Paskin's father is an architect and designed the club
Their first single to reach the UK singles chart was "Love Story" from the album Night Works. "It's Up To You (Shining Through)" peaked on the singles chart at #25 and stayed on the charts for three weeks.
