Biographie
Ben fut influencé par de nombreux artistes. Quand il était au lycée, il écoutait principalement du Metal avec des goupes tels KoRn, SoulFly, Incubus, Primus, Henry Rollins, Rage Against The Macine.
Il était toujours à la recherche d’une musique violente avec des paroles et un flow enjoués. Il a découvert le Hardcore en 2000 lorsqu’un ami l’invite dans une rave.
De plus sa sœur faisait partie d’un Sound System : Realm of Reality ce qui lui permit de découvrir de très bonnes choses et en particulier le Hardcore.
Il accrocha tout de suite à cette rythmique fracassante 4*4 !
Il a alors commencé à créer ses propres morceaux avec Tuareg puis avec Fruity Loops, logiciel qui le décida à se lancer véritablement dans la production de Hardcore.
Un de ces ami lui donna le nom de Producer Snafu (« snafu » est une abbréviation qui fut utilisée pendant la Seconde Guerre Mondiale et signifiant : « Situation Normal All Fucked Up »).
Il a commencé à produire des morceaux mêlant Hardcore & Drum’n’bass puis il s’est tourné vers le Breakcore.
Il produit également de la musique Amigaïste et de l’IDM lorsqu’il a le vague à l’âme…
Actuellement il travaille sur Fruity Loops et Cool Edit et il utilise de nombreux instruments VST & VSTI.

United States Biography
Influences range from a lot of things. Ben was into a lot of metal at first with the whole KoRn, SoulFly, Incubus, Primus, Henry Rollins, Rage Against The Machine type deal when he was in high school.
He was always looking for the hardest music he could find with some dope lyrics...
He was introduced to the hardcore scene around 2000 when a friend of him invited him to a rave. His sister was also part of a party crew by the name of “Realm of Reality” and he had access to all these cool old school remixes that she would get from her friend and what caught his ear was the Hardcore.
Just the consistency of this pounding bass repeating in a 4x4 pattern was just so amusing.
He started making some music with a program named Tuareg and then with Fruity Loops which really decided him to become a Hardcore producer.
A friend of him gave him the name of Producer Snafu (“snafu” was a word used during WW II that means “Situation Normal All Fucked Up”).
He started with Hardcore & Drum’n’bass and then moved on to Breakcore and got sad with Chip Tunes and IDM.
He like to experiment and have fun. The music he made has always been for him, and his friends, but mainly for himself to keep his sanity.
Now he uses Fruity Loops 5 and Cool Edit + many VST’s and VSTI’s.
