Deviation

Deviation makes a triumphant return after a brief hiatus following their exceptional 13-week residency with us earlier in the year. Having welcomed the likes of Four Tet, Hudson Mohawke, Moodymann and Skepta to perform alongside him, Benji B truly demonstrated his versatility and eclectic tastes that have come to define his monthly Fridays with us at XOYO.

For the first Deviation session since the residency, Benji has invited none other than legendary hip-hop producer Madlib to the proceedings. Having started his production life as part of rap group The Alkaholics and then Lootpack, he was promptly snapped up by Peanut Butter Wolf for iconic hip-hop label Stones Throw. Since then, he went on to release numerous classic records such as Champion Sound with J Dilla and the timeless Madvillainy with MF DOOM. With him comes Detroit-born producer Waajeed for an all American affair, it should make for an extremely special occasion all round.
