Heard it last night, terrible news :(
Haven't met him in person, only knew him via AIM. He was a nice cheerful person, though.
His mixes were one of the few mixes that got me more interested in the 130/140BPM stuff.
Not to mention his amazing ideas and work on the production tip.

My deepest condolences to his family and friends.

Endless respect for your contribution in music.
RIP mate

I'm off to see Tim Exile in Hackney a bit later anyway, so if they're still there, I will. Drinks on him tonight, deffo.

I can't stop thinking about how tragic this is and I never even met Ben. I just really enjoyed a lot of what I heard of his music and have been looking forward to his releases.

RIP Bracket.
