A ROWLEY Regis musician has opened a new state-of-the-art recording studio in Dudley.

Benjamin Roberts-Parsons has opened 92 Recording Studio after previously operating from a wooden workshop in the garden of his family home for the last seven years.

However, following a marriage breakdown he decided to relocate to a professional facility on the Anchor Business Park, New Road.

The 31-year-old dad-of-two, who is also a professional DJ and owns Deejay Benja Entertainment Services, is a multi-instrumentalist who plays guitar, drums and keys and specialises in providing vocal recording, mixing and mastering, multi-genre track production and songwriting services.

The former Rowley Hall Primary and St Michaels CE High School pupil began DJing after receiving his first pair of Numark belt drive turntables just before turning 10 and by age 11 he was DJing at private functions for family and friends.

He started producing/engineering for musicians of all genres locally in around 2004 in after converting half of his bedroom at his parents’ house into a makeshift home studio.

Creative Benjamin, who played semi-professional football at 15 for Gornal Athletic FC, went on to turn his skills and passion for music into a business and now works across the UK.
