DT3 (Ben Nash) is a Beatport charting drum and bass producer / DJ from Adelaide, Australia. Influenced by early 90’s jungle, rave, rock and metal, DT3’s love of music began at an early age. His first foray into live music started in high school as the lead vocalist and bass guitarist in his punk band “Acid”. Heading into the 2000’s Ben and his best mates formed Indie Rock band “Dexter Jones”, signing to JL Publishing and receiving MTV, VH1 and Rage video plays with their “Unique New York” EP. Dexter Jones enjoyed national and international popularity with support highlights including INXS and Hunters & Collectors in 2011. During this period Ben (DT3) was heavily influenced by DJ Aphrodite and E-Z Rollers, igniting his love of Drum and Bass. A three-year stint as co-host on DnB radio show “The Ones and Twos” on Adelaide’s premier community radio station, Fresh 92.7, saw him interview “Icicle” and “Utah Jazz”. DJ highlight supports include “Tantrum Desire”, “DJ Randall” and “Annix”

At a time when the Aussie Hip hop scene is rapidly growing and most states around the country each have their own iconic MC's, the question on everyone’s mind is who's going to be next to take this genre by storm?... Intellectual rhymes, mixed pace flows, attitude, electrifying live shows and a style that’s still raw Aussie but DIFFERENT look no further then Darwin NT's own DT3! DT3 formed in September 2009 after taking part in a youth workshop which used hip hop as a focus to get kids off the street and in the studio. During this they made a track called "Friday" which quickly went viral amongst their peers and the positive responses saw MC's Nate, Devine and Big-Z form the group. Taking recording and editing techniques away from the workshop the childhood friends went on to release three mix tapes ('Break n Enter' 2010, 'Sky High'2011 and 'Untitled'2012). With performances on high demand DT3 added friend/DJ 'DJ Rfaktr' to the group to take their live shows to the next level.
