Mophono

Mophono, the moniker of San Francisco-based producer and DJ Benji Fester, crafts music that feels like a neon-lit road trip through retro-futuristic soundscapes. A turntablist at heart, he stitches together dusty funk, chopped soul, and glitchy electronic beats with a psychedelic swagger that’s earned him collabs with acts like The Gaslamp Killer (their joint “Humanoid 2.0” remix slaps). His remixes—like the groove-twisted “Don’t Believe The Dancers” or the haunting “Hermosa”—show off his knack for warping tracks into trippy dancefloor fuel. When he’s not dropping brain-bending EPs (*California Colors* is a wild ride) or originals like the bass-thick “Goons,” he runs his label Roam Recordings and keeps crowds moving with vinyl-crammed live sets that blur decades of funk and future beats. Think of him as your crate-digging uncle who secretly moonlights as a mad scientist.
