BioDiscography
Video
Benji Heinke is an artist/composer/songwriter/producer based in Southampton, UK.
Born in Somerset in 1995, Heinke graduated with a BA (Hons) in Fine Art from Winchester School of Art (2014–17), specialising in painting and printmaking. After completing his studies, he shifted focus to a professional music career and has since released six albums and two stand-alone singles.
Informed by his Fine Art background, Heinke’s practice maintains a strong visual sensibility rooted in the semiotics of pop art and the intensity of early modernism. He creates the artwork for all of his releases and directs music videos for selected pieces. Musically, his influences range from New Order, Talking Heads and Peter Gabriel to Igor Stravinsky, Mulatu Astatke and Steve Reich. His work spans jangle pop, post-punk, electronic and classical.
