Born and raised in Paris, Benjamin D’Amico, the eldest son of Jean Pierre D’Amico (a musician, producer, and co-founder of NRJ Radio), took his first steps in recording studios from the moment he could walk. Immersed in an eclectic musical environment with a diverse array of influences, he began exploring the vast collection of vinyl records at home from a young age. He started composing and remixing at around 17, using a basic laptop, a Roland TB-303 (which he had played with as a child), a MIDI keyboard, and any sound-producing or modifying gear he or his friends could get their hands on. A couple of years later, he ventured into live performing and DJing at raves, leading to his first radio appearance on UQAM’s (University of Quebec) Infrabass Radio show for the release of “Betatest,” his self-produced demo LP in 2004.

After honing his technical skills at Studio Ecole de France in Paris, he collaborated with the talented French guitarist Etienne Jeanne (Swing Dynasty – Wayne’s Basement), a long-time friend. Despite coming from drastically different musical backgrounds, they shared a mutual passion for music and production. It soon became clear that they were embarking on an exciting new project, “Lost Data.” After a year of working in the studio with French artists, jazz bands, and communication agencies (including Proximity BBDO, Barrera Prod…) and creating original music for TV commercials, arranging, recording, and mixing various musical projects, they devoted themselves to the Lost Data project. Their hard work paid off when they went on to perform live in France and Asia during the summer of 2009.

His fascination with new media and a passion for cutting-edge technologies paved the way for an expanded career beyond music. This interest enabled him to acquire skills in digital marketing and advertising, starting as a web developer…

…His journey didn’t stop there; a few years later, he evolved into an Artistic Director and Electronic Media Consultant.

Working freelance initially, he offered his expertise to a diverse clientele, focusing on online marketing strategies, branding, and web communications. His distinctive approach caught the attention of SPNY Interactive, leading to a collaborative partnership. Recognizing his creative flair and strategic acumen, they soon appointed him as Creative Director. In this dynamic role, he orchestrated innovative campaigns for prestigious clients such as ABC Luxe, First Luxe, Imperial Cosmetics, Men at Work, and Jean Rousseau, enhancing their digital presence and brand identity through meticulously crafted online marketing strategies.
