  • Summary

  • Unless you live under a rock (or off Instagram), you've heard of Australian-born, Montauk-based DJ / model / dadfluencer Oli Benz. From his legendary sets at The Surf Lodge to his face gracing the pages of your favorite glossy, Oli has been a tastemaker and trendsetter since he first landed on our shores from his native Oz.

    But now, for the first time ever, Oli has released a solo track that we, frankly, just cannot get enough of. Entitled "Rhythm Romance" and named after his / his wife (Sasha Benz)'s firstborn, the song, and its accompanying disco edit, have been tearing up the charts on Spotify and elsewhere.

    Oli took time out of his busy summer schedule to sit down and chat with us about his early days as a teen in Noosa Heads and Bondi Beach, the amazing story of how he met his wife, their move to NYC, and so much more. If you're feeling nostalgic for the mid 2000s NYC club scene, or want to hear about the best ways to enjoy Montauk, this episode with Oli Benz is one you just can't afford to miss.
