VIP Guests

Ben is a former student of Point Blank and currently works as an A&R manager at Island Records. He signed Tinchy Stryder to the label and also works with artists including Amy Winehouse, Sugababes, Florence & The Machine and many others. Ben is one of many valuable music industry links that Point Blank can offer to students.

Jony has written and produced for Sugababes, Amy Winehouse, Alicia Keys, Lily Allen and many others. So we were thrilled when he dropped into Point Blank's London studios. "I've heard some wicked tunes coming from the students and I'm really impressed with what's going on at Point Blank" he said.

Despite a reputation as "the hardest working man in breaks" Krafty still found time to meet students at Point Blank and offer some trademark tips and tricks to students on the DJ course. Krafty plays shows all over the world from stadium gigs in Australia to festivals and regular slots at Fabric in London.

Tayo is a regular behind the decks at Fabric and has released a string of acclaimed singles and mix CD's. His unique blend of dubstep, reggae and breaks flavours has made him in demand as a DJ and producer and he's a familiar face at PB’s London studios.
