What is Sodwee.com?
Sodwee.com has been around since early 2006. Providing the best nuggets of music week in, week out. We started showcasing a track or video per week due to bandwidth limits back in those days. Thankfully, technology and access to decent broadband connections around the world have changed the face of the music industry in the long run. And subsequently, has enabled me to post more than a track/video a week.
Current. Crafted. Curated.

We like to keep Sodwee.com as simple as possible in its core values and render a relatable music destination for music listeners around the world. We write in English to expose French bands and artists to a wider foreign audience. Also shedding light on newcomers from the rest of the world to our ever-growing readership both in the Francophone world and internationally. We believe in simple feelings when talking about music, that is why you’ll often read our posts and learn about new music being released in our unique voice. Words that equate to the feelings we experience as authors listening to a piece of music. Moments in the day that are best suited for such track rather than ramble endlessly on a particular chord progression or deep theories about the use of a particular instrumentation…
You get the gist. We’re basic in our approach as to only leave you wanting to discover new music through our picky curation in the hopes you’ll, in turn, become fans and maybe share that new artist you heard about on Sodwee.com.
Hi, I’m Ben.
Hi, I’m Ben. Founder, editor, and occasional night owl behind sodwee.com. Born in 1985 and raised in the 19th arrondissement of Paris, I grew up with a French heart and an English tongue, thanks to a bi-national upbringing that turned me into a walking cultural remix before Spotify tried to make it cool.
I’ve spent years curating, collecting, and occasionally obsessing over sounds that range from dusty classics to this year’s bass-heavy breakthroughs. My library’s a wild ride: think Bowie meeting Burial somewhere over a lo-fi beat.
Before turning full-time into the music world, I did my rounds in the real one — cutting my teeth in Paris’ hospitality scene, climbing from busboy to manager before heading south to Toulouse. Then came a plot twist. One that took me way above ground: Dubai. I swapped trays for turbulence and joined a famous middle-eastern airline as Cabin Crew, hopping continents and playlists in equal measure.
Three years and countless flight miles later, I landed back in Paris, took a sharp left turn into PR with London’s Get In!agency, and found myself working on online profiles for some rather familiar names — Avicii, Martin Solveig, John Digweed, Moguai, Cazzette, and more.
These days, I’m back where it all began. In sunny Paris, still chasing the next big sound, crafting stories around it, and sharing them with a growing crowd of curious ears from all corners of the world.
Send us music, maybe?
We, tend to publish music I like to defend. Music I enjoy bopping to. A quick browse through the blog will give you a sense of the editorial line. I, we’re open to any genre and any kind of music. So don’t let previously posted stuff put you off from sending new exciting music…
