Bench have partnered with global online electronic music magazine Resident Advisor (RA) to bring you a spectacular series of films that look at the real scenes and real stories behind dance music.
This collaboration with RA further cements the brands ongoing relationship with the dance music scene, along with their ongoing dedication to producing real clothing for real people.
RA and Bench will showcase some of the most exceptional, undiscovered musical dynamics of different cities across the globe. Each of the short documentaries will speak with some of the most influential figureheads in each city, uncovering the reasons why the sounds created are affecting the electronic music scene on a global level. All of their discoveries will be shared online in the Real Scenes documentaries over the next three months.
First up RA and Bench journeyed to Bristol (where the brand has two stores) to explore how the city has flourished in recent years, discovering why this is one of the most significant electronic music outposts in the world today.
The first Real Scenes documentary can be found on:

Real Scenes will include three short films from across the globe. In the coming months and following on from Bristol, Real Scenes will document stories from Berlin and Detroit.
Bench was born out of the rave culture of the Madchester scene, but has stayed completely relevant and true by constantly striving to create innovative, fashionable clothes inspired by real people and the real lives they lead.
From the Real Scenes documentaries, partnering leading music festivals & Benchs apparel ranges, musical influences continue to flow through the veins of the brand. Beats and baselines can be found in the smallest details on clothing and through their signature in-house designed graphics.
