Ben Ladmin, known to the world as Nostalgia 77 describes his sound as "a combination of soul and jazz composition with computer based production techniques."  His background in producing hip hop beats through sampling the jazz that he loved inspired Ladmin to make his own jazz. Experimenting with funk, soul and hip hop, Nostalgia 77's 2007 album "Everything Under The Sun" won the Jazz Album of The Year award at the BBC Worldwide Awards. Nostalgia 77 has received much acclaim for partnering with singer-songwriter Josa Peit, which introduced folk and blues into Nostalgia's sound.

Ladmin has also produced albums for the likes of Jamie Cullum and singer-songwriter Lizzy Parks.
