Techno King, Phil Kieran, is back once again with an array of quality records to be put out on a variety of labels, including his exciting new project Phil Kieran Recordings.
This year has already been very special for the Belfast-born DJ/producer with the release of his mammoth album, SHH, on Cocoon to critical acclaim, and a successful world tour which debuted his forward thinking live AV-sets in some of the biggest clubs around.
But Kieran didn’t want to rest on his laurels and so decided to lock himself back in the studio for weeks and put together a large amount of fresh tracks for some labels he has admired for a number of years - including Snork Enterprises, Electric Deluxe, International DJ Gigolo and of course Cocoon that have just signed a new EP.
His high productivity led him to look forward to the project he has been wanting to put to bed for a number of years - Skyhook. Skyhook gained support form the Techno Elite with Sven Vath & Richie Hawtin using it as a weapon of choice for a number of years other supporters include Deadmau5 who has been using skyhook in his sets for years.
Originally no remixes of the chart smasher were made despite huge interest and requests from various people to rework the track, with the lack of a label to distribute them being cited as the main reason.
But finally, this demon has been put to bed and the gauntlet has been picked up by Jesper Dalhback & Adam Beyer, Ricardo Tobar, Scuba & SCB, Gree
