BIO BLIPS:

Having grown up listening to Detroit Techno and progressively moving through electronic music, Irish bass music producer DROKKR took up production around 4 years ago. In his music you can hear him taking influences from a 17 year love affair with electronic music. Having played around with DJing before taking up production which steadily moved towards a live show. The live show that he currently brings to the table is one full of driving beats, quirky percussion and solid heavy duty bass.

Momentum is steadily building behind DROKKR and his music. Seeing plenty of radio support from DJs such as Starkey on BBC 1xtra and SubFM and from No Yeah No & Warlock, Threnody Mad EP and Valta on SubFm. There is now also series of mixes and live recordings for various blogs and radio shows are in the currently in the pipeline to coincide with the launch of his own website, blog and the forthcoming releases.

With the wheels fully in motion now,2011 is shaping up nicely With a string of releases lined up for the coming months. As the rest of the year pans out, things are looking to get even busier for Drokkr and his music. The prolific producer seems to be able to move between genres little effort while constantly pushing his boundries and all the while evolving his own unique sound.

“DROKKR is unique in that his music straddles many different genres, but always feels fresh and exciting, and interestingly like the same artist. Exactly what I want to hear in music today.” – Starkey

“I knew from the early beats I was receiving from DROKKR that one day he would be on Badman Press, and atm he is really growing into his own sound and obviously enjoying himself – when I listen to “Big Drink” I have no choice but to smile and nod my head in respect to the man from Ireland doing it big with a style that goes down from California to Bristol and beyond!” – DZ

“Yea, been dropping DROKKR’s stuff for a while now, lots of influences ranging from techno, garage, bassline to rave……..wicked!” – No Yeah No
