Long before Dance Music became the global phenomena it is today, it was a way of life for Kirk Degiorgio. From his beginnings as an Electro DJ at local events in Suffolk, his pause-button cassette mixes and local club night “Sweat”, Kirk has been at the centre of the dance music explosion for over 25 years.
Kirk turned his hand to production in 1991 and also founded his legendary ART label. ART – Applied Rhythmic Technology – had an envious roster including artists such as The Black Dog, Aphex Twin, B12 and Carl Craig.
The nineties saw Kirk release critically acclaimed EP’s and albums for labels such as Planet E, R&S, New Electronica, Mo Wax and Clear. Remix work and DJ bookings saw Kirk working overtime – leading to a long
hiatus for his ART label.
Although primarily known as a pure and tough Techno DJ, as a connoisseur of many genres of Dance Music, Kirk has a versatility few other contemporaries can match. He is equally at home whether playing Detroit infused techno, rare disco, boogie or funk.
Since 2005, Kirk has been an integral part of the Red Bull Music Academy’s online Radio Station. His monthly Sound Obsession shows are now into their third year and have a loyal and devoted following. Kirk
has also lectured and regular participated in various RBMA events over the past five years.
2010 marks the return of Kirk to the DJ circuit as he embarks on a worldwide tour to promote his established pure Techno vision. Show less
