Jamie Behan

Widely acknowledged as the godfather of the techno scene in his home city of Cork, Jamie Behan has been a stalwart of the Irish techno scene for a well over a decade. From the early days of his residency at legendary Cork club Sir Henrys Behan has made his name through his rapidfire style of mixing and consistently quality DJ Sets, headlining clubnights across Ireland, Europe and beyond in the UK, Holland, Germany, Belgium, Spain, Bahrain, and Croatia, promoting Ireland's longest-running techno night 'Bastardo Electrico', and managing the respected record label of the same name. Behan's DJ sets refuse to be pigeon-holed into a particular sound, incorporating diverse strains of techno from Detroit to Birmingham to Berlin influences, twisted together into a dark, mutant groove. He has showcased this eclectic fusion of sound through his own productions, which have appeared on labels such as Nice and Nasty, Static, and Bastardo Electrico, receiving support and plaudits from techno and house afficionados alike. Now in 2015, Behan is focusing his efforts more into studio work, developing his sound and bringing his productions in new directions.
