Mr. Spring
Mr Spring (Tim ********) has been at the heart of the dance music scene in Ireland since the beginning. Along with Mark Kavanagh, Mr. Spring set up the country’s first dance label, Red Records, which had a string of successful hits including a dozen singles that made it in to the Irish Top 30.
Another of Spring’s projects was Sound Crowd which produced four top 30 hits and won a dance award at the prestigious Hotpress Awards.
He later went on to set up his own label DT (which later became Spring Records) also releasing over 30 singles between ‘95 and ’98.
Spring has also had success abroad with Voyager 1.56 which was released on UK based Manifesto, and Blaxxtraxx Vol 3.5 on his own label and Profondo Rosso which was released on the renowned Y2K label.
On the back of his success producing tracks, Spring was in great demand, DJ’ing across Europe including Creamfields and Homelands in Ireland.
Although he has stopped releasing records recently, he can still be found in his home studio surrounded by his collection of synths, and now concentrates on his Saturday night dance show on 2fm.
Eros De Funk
Eros De Funk have a blend of dance floor friendly sounds with a funky element. They are fresh, funky and energetic and it show's in their music.
Eros De Funk are Russell Cooley, Timmy Gibson, Tommy Conway and vocalist Nat Leonard.
Timmy and Tommy have been Dj'ing the Irish circuit for 8 years. They were featured on 2FM's ‘626’, and were also critics on 2FM's ‘Firing Squad’. They have been producing music for 3 years, and have had collaborations with other Irish DJ's including Mr Spring. Top DJ John Power has supported Timmy and Tommy’s previous tracks on national radio.
Nat Leonard has just finished recording 3 tracks with top UK producer Chad Jackson and globe trotting DJ Dave Seaman's new project ‘Group Therapy’. Nat’s previous track got to No. 5 on Pete Tong's Buzz chart, and was championed also by Lush resident Col Hamilton. Nat is a talented singer with looks and personality to go with it. Nat teamed up doing live gigs with Timmy and Tommy and has brought a great stage presence and a flair for singing live to their act and has had outstanding reviews in The Star and Hot Press.
Russell Cooley has been making music for 6 years. He has just teamed up with Timmy and Tommy and already Russell has had interest from some of Dublin’s leading underground labels.
Eros De Funk is part of the ‘Convolution Productions’ team. This team is anchored by expert Irish producer Les Stapleton. Convolutions facilities include high end HD Accel 3 system with Pro Tools pro control, Neve Flying Faders VR 72 with total recall and SSL. Convolution is a team of top line producers who want to make a difference in the Irish music scene. Watch this space!!!
H3LX
H3lx has been making electronic music now for 5 years, with his first track “Hallucinogic” receiving airplay on Irelands national radio station 2FM. This gave him incentive to work as hard as he possibly could furthering his sound and production techniques. In late 2001, he remixed Umek - Gatex for personal use in his DJ sets, but after meeting Italian DJ Joy Kitikonti in February 2002 and giving him a demo of his work, Kitikonti went on to play this remix in many of his sets from Dublin to Columbia.
Spurred on by this, H3lx sent Umek a copy of the remix and his feedback was extremely positive, he was very impressed with the very aggressive techno style he was producing around this time and gave him some great feedback which H3lx put to good use.
In April 2002 H3lx did another remix, this time for Joy Kitikonti, of his track “Joydontstop”. Again, Kitikonti was extremely impressed with it and proceeded to play this remix in his sets constantly between March and November 2002, including plays in Dublin’s Temple Theatre and Gods Kitchen in the UK.
In December 2002 H3lx got his first big break DJing, supporting Judge Jules and Anne Savage in the Temple Theatre in Dublin. Several more gigs followed in the Temple Theatre, the biggest being in March of 2003, when Marco V was unable to play due to adverse weather conditions, and H3lx was asked to stand in for him. H3lx recieved an excellent reception from the crowd and was happy with his performance
In September 2003 H3lx enrolled in a sound engineering and music technology course in a bid to further his production skills and techniques. A better understanding of music theory gained from this course saw a change in my production style, to a more electro/80s sound.
In march 2004 he played my first live set in the Temple Bar Music Center to a packed house and received a rapturous reception following his set.
H3lx as a sound engineer in June 2004, and is currently studying Advanced Music Technology in Dublin. He has since played 3 more live sets in Dublin, with 2 more on the cards before the end of May this year. In February of this year, he was contacted by Joy Kitikonti regarding doing another remix, this time licensed, of Joydontstop for the 2005 Remix package on Media Records, Italy. This remix was released on the 23rd of February and has received great reviews, becoming H3lx’s first release, reaching number 4 in the Tuneinn.com record sales chart.
With another remix scheduled for release soon, this time of a track by fellow breakthrough act Eros De Funk featuring Nat Leonard called “Thats Creation”, the future is looking up for H3lx
