Kirk Degiorgio

As One, London, UK

The cornerstone and pioneer of UK techno, Kirk DeGiorgio has been tirelessly delivering the original message of Detroit techno, born out of a city renowned for its soul music and its factories. Kirk takes us on his journey of discovery, listening to his aunt's soul records, reading Echoes, working in record shops and taking a trip to Chicago and finally arriving at the Metroplex hub in Detroit - learning how Derrick May, Shake Shakir and Juan Atkins made seminal Detroit soul music with synths and drummachines. From pause-button mixtapes to the impact technology has had on music and club culture, Kirk bridges the gap from West End Boogie to Ableton Live.
