Aidan Doherty recorded live @ WUITW July 2025

Aidan Doherty - London based DJ and founder of Warm Up and Warm Up Festival.

Founder and resident DJ of London’s beloved subterranean community, Warm Up, Aidan Doherty has established himself as a vanguard of a special pocket of sound and space in London’s underground scene, since the movements conception in 2013.

It is his uncompromising, passionate belief in music’s capacity to affect emotional change, together with total emersion in Warm Up’s own particular narrative, eclectic groove that has earned him an avid, loyal following and recognition as one of London’s most respected, sought after names.

From a potent list of warm up sets for the likes of Max Cooper, Stephan Bodzin, Christian Löffler, Joris Voorn and Kollectiv Turmstrasse, to his signature extended closing sets at ‘Warm Up In The Woods’ outdoor summer events, expect above all, transition. A journey.

It is there that you will begin to get quietly subsumed by a dynamic range of deep, melodic techno and electronica coupled with the unique painterly style that flows and bristles through his sets.


For him, community means everything, community is after all, about identifying the people around you with whom you can create a common, passionate cause. It’s about ignoring the conventional wisdom of bland, sometime politics and playing the game by a different set of rules. You have DJ’s who play music, and you have DJ’s who tell stories, be a storey teller.

What is Warm Up ? 

Warm Up is a London based night that aims to deliver a more emotional experience towards music. We try to create an atmosphere that allows people to really let go, close their eyes and get lost in the sound. 

We look for a musical experience that evokes emotional feelings. Emotive music has the ability to really touch people on a higher level. 

Our main sound would fall under the genre of techno and electronica. We are big lovers of melodic styles that have that dark raw but uplifting vibe.

Artist we admire - Max Cooper, Dominik Eulberg, Ryan Davis, Extrawelt, James Holden, Applescal, Eva Gallo, Gui Boratto, Microtrauma, Oliver Hunterman, Luke Abbot, Hubert kirchner, and the list goes on.

Our mentality is simple, it’s about the music and the appreciation of forward thinking artists, whilst sharing this with like-minded music lovers.
