SHUT THE FRONT DOOR!!! LOVE IT KENNNNNNNY XXX

Hello everyone and welcome back to the PFG Progcast, our weekly journey around Planet Progressive searching for the finest underground beats for your aural pleasures!  

Today see's us hit warp speed back to another favourite destination of ours... Liverpool! The historic home of some of the worlds best clubs, events and DJ's PFG welcomes one of our own behind the decks, ready to show his skills to the rest of the world! Give it up for Kenny Lawler!


Kenny Lawler was heavily influenced and enticed by electronic sounds, repetitive beats and melodic synth pads, ever since being first introduced to them in the mid 80's. The first record he purchased, on vinyl, was 1987's “Krush - House Arrest" and the rest is history.

 Introduced to the underground club scene in 1992 at the Coconut Grove in Liverpool, he has been an avid follower of deep and progressive house, techno and electronic sounds ever since. Kenny was also a regular at Cream from 1995, then later at the infamous Liverpool underground night, "Alderaan".

This was a night of proper underground Techno and Prog House which heavily influenced and shaped his musical direction. In an intimate room hosting DJ's such as Anthony Pappa, Lee Burridge, Danny Howells and the resident Steve Parry, how could you not get a positive education??

Mostly playing at parties with friends over the years, Kenny later spent time promoting a night in Liverpool called "Aztec" at the Lemon Lounge, The Masque and the home of Cream at Nation. Aztec brought in some great DJ's and acts such as Hernan Catteneo, Infusion and Phil Hartnol of Orbital fame to name a few. 
His biggest influences include, Detroit Fiend, Steve Parry, John Digweed, Sasha, Mr. C, Anthony Pappa, Nick Warren, Hernan Cattaneo, Dave Seaman, Nick Muir, Sam Monie plus many more... 

Fast forward to now, Kenny hosts his own radio show on the 2nd Friday of every month on Saturo Sounds called Closer Distancing and has not long started his music production journey, with hopefully one or two releases forthcoming in the future. "In the distance, through the music, we become closer, enjoy the mix!"
