Hailing from Athlone in Ireland, Adrian has been DJing since 14 influenced by the Irish, UK, European and American House and Techno scene. Through good friends he discovered the Disco, Cosmic, Italo and Wave scene and party’s and DJ’s in The Hague and Berlin in the early 2000s and has been exploring the world of US 1970s and 80s disco, boogie, Hi-NRG and weird electronic music from across the world since.

With friends Amy and AJ they run Club Funk in Athlone and will take the night around the country in the next few months focusing on Disco in all its forms to recreate a little bit of paradise for dancers. Deeply inspired by all the great clubs and DJ’s from New York, San Francisco, Chicago, Berlin and Italy.

Consistent high quality releases and edits have garnered support from the likes of Nightmares On Wax, Purple Disco Machine, The Blessed Madonna, Crazy P, TSHA, Folamour, Dan Shake, Groove Armada, Sarah Story (Radio 1) and Basement Jaxx. 

Holding down residencies in London, Berlin, Paris, Mexico City and NYC, The Disco Express also plays host to events further afield in Bristol, Milan, Rome, Copenhagen and more..
