Mixes

I recently entered the BBC Introducing Radio 1 Dance competition to be in for a shot with a set at the BBC Radio 1 Weekender. In order to win you had to put together a 20-minute mini-mix opening with at least one of your own productions. I decided to use all of my own tracks for the mix, including one unreleased remix. I never won the competition but I've uploaded my mix onto Soundcloud in case you would like to hear it (link in bio)

Shout out to BBC Introducing for inviting me to enter the comp and all the opportunities they provide for emerging artists!

Xile Clothing Presents: An Hour With Kieran Apter (Tweak_)

Live from the Chapter 24 Records takeover at Sisyphos Strand (Beach) Stage.

Closing the beach stage at Sisyphos back in August was possibly my favourite gig to date! I was a little nervous before going on as Katrinka had the crowd eating out of the palm of her hand before I started, but after a couple of tracks (and a couple of beers 😉) I relaxed into it, and it always helps having friends come along for a dance with you!

The place was packed by the time I got there and the sun came down as I played, you may be able to tell at which point by the track selection! Enjoy..

Live at Sisyphos Berlin 17.8.19

Live from Boiler Room: Edinburgh - this is Kieran Apter.

Thanks to his impressive knowledge of house music and carefully curated DJ sets, Kieran Apter has risen through Edinburgh’s underground to become one of Scotland’s most exciting talents. Since founding esteemed club night, Tweak_, in 2015, where he warmed up for Mano Le Tough, Seth Troxler, Moodymann, San Proper, Fort Romeau, Dorisburg and more, he has since elevated his profile to play across landmark European venues such as Wire Club Leeds, Sisyphos Berlin and Night Tales in London. 

Raised in a musical household, with his father playing in various bands, Kieran’s early musical explorations ranged from rock to samba, and he developed a love for hip hop in his early teenage years. From a young age, Kieran would make the journey from his rural hometown of West Calder to Edinburgh, indulging himself in all the city had to offer, heading to raves and falling in love with dance music while still in school. After moving to the city when he was 18, he soon became a regular face on Edinburgh’s underground scene. 

It's this exposure to music that has given Kieran’s productions the sound that DJ Mag recently described as “warm, cosmic and deeply emotional”. He’s come a long way from his early ‘All I Want’ EP, that found its way into the sets of Dixon, Rampa, &ME and Andhim, and aired by both Pete Tong and B.Traits on their BBC Radio 1 shows. These days, Kieran’s output continues to grow, with high-profile gigs and an acclaimed Boiler Room for FLY Club at Cabaret Voltaire, as well as starting an independent record label showcasing his work and the work of various friends and artists who share the same love for quality underground dance music. His label, CB90 Dance Recordings, is a passion-driven project, inspired by youth culture and a deep-rooted heritage of dance music in Scotland. So far, releases include the likes of Man Power, Brain Dancing, Anthony Georges Patrice, as well as his own productions, which touch on house, techno and acid. 

Kieran’s ability to seamlessly flit between genres while offering profound and thoughtful components in each track make his records as suited to the dancefloor as solo listening. Consistently receiving DJ support from artists such as &ME, Butch, Theo Kottis, Konstantin Sibbold, Jennifer Cardini and Sean Johnston have meant his records soundtrack dancefloors at clubs like Panorama Bar, DC-10, and Subclub. 

In the last 18 months, Kieran’s music has gone on to receive multiple plays on BBC Radio 1 and BBC Scotland, becoming a regular feature and gaining support from the BBC Introducing programme. He holds residencies at both Crèche in London, run by Alexis Raphael, and Pleasure at Cabaret Voltaire alongside Theo Kottis, Alien Communications, IDA and more. He also opened the Boiler Room Stage at last year’s FLY OPEN AIR festival. 

With a busy release schedule taking us up to 2024, Kieran has set himself up well for an exciting future.
