Automated Music Presents: Simon Baker

Automated Music are back with a mega blow-out for the bank holiday weekend, this time securing top DJ Simon Baker to join in the fun.
Simon has been growing on the DJ circuit since the early nineties, honing his craft in electronic music and eventually floating well beyond the shores of the UK with recent tours in the States, South America, Asia and of course, all around Europe.
He initially gained recognition in 2004 as part of a duo known as The Liptrick, but after releasing their EP on Ralph Lawson’s 2020 Vision label the group disbanded, and Simon launched his own Infant Records label soon after.

Since then he has worked with many other DJs such as Paul Woolford, Burnski, Tim Green, Anthony Collins and many more. The last few years has seen quite a busy touring schedule for Simon, securing residencies in Asylum (Leeds) and DDD in London, but his vision stretched further than his home land. He has played some of the top European clubs such as Weekend, Watergate and Cocoon in Germany and Nitsa in Barcelona. The U.S. welcomed him to Droog (L.A.), The EndUp in San Fran and Sullivan Room in NYC. He has even had the fortune of stepping on stage at the Piknic Electronik Festival in Montreal.
With more mixes still to come, including a re-work of Simian Mobile Disco’s “Sleep Depravation”, Simon simply cannot stop and is on a collision course with mainstream electro audiences.

Dublin’s Automated Music have the pleasure of hosting Simon Bakers Irish debut, along with support from Rubio and Barry Greaves.

So get your dirty techno shoes on this Bank Holiday Sunday and make your way down to The Underground at Kennedy’s to check out Automated Music’s newest guest; Simon Baker.

Doors 10pm, Entry €15.00.
