NEW ALBUM

2051: Enter the Droid LP [Awesome Soundwave]

 

Hybrasil LIVE

“Hybrasil continues his sonic explorations in sound drawing inspiration from his Irish heritage and his current environment in Berlin & Dublin. Juxtaposing the ancient Irish landscape and history with the built environment of a modern European city, Hybrasil articulates a feeling of the ancient in a truly futuristic and electronic sound. He brings to mind an idea of ancient technological beings being perhaps re-animated, not so much a Frankensteinian concept but rather an idea of perhaps ancient alien technology mixed with our own desire as a race to create some kind of sentient life through technology.” Christopher Coe [Awesome Soundwave]

 
 

ABOUT HYBRASIL

Hybrasil learned his craft as a house engineer at Temple Lane and Grouse Lodge Studios, where he recorded and produced music on NEVE and SSL Consoles across genres such as Blues, Jazz, Folk Music, World Music and Prog Rock. After many years of honing his skills as a sound engineer with a variety of different artists from different backgrounds, work on the Hybrasil live and studio project began.

In 2005 he took up residency as a radio DJ, presenting a late-night 3 deck mix show inspired by The Wizard on WJLB Detroit. It wasn’t long before Hybrasil was picked up by Irish National Radio. A broadcasting career that eventually spanned a total of twelve years.

The Hybrasil live project debuted in 2016. What followed was a series of digital/vinyl releases on his own eponymous label and a number of key performances at festivals and clubs across the continent. His most ambitious project took five years to develop. For this, he wrote a live show entitled ‘Spaces’, performed before Jeff Mills & the National Concert Orchestra at Dublin’s Bord Gais Theatre.

In 2019, he was signed to Rekids , debuting on the label with the ‘Afra EP’ and his debut album ‘Embers’. Since joining Rekids he has picked up a number of mix credits for other artists on the label including Radio Slave, Alinka and Theo Nasa. In 2020 Hybrasil debuted at Panorama Bar and signed to the ASW label for live artists.

In 2023 Hybrasil premiered 'Drones from the Island' an audio visual live concept designed collaboration with Tom Hodgkinson of Bristol based design studio ‘SHOP’ [Stormzy, The Gorillaz], at Culture Night Ireland at Cork City Hall.
