Irish electronic musician who has been producing and releasing Detroit-tinged electronic music for more than two decades.
He has recently released music on labels such as ‘For those that Knoe’ ‘Subwax’ ‘Firescope’ and his own label 'Trident Recordings'.
Subsequent releases on ‘Digital Soul’ and ‘Geek Records’ further cemented Carr’s place amongst a new generation of techno producers that looked to combine soul and melody with electronic dancefloor grooves.
In 2001 Derek launched his own label ‘Trident Recordings’ and released the ‘Copper Beech e.p, a collection of deep soulful techno. Only 500 copies were pressed and it has since become something of a collector’s item.
Derek Carr is a name known by few and far between but he has built a worthy reputation for putting together stunning deep techno.
