A mainstay of the British downtempo scene for nearly 15 years, Tripswitch (Nick Brennan) achieved a worldwide reputation as a meticulous and talented producer with the release of his first album ‘Circuit Breaker’ on Youth’s Liquid Sound Design label in 2005. With a 4* review in DJ magazine, praise from Anoushka Shankar in the New York Times, BBC Radio 1 airplay as well as support from the likes of Nick Warren (Way Out West), Jose Padilla (Cafe del Mar) and Claude Challe (Buddha Bar), who all picked up tracks for their own compilations, this groundbreaking album is widely held up as a classic in the psy-chill genre.

Nick launched his own label Section Records in 2010 with the release of the 2nd Tripswitch long player “Geometry”, followed by a string of critically acclaimed singles and EPs which attracted support from the likes of Orbital, Chris Lake, Mumdance, Way Out West and Kasey Taylor and glowing reviews in the music glossies. Over the past 4 years he’s developed the label, bringing forward other artists like Koan, Audioglider and Seamless while becoming an in-demand remixer, supplying his treatment to tracks by The Orb, System 7, Banco De Gaia, Nick Warren, Kaya Project, Joey Fehrenbach, Abakus, High Frequency Bandwidth, Liquid Soul & Symbolic, Seb Dhajje and Noir among others. His touring schedule has become increasingly packed, racking up numerous appearances across the globe, and Nick’s sets are renowned for providing a bridge between the chillout and the dance floor, creating the perfect blend of exquisite melody and atmosphere with hypnotic, hi-definition grooves.

Nick has been locked in the studio since 2014 to focus on the next instalment of the Tripswitch story, and a new album of intelligent, deep / progressive house, due to land mid-2015 on the legendary Iboga Records. The tracks have already been making waves and getting plays from some of the biggest DJs on the house scene.

Nick has contributed pro tips to Computer Music magazine, worked with Pioneer Pro DJ and Native Instruments, and his guest mixes are regularly featured on radio shows/ stations such as Ninja Tunes Solid Steel, The Orb’s Fnoob show, Camden Roundhouse Radio and RTE.
