Monoak is Johnny Oakley, a music producer from Ireland based in London. An artist engrossed in his work and somewhat of a perfectionist, he is able to tell tales through his output and take the listener on a journey into something truly special. Monoak is currently working on material that spans everything from his distinctive brand of deep and gritty techno, brooding skittered ambient electro, right through to crunchy garage tinged dubs.
“It's all recorded straight out of two MPC's as I would play live. There is no compression, external FX or mastering. I really wanted to do a mix that gives your listeners an idea of my live set but inevitably when mixing in the studio you lose some of the spontaneity you would have in front of a crowd. So with that in mind, I think it is pretty close”
