About
Eddy Kennedy, aka Kessler, is a DJ and producer from Northern Ireland. Collecting records & studying production from an early age enabled him to progress a deep passion for music, which unearthed an array of unique self-released records, as well as releases on Born Sleepy, innovative label in his Belfast hometown. An eclectic taste is well and truly reflected through Kessler’s creative and unique style, drawing influences from the likes of Ilian Tape, R&S, Metalheadz and Hessle Audio.
Having nurtured his sound in the UK & Ireland, Kessler relocated to Rotterdam to continue growing his forward thinking and genre defying aesthetic, which you can hear in his releases on Holding Hands, Shall Not Fade and Sherrele’s new imprint BEAUTIFUL, creating a dynamic signature of immersive breaks and bass-driven music. His releases have received support across multiple reputable shows across BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, BBC 1xtra, R1 Essential Mix, Rinse FM & NTS, gaining praise for his selections, outlying his distinct connection with unrestricted electro, garage, jungle & techno along the way.
