Gadget & The Cloud is the alias of Cork-born, Dublin-based DJ and producer Kelly Doherty. Known for their distinctive fusion of ambient, experimental electronic, and downtempo club sounds, Gadget & The Cloud’s music explores themes of anxiety, modern life, and climate grief. Emerging from Ireland’s thriving DIY scene, they began releasing music in 2017 with the debut LP “Songs For Sad People To Dance To,” quickly earning a reputation for deeply atmospheric, emotionally resonant productions.

As a DJ, Gadget & The Cloud is celebrated for genre-fluid, thoughtfully curated selections that traverse club, ambient, and experimental terrains. Regular performances at venues across Ireland and appearances at prominent festivals like All Together Now and Another Love Story have solidified their standing in the Irish electronic music community. In addition to solo work, Gadget & The Cloud is closely involved with community radio, notably through Dublin Digital Radio (ddr.

With subsequent releases including “October 31st” and “We Sat On A Hill,” Gadget & The Cloud continues to meld vulnerable lyricism and immersive sonics, earning praise from outlets such as The Quietus and Nialler9. Their work draws on influences from club culture, post-rock, drone, and the personal intimacy of bedroom production, continually pushing the boundaries of electronic music in Ireland and beyond.
