Tommy Holohan is an Irish DJ, producer, and label head known for his ferocious energy and raw approach to contemporary techno. Raised in Dublin, Holohan’s career began in the city’s notorious underground rave scene, where his marathon sets, blending hard techno, rapid-fire breakbeats, and elements of rave and hardcore, quickly earned him a dedicated following. Drawing inspiration from old-school Irish hard dance anthems, warehouse legends, and UK bass music, his productions capture both nostalgia and innovation, reflected in releases on labels such as Rave Selekts (which he founded), Steel City Dance Discs, and Dax J’s Monnom Black.
Holohan’s breakthrough came with a string of high-impact EPs and a signature, no-holds-barred approach to club music. He is celebrated for tracks such as “Suburban Child” and “Techno Is The Devil’s Music,” which helped fuel a new generation of Irish and European rave culture. His dynamic DJ sets have seen him perform at major clubs and festivals across Europe, from Berlin’s Berghain to London’s Printworks, and cemented his reputation as one of the most exhilarating live acts in contemporary electronic music.
Holohan remains a central figure in Ireland’s dance music renaissance, championing the next wave of artists and pushing the boundaries of modern rave.
