Shampain

Born in Galway, Shampain is a DJ and producer whose eclectic sets fuse ambient, bass-driven, club and cinematic elements. With more than a decade behind the decks, he has earned a reputation as one of the rare touring DJs whose path is built not on releases, but on a colorful music library, flawless mixing, and a distinctive persona. Now a key figure in Ireland’s underground scene, Shampain continues to push boundaries with his unique sonic style.

Shampain co-founded both VSN and G TOWN Records. He also directs the DIY operations at FREAK Magazine; an exciting art and music platform celebrating the weird and wonderful of the audio and visual worlds. 

Beyond these projects, he has sustained a long-running residency on Rinse France and his multifaceted approach has brought recognition from major Irish cultural institutions such as An Taibhdhearc (the National Irish Language Theatre), the Bram Stoker Festival, and the Galway Arts Festival, as well as from world-renowned dance music institutions like Fabric, Amnesia, Rex Club, Hör, Sub Club, Macadam and RSO.
