BIOGRAPHY

Mike Sheridan is one of the youngest established composers, producers and DJ's in Denmark. Born in Copenhagen in 1991 he has already played gigs all over Denmark and parts of Europe, composed and performed music for a ballet, reinterpreted and performed Revolution 9 (The Beatles White Album) – live - for a Scandinavian-wide TV extravaganza and also finds time to run DR Electronica (internet radio channel) for the Danish National Radio.

Sheridan represents a new breed of artist – he combines a natural flair for programming complex electronic gear with innate musicality and both the desire and talent to make his own way in an industry undergoing constant change.

Mike was was signed by an indie label while still only 14 and at 15 he had already appeared on multiple compilations, showcased his music on national TV, played over 70 gigs at clubs that required him to be accompanied by a parent and even made his first 12" EP, ”Alt&Intet”.

No surprise, then, that his debut album ("I Syv Sind" which means "In Two Minds") came out on Playground Music in 2008, 6 weeks prior to his 17th birthday! The album was universally acclaimed by critics and extremely well received by fans. The track "Med Små Skridt" (Small steps) went to 1 on iTunes Denmark for several months, received a great deal of radio play and Mike has been nominated for 5 awards, winning a Danish grammy for “Best Electronica Album” for 2008.

This year (2009), Mike has played numerous club gigs and most of the summer festivals in Denmark (including Roskilde and Skanderborg) while also finding time to collaborate on new tracks with a number of other local and european young artists. He has also signed with Agent Audio (Amsterdam) to represent and promote him as a DJ internationally. This has led to DJ engagements at several festivals in Holland (Welcome to the Future, MysteryLand and Sensation).

Also in progress is a new album which has a tentative release date 3rd quarter 2010 and a film-score for the swedish motion picture entitled "Fuerteventura".



QUOTES


David Fricke - Rolling Stones Magazine on Mike's show at Spot Festival 2009:

"Mike Sheridan was really interesting. His take on electronics was more interesting to me than a lot of electronica. He was doing things with shapes and sounds and it was almost orchestral blends. Considering his age and considering the genre he was really really interesting and I am keen to hear his record"



Neil McCormick, Daily Telegraph (UK)

Mike Sheridan is a …. ”17-year-old electro prodigy. He introduced a song as his new single (with a guest appearance by great microtone pianist and ethereal voiced singer, Mads Langer), then proceeded to play it for about half an hour. The days of three minute pop songs are clearly over. I thought the music was rich and amazing...... ”



Anders Trentemøller in Boom Boom Magazine 3:

“Mike has regularly asked for my advice, borrowed gear from me and played me his demos. It’s a great pleasure to be able to inspire a new and very young generation of producers. Mike Sheridan is a major talent. He creates a good sound and is very open to influences from other genres. His debut is well executed, and I look forward to his future work, as he will undoubtedly get even better.”
