Chris Flannigan (2)

Through an extensive catalogue of original productions and performances across international dancefloors, Chris Flannigan has carved out a formidable presence within the underground scene. Built around sample-driven textures and punchy drums, his style draws equally from house and techno traditions while maintaining a distinct identity of its own. Originally emerging from the Irish underground community, Chris debuted his first 12” EP on Manchester-based Hardline Sounds imprint Drum Workouts. His productions have travelled far beyond the studio, receiving consistent backing from major artists and finding their way into some of the world’s most iconic spaces, including Berlin’s Berghain.

Wider recognition has followed via features on platforms such as BBC Radio 1, BBC Introducing and Rinse FM. Over the last few years, Chris has performed in major cities including New York, Berlin and London, while expanding his reach further across Europe with appearances in Portugal and Croatia. With each new city comes a deeper environmental sensibility and heightened crowd connection that leaves a residue on his sets and studio work. Following standout appearances at AVA Festival in both 2025 and 2026, Chris continues to reinforce his growing reputation as one of the most compelling names emerging from the contemporary club circuit.
