Mix 15 of the series comes from Subversive founder and resident Dyl Moore.
Dyl Moore has been building a reputable name for himself across Ireland for the last few years. Previously a resident of a collective in Dublin playing in venues like Hangar & Opium Rooms, he then went on to setup his own collective (Subversive) based in the rural southeast, Gorey being in hometown and central hub.
He has curated some of the biggest nights Wexford have seen in decades, along with becoming a resident in two of the country’s biggest venues, Project Waterford & Foundry Carlow, he has supported acts like T78, Mark Blair & Shampain.
Dyl’s depth of library and mixing ability have seen him warm up for Kerri Chandler & Hot Since 82 at Konnect Festival & gain a slot at Mass Festival. Lately while gigs have been quiet Dyl has featured on the FourFour Mix Series.
Along with all of this he has set up a free download label with a focus on supporting under the radar artists doing mastering, promo and graphics for them. The label, RiotTrax had it’s first release with HYYKEN and the second release is a remix EP including artists like Whoriskey, Gavin Rochford & Cedarwood State Trax.
Expect a progressive journey showcasing Dyl’s melodic roots that takes twists and turns through genres with some poetic samples layered over tracks.

Darragh Collopy's 'Mimas' alias is less than a year old but has been a good escape for Collopy to go back to the more preferred underground sound which he started off playing back in 2014. Darragh has a big passion for DJing but ultimately feels most comfortable playing as Mimas where he holds down a residency in Factory Nightclub. With a wide variety of tracks in his ever expanding library Mimas can dip in and out of different genres depending on the setting.
For this mix Mimas went back to the more underground and melodic side of house and techno music, playing a very different tracklist to what he would normally play during his residency.
