Hailing from Ireland but residing now in Liverpool, Mike Miller has gained himself a reputation as a DJ & producer to watch out for. Mikes passion for dance music was conceived in the early 90s, in an era when a new and addictive sound was just starting to emerge across the world. Initially falling for the tail end of acid house, he then discovered the new & futuristic sounds of early jungle & hardcore, and over the following years he naturally progressed into all forms of house music.
Sharing his first set of decks with a friend, he began to hone his craft, playing at parties and events around his home town of Dublin and then progressed on to club nights as his skills began to get noticed. With now over 15 years of experience behind the turntables, his tight control on the decks coupled with his passion for all forms of dance music and his ear for a dance floor worthy groove has lead him on to great things.
Mikes DJing has brought him the length and breadth of the UK and regularly further afield through Europe & beyond, including sets in Turkey, China, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Slovakia, USA and Poland. Over the years he has played alongside such luminaries as Jody Wisternoff, James Zabiela, Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Desyn Masiello, Luke Fair, Anthony Pappa, Matthew Dekay, Steve Gerrard, John Graham, Jonathan Lisle, Kazell, Guy Gerber, Jondi & Spesh and Sandra Collins. March this year sees his debut at John Digweed’s Bedrock night in London
In 2002 Mike left Ireland to further his career in music and moved to Liverpool to work for 3Beat Label Management. As label manager for over 30 of the world’s finest underground house labels, here for four years Mike was in charge of promotion & marketing, A&R, licensing, manufacturing & distribution and he developed both the 3BLM brand and that of globally respected and influential imprints such as Border Community [James Holden], Vapour Recordings [Kasey Taylor], Trojan [Luke Chable], Music for Vinyl [Infusion], DK Records [Matthew Dekay], Mashtronic Records and many more.
2003 & 2004 saw the conception of two of his own imprints 3Beatbreaks and Maris Music. Both labels acted as a perfect outlet for some of his own tracks and remixes and they helped to develop one of his own production monikers DISLODGED [with housemate Adam Helliwell]. Since their launch, Maris & 3Beatbreaks have released tracks from artists such as Chakra, Kasey Taylor, Parham & Dominic Plaza, Rouzbeh Delavari, Skooma, Derek Howell, Seyton, Underground Movement, Momu, Wrecked Angle, Özgür Can, Chris Lake and young Adam "Starkid" Spears [RIP].
In the studio, Mike has been busy over the last few years clocking up a number of acclaimed remixes and releases, including "Posh Swag" on seminal UK imprint Urban Torque, "What You Feel" on Nascent and of course his own remixes on 3Beat Breaks as Dislodged and on Boss Records alongside Liverpool house don, Mike di Scala.
