Iain M is one of the most exciting tech trance talents Scotland has to offer! Glasgow has a rich trance history and Iain has been a face in and around the Scottish club scene as a clubber, promoter, DJ and producer for going on 2 decades. The fuse was lit for Iain around the turn of the millennium at Inside Out @ The Arches, This is where he cut his teeth as a clubber and fell in love with the sounds of tech trance, with early influence coming from the Dutch and Belgians sounds of Marco V, Marcel Woods and Fred Baker. Tech trance, uplifting trance with a dash of techno is where Iain excels. Iain caught the producing bug in 2009 when he was a music production student over a 5 year period with James Allan of Public Domain fame. Success didn't come overnight as he grafted on Cubase and developed his sound into the enormous stripped back, dark tech trance that we have come to expect from an Iain M track. It's not all dark when it comes to the atmosphere in the talented Scots productions, melody and emotional bliss is in there too. These stand out sound fusions plus a high level of production soon caught the attention of some of Trance's biggest labels signing tracks to Afterdark, Outburst, Aria, HTE, No remorse to name a few. As well as being an Afterdark regular, other notable achievements to date for Iain include a collab with David Forbes, compilation features on Afterdark Buenos Aires & LA plus the Grotesque 350 and Damaged 100 & Outburst Prism compilations. Iain’s music has featured regular ASOT plays by Armin Van Buuren, FSOE plays by Aly & Fila and huge track support from Trance musics elite. Iain's music since 2018 has been a regular in the global trance arena. The higher end of the Beatport charts is a regular hang out for Iain's music, the top 10 having been smashed 5 times so far with the highest positions held being number 2 with the vocal stunner Eternally, alongside Deirdre Mclaughlin & Serotonin both released on Sniejder's Afterdark imprint.
