About Me

Hello there, I'm Sakkara from Scotland (UK). I am a hardcore producer and have a live act that has been used to test what works on the dancefloor at events....My main influences come from the more underground or harder edged part of the Hardcore Techno scene in the UK. I've worked hard to produce music that, while I know, will not be appealing to all, keeps me pushing boundries for the local music scene. I'm quite well known as a bit of a club head in the Scottish Hardcore scene, I take my own brand of punishing techno on tour and play out in various locations from large club venues to 'free parties' playing techno, gabber, and hardcore to the loyal crowds that circulate the British Isles.What has been gathered here is a collection of music composed, produced and performed in clubs and the like, across the UK, solely by me - Ian McGuire (aka Sakkara). Plans for the future might include taking my live act a bit farther afield & possibly performing at some of the larger European events.

My next venture....

It seems I've become an event organiser recently. Yeah, struck me by surprise too. Must try to lay-off the morrocan for a bit I think. So, yeah my night... managed to secure a 250 capacity venue ...
