Greg Dowling and Shane Johnson have been playing records in public since the late 1980s. Their residency at Ireland’s longest running and best known house club, Sweat at Sir Henry’s in Cork, spanned more than a decade and influenced a generation of Irish clubbers and deejays.
Over the 1990s Sweat built up a huge international reputation, being variously described as “a gorgeous blend of underground house” (i-D), a “deep house frenzy” (The Face) and “the best music on that side of the Irish Sea” (DJ Magazine). The night was one of Muzik magazine’s ten best of 1998/99 and was named best regional club on three occasions at the Smirnoff Dance Club Awards.
