Bryan Kearney: "Inspirations" The Stories Behind the Music

from Hard House History · host Paul Glazby

Bryan Kearney returns to Hard House History for an Inspirations episode that goes far beyond the records themselves.Joining Paul Glazby for the second time, Bryan opens up about the music, memories and real-life experiences behind three tracks from his career, revealing how inspiration can come from the most unexpected places.First up is his remix of Flash – Frantic Theme, a record forever connected to the Irish club scene and Bryan's early days attending venues such as Dublin's legendary Temple Theatre. From Mark Kavanagh destroying Creamfields with the original to producing his own version on a basic home hi-fi system, Bryan explains how a classic record became part of his own musical journey. There's even an exclusive story involving the track's infamous "drug addicts" vocal and perhaps the most inappropriate gig at which he could possibly have played it.Then things get considerably deeper.Bryan reveals the remarkable story behind All Over Again, his collaboration with Plumb. Created during a period when he was processing the sudden loss of his father, the track became a way of turning grief into something positive. He explains where its musical inspiration came from, how Plumb's vocal transformed the record, and why listeners continue to connect with it so deeply.Finally comes Kaia, arguably the most personal record Bryan has ever made.Bryan takes Paul through years of fertility struggles, IVF, major surgery, miscarriage and ultimately the birth of his daughter Kaia. He explains why the original project was simply called "Why?", how the finished record became the closing chapter of an incredibly difficult period, and why his daughter's actual heartbeat was incorporated into the track.It's funny, brutally open and incredibly moving, while offering a rare look at the human experiences behind electronic music.JOIN THE HISTORYThese aren't simply stories about records; they're stories about the moments that created them.
