KORMAC
Kormac is a composer, producer and performer from Dublin, Ireland, who started out as a hip-hop scratch DJ and MPC beat-maker. He has matured into an artist who brings an innovative approach to his art, twisting samples and meticulous recordings of acoustic instruments into something entirely unique.

His latest album, Equivalent Exchange, saw him write a full suite of material for an orchestra and a host of collaborators, including Loah, Jafaris, Jack O’ Rourke, MayKay, Shahab & Shayan Coohe, and Stephen James Smith, while working with acclaimed artist, Maser, on artwork and show visuals.

2024 saw Kormac write an original score for Steven Knight's latest series, This Town. Kormac and his team shaped the series’ musical identity by integrating performances from Dan Carey, Kae Tempest, Gregory Porter, Celeste and Self-Esteem into his score. By weaving in these elements, and deploying them throughout the series, Kormac achieved a unique and cohesive soundscape. The six-part series aired on BBC1 in Spring 2024 and was produced by Kudos TV, with the OST album released on Mercury. Also in 2024, Kormac scored Subotica’s drama series The Boy That Never Was, starring Colin Morgan and Toni O’Rourke.

Before this he scored The Diplomat - a 6 part series for ITV Studios produced by World Productions (Line of Duty). The show stars Sophie Rundle (Peaky Blinders) and first aired on Alibi/Now TV in 2023.

Kormac also scored the Emmy-nominated documentary, Swift Justice, for The New Yorker magazine. The film explores the Afghani justice system under Taliban control. It was directed by the late Ross McDonnell. His first feature soundtrack was for the film, Tarrac. He has previously written stirring, uneasy scores for two multi-episodic TV series, Professionals (starring Brendan Fraser) and Red Election (starring Lydia Leonard and Stephen Dillane), airing worldwide on Disney Plus and primetime in the U.S. respectively.

He’s played festivals including Glastonbury, Bestival, Electric Picnic, Sonar and toured the UK, Europe, Eastern Europe, Australia and Canada alongside luminaries Portishead, Nas, Flaming Lips, Sonic Youth, Snarky Puppy and a host of others.
