Born in Brighton, UK, the original “King of Chillout,” Mixmaster Morris makes music under the name “The Irresistible Force.”
He started DJing in the 80s on pirate radio, and by 1988 was putting on acid house parties in London. Two successful ambient albums for Rising High raised his profile, and he began playing internationally. With his columns in Mixmag and NME he introduced the world to artists like Orbital, Aphex Twin, Global Communications, Black Dog and Squarepusher (all of whom he gave their first press coverage).
In 1994 he started working with The Big Chill and has become a regular fixture at what is the world’s largest chillout event. He now runs two monthly clubs for them - NUBIENT and LOFT IN SPACE. By 1998 he signed to Ninja Tune records, and released another album. In 1999 he played at Cafe Del Mar and won the Chillout DJ of the Year award at Pacha - then he did it again in 2001. 2004 saw the mix compilation GOD BLESS THE CHILLED, and in 2007 NUBIENT NUGGETS vol 1 is set to drop.

This guy doesn't seem to get nearly as much attention and acclaim as the Orb and the KLF. If those two acts are Slint and Rodan, the Irresistible Force is Crain.

He sampled Spacemen 3's "Ecstasy" very prominently two times on his album "Flying High", both on eponymous track, and on "Symphony in E".

This is some really, really amazing stuff -- I spent many an hour listening to Flying High and Dreamfish as a teenager. What's even sadder is that I just "rediscovered" It's Tomorrow Already less than a year ago now. I remember not liking it as much when it came out -- probably because it's such a departure from the sound of his previous two albums -- and now I can't get enough of it; I could listen to the title track on repeat for days on end. Mixmaster Morris has a completely remarkable talent for layering different sounds in a more intrinsically musical and melodious fashion than any other artist I know. And it's a crime that he has released so little of his own music. MM, it's time to release another album.
