Mike Galvin returns to LVLD Music for the 2nd time with his brand new single ‘Rubber Heart, Iron Soul’, delivering a moody and energetic sonic experience. This track immerses listeners into a hypnotic soundscape built on granulized synth textures, a resonant and powerful bassline, and an unrelenting rhythm that forgoes traditional build-ups and drops. Instead, Mike Galvin crafts a mesmerizing flow designed to draw listeners into a deep, trance-like state with each replay. The tension between ethereal sleekness and shadowy, hopeful aggression defines the track’s unique allure.
Looking ahead, Galvin continues to push expressive electronic compositions forward, with more solo releases on the horizon and exciting collaborations in the works. Notably, he is set to team up with UK vocalist Natalie Holmes, promising a fusion of his signature production style with her evocative voice.
Mike Galvin’s musical journey began with classical training before he found his way into Dublin’s underground rave scene in the 2000s, following a stint in indie bands. His diverse influences include jazz improvisation, epic film scores, and the raw energy of Berlin and Detroit’s house and techno movements. After relocating to Toronto in 2015, Mike Galvin expanded his creative reach, playing session guitar on releases and remixes for Canadian artists like Sophia Danai and composing film scores, including the award-winning Irish short film ‘A Silence Between’.
Today, his music captures both the introspective nostalgia of post-rave solitude and the deep emotional connection of communal dancefloor experiences. As he continues to evolve, Mike Galvin remains committed to crafting immersive soundscapes that resonate with both heart and movement.
Stay tuned for more from this dynamic artist as he continues to shape his ever-expanding sonic universe.
