Tim McCall, also known as Jirah / Resonant Dawn, is known for creating energetic and atmospheric trance music, and through his new creation Resonant Dawn is moving into the future with a fusion of psychedelic sound and world beats.
Since 1997, Tim has been working in the electronic music scene as a dj / producer under the name of Jirah. His music has been heard far and wide, and he has traveled around the globe performing his own unique blend of melodious, funky, high-energy psytrance. Tim has worked with some of the best labels in the business, producing several albums and appearing on countless compilations.
Raised in a very musical family, he learned much about music and the importance it plays in our lives. He was drawn early on from the age of 12 to 80's pop and early techno music, leading him to experiment with various instruments and digital processing. At age 16 he began to dj a mixture of house and progressive trance. His first exposure to goa/psy music came with the release of the "Blue Room / Trip Through Sound" compilation in 1997, which did much to influence him to dj and ultimately produce this type of sound. Jirah was formed in 1997 first as a dj name then soon after as the artist name.
In 2008, Tim began a new journey into the world of chillout and downtempo under the artist name "Resonant Dawn". There are no boundaries in this music; it is anything and everything, always painting unique and fascinating pictures in sound. Sometimes chilled and meditative, while other times funky and upbeat, there is a little something for everyone! Two Resonant Dawn albums will be released soon; "Endless Resonance" on Synergetic Records and "Waking Moments" Psymbolic Sounds.
Aside from his personal music projects, Tim has recently ventured into the world of sample production, releasing his first psytrance sample library on Zenhiser Pro Audio in 2009. Many good things are on the way so stay tuned! The best is yet to come...
