About
Kirk Degiorgio, also known as As One, is a British techno producer and DJ. Born in the late 1960s in Stepney, East London, and raised in Ipswich, Suffolk, he started producing music in the early 1990s.
Between 1998 and 2001, he hosted the "R Solution" show on Kiss 100 FM alongside 4hero which was influential in the development of broken beat.
He founded the labels A.R.T. Records and Op-Art Records and releases on them as well as B12 Records, R&S Records, New Electronica, and others. His style is a mixture of Detroit-style techno, mixed with funk, soul and jazz fusion.
In 2023 he announced his retirement from DJing, citing health reasons.
