With a lot of history left burning in its wake, Admiral Black is a forward thinking, forward moving entity that first began in Berlin. Shaun moved from Dublin to the German capital with his Humanzi team-mates in search of something different. The spark came when he met musician and producer Earl Harvin who has worked with (to name but a few) Air, Tindersticks, The The, Jeff Beck and Seal (Yeah..Seal!!!). While DJing at dirty Berlin haunt ”CCCP Bar”, Shaun recognized Earl (from seeing him play drums with Air) as he walked in on what was a quiet night at the club. Within ten minutes Mulrooney had him agreeing to produce an album for him. After many false starts, the pair eventually set about making a record that revolved around Mulrooney”s solo writings. Earl produced, helped with additional instruments and banged the drums. Shaun played pretty much everything else, The results of which can now be found on Admiral Black”s forthcoming Debut album ”Phantasmagoric”. ”The Admiral” found a label in the guise of prestigious german indie ”Hazelwood”, who are distributed through the mighty ”Rough Trade”. The future is now stained with possibility.
