There are multiple artists recording as Dirty K.

Dirty K is a UK based Rhythm & Noize live act duo, that appeared in early 2006 as an experimental studio project, Both members, Kaysha & Ryan, had been heavily into electronic music for a long time beforehand.

After many radio plays and interest in their music they both decided they had enough material to make a live show. The first show was at a local allday festival called Zeitgeist which they headlined; since then they have had gigs up and down the UK, some of which have been at the legendary Slimelight club in London, as well as in the rest of the UK.

Dirty K have also played at Antyscena Festival in Gdynia, Poland. Sharing the stage with the likes of Mono No Aware, Iszoloscope, The PCP Principle, Wieloryb, Winterkälte, Synapscape and Sabes. Whilst keeping a yearly gig appearance they have also maintained a busy studio schedule. To date they have released four full length albums as well as a number of E.P's, remixes and compilation tracks.

Both Kaysha and Ryan are responsible for production/programming and live shows as well as being heavily involved in their own design work. They have a sound which can be described as a soundtrack to the apocalypse; a blend of ambient drone, industrial and powerful distorted beats aimed at the dancefloor.

In January 2012 Dirty K were signed to the seminal HANDS label, which will see them live on stage at the Forms Of Hands Festival in Germany in April 2012 and will see the release of their CD album "Torrent Of Fury". Dirty K also played festivals such as Summer Darkness in the Netherlands, Infest UK and Maschinenfest Germany to tour there new album.
