How lengthy have you ever been DJing and producing? If you weren’t a DJ/producer, what profession path would you might have chosen as an alternative?
I believe I’d for certain work in movie, particularly on the manufacturing aspect. I’m a giant film buff… I’ve seen all of the rom-coms.
Your new single “Medicine” simply launched on June 30. What are you able to share with us concerning the story behind “Medicine” and the way would you describe the tune?
I’d describe “Medicine” as a melody pushed really feel good piano home file with some tropical parts sprinkled all through. I had been engaged on a bunch of latest productions and actually vibing with piano home, messing round with some stable piano pushed instrumentals. From there, we have been on the lookout for the fitting topline to suit on this one as a result of we knew it was particular. After some time of seeing what is perhaps the very best match, I linked with Syd and the “Medicine” topline actually was the proper match. After months of perfecting it, I couldn’t be happier with the tip end result.
You’re making your Lowly debut with “Medicine.” How do you’re feeling about becoming a member of the Lowly household and their respected roster of artists?
It feels completely unimaginable to be part of a label with artists like NGHTMRE, Bonnie X Clyde, Said The Sky, William Black, and others that I’ve appeared as much as, and to have a group that actually believes within the music I’m making proper now.

You’ve gotta keep in there and maintain believing in your self as a result of as powerful an business as it’s there’s actually nothing higher.

Just a few weekends in the past I performed a 5 and a half hour b2b set with my pal Deleasa at a brand new membership within the metropolis referred to as The Stranger and that was wild. There have been insane circus acts performing round us all evening.
If you needed to embrace one tune in each set for the remainder of your profession, what would it not be and why? Which tune would you be comfortable to by no means play once more?
Besides my very own music, I’d fortunately play “Levels” by Avicii all day lengthy. As for a tune that by no means must be performed by me once more…most likely “Like A G6.”
What does the remainder of the 12 months have in retailer for HARBER?
Get prepared for plenty of new music and plenty of exhibits. Full steam forward!
