KRISTY HARPER

With appearances at clubs and festivals across Europe and Asia such as Magnetic Fields, Snowbombing, Houghton and Love International, guest mixes for Slothboogie, Zeezout and Red Light Radio and regular all night long vinyl sets at the legendary Brilliant Corners, pre-pandemic times were pretty busy for Kristy as a DJ.

While her club sets centre around house, Italo and acid, Kristy demonstrates the full spectrum of her musical knowledge on her two hour radio slots at Operator Radio Rotterdam and Netil Radio London. Her regular radio shows have seen her broadcast B2B sessions with underground music’s most talented selectors such as Hugo Mari, Kassian, Christophe (Futureboogie), Joe Corti, Wayward and Ben Gomori. Here you can listen to her play anything from jazz and rare groove to synth pop and zouk.

In October 2019, Kristy released her track ‘Uncle Jungle’ as part of the ‘Dialogues’ VA on Monologues Records alongside Paxton Fettel, Manakinz and Maxime Alexander. A smoky late night groove featuring some infectious roaring diva vocals. The track and subsequent EP on the same label racked up support from some of Kristy’s biggest influencers; Black Loops, Demuir, Luke Solomon, Jacques Renault, Fouk, Shadow Child and Krywald and Farrer to name a few. The EP vividly represents her eclectic DJ sets, blending disco, house and Latin elements.

Kristy started off 2020 with her debut Australian tour and follows with multiple musical collaborations and a string of releases. In May, she released an acid and Italo dance floor belter on Jacques Renault’s label ‘Let’s Play House’NYC. The track received support from Radio 1, Rinse FM and Ministry of Sound. In addition, it garnered playlist and radio plays from acclaimed producers such as Mele, Hot Since 82, CC:Disco!, Move D, Call Super, Alison Swing, Dave Harvey and PBR Streetgang.

Over the U.K. lockdown period between March and June, Kristy hosted a series for Identification of Music called ‘Lockdown Live’. Here, she hosted long form interviews with members of the electronic music community to discuss the future of the scene. She chatted with artists such as Detroit Swindle, Archie Hamilton, TSHA and platforms such as Mixcloud and Mixmag.

In the winter of 2020 she released ‘My Body. My Future’ on her own imprint ‘Sanctified Dreams’. In the track she samples Samirah Raheem’s viral interview with Jesse Lee Peterson at the LA ‘slut walk’. It received recognition from BBC Radio 1 and reached 300k streams on Spotify and Tik Tok in the first 3 months.
