DJ Harrison - Hazymoods

Vinyl LP pressing. DJ Harrison is Richmond, VA-based producer and multi-instrumentalist Devonne Harris. The son of a radio DJ who introduced him to the world of record collecting, Harris grew up with music, progressing from violin, to high school drum-line, to the Jazz Studies program at Virginia Commonwealth University. Despite his concentration on drumming, he also continued working with other instruments and developed an interest in sampling. Without a computer or sampler, he learned to replay samples on the drums, piano, bass or guitar. DJ Harrison finds himself inspired by local musicians in the Richmond scene that's as diverse and nonexclusive as they come. Amongst the likes of rappers, producers, punks and bluegrass bands, he falls within reach of an expansive pool of musicians to befriend and collaborate with. He lives and works in Jellowstone, a house turned recording compound occupied by his bandmates in Butcher Brown, a "garage punk jazz funk" group. HazyMoods - DJ Harrison's Stones Throw debut - was recorded there, where the living room functions as a communal recording studio.
