Biography
Harvey McKay has emerged from Glasgow’s underground clubbing scene to become one of the hottest prospects in electronic music today. From his breakthrough track Nightwalker on Soma Records – which quickly garnered massive support from Richie Hawtin, becoming his most played track for 6 months – Harvey has built a reputation for one-off originals, killer remixes with DJ sets that travel from deep driving house to powerful techno but always with a dark energetic party signature sound.
Since then Harvey's career has gone from strength to strength, gaining support from Adam Beyer, Stephan Bodzin, Laurent Garnier, Michael Mayer, Luke Slater, Slam and Green Velvet.
Although he is never one to be pigeonholed by genre , his very unique driving sound is there throughout all his productions. From the jacking tech house sound of summer hit ‘Show Face’ on Saved Records, to the deep powerful techno of ‘Supercell’ on Drumcode and his house tracks on Soma Records - Harvey is never afraid to vary the style and vibe of his productions, always experimenting sonically.
With releases on Drumcode, Soma, Saved,, Trapez & 8-Sided Dice and with further Eps and a string of huge remixes confirmed for 2012, Harvey is set to continue crafting his individual techno sound that he has become known and respected for.
