2.He's currently one of the hottest producers in the music industry and in 2005 provided one of the chart-topping remixes - a deep house anthem affair - of "Don't Forget About Us" by Mariah Carey.

3.Born and raised in Detroit, music was always a big part of his life with a vocalist mother and a father who played the trumpet. His pre-teen years saw him tackling the piano and trumpet and by the age of 14 he was performing live with his aunt's blues band. By age 20 he was apart of studio recording sessions with Aretha Franklin.

4.Harris came of age inspired by many of the Motown legends as well as by Prince and the P-Funk sound of George Clinton and Parliament. Being from Detroit, he was also influenced by the early techno house sound.

5.A modern day urban artist, Harris was also influenced by hip-hop and was part of the same Detroit scene that produced the likes of Eminem and Proof.

6.During the 1990s, Harris' house music sensibilities were shaped by frequent trips to NYC and hanging out at legendary clubs such as the Sound Factory, Sound Factory Bar, Be Yourself, Body & Soul, and the original Shelter.

7.After permanently relocating to NYC by the start of the new millennium, Harris got involved in remixing and production work, building a stellar reputation for his soulful and complex deep house efforts that have proven popular on a wide variety of dance floors the world over. His tracks get consistent and enthusiastic support from the likes of Danny Tenaglia, David Morales, Hex Hector, Frankie Knuckles, Pete Tong, Roger Sanchez, Deep Dish, Derrick Carter, and Francois K.

8.As a DJ, Harris has been inspired over the years by Detroit's Ken Collier of Heaven Nightclub, DJ Timmy Regisford in New York, and the success of Club Stereo in Montreal.
