Parisian producer and DJ, harrry, known for his work with electronic duo SuperParka, has unveiled his latest solo offering, the captivating single ‘all i had’, featuring the fresh vocals of newcomer sugah. This track marks a noticeable shift in harrry’s sound, moving away from his previous hip-hop influenced releases towards a vibrant blend of indie and pop-rock, reminiscent of artists like Beabadoobee and Clairo.
‘all i had’ showcases harrry’s versatility as a producer. The song builds around a foundation of distorted, psych-infused guitars, echoing the sounds of Beabadoobee, while the driving drumbreak brings to mind the expansive feel of a Tame Impala record. This combination creates a dynamic backdrop for sugah’s vocals, which harrry describes as “a powerful pop anthem, yet vulnerable, that blends soft vocals performance à la Clairo with a stadium energy instrumental”. The result is a compelling juxtaposition of intimacy and anthemic power.
harrry’s musical journey has been one of exploration, traversing various genres from hip-hop and electronic music to pop. His solo project reflects this diverse background, taking his music in unexpected and exciting new directions. Crafted across multiple locations, including New York, London, and Paris, these tracks are the product of collaborations with friends and fellow artists. Working with live instrumentation and sample-based techniques, harrry has developed a unique and playful approach to production.
His previous singles have already hinted at this artistic evolution. ‘different’, a collaboration with Londoner LYAM and producers Coop the truth and Frank Dukes, showcases an experimental hip-hop style, blending the falsetto vocals of artists like Bon Iver and James Blake with contemporary phrasing, capturing a sense of youthful unease. ‘said so’, featuring LEGZDINA, is a short burst of pure energy, with virtuosic rap flow, chants, and melodic elements over a raw bassline, evoking a more stripped-back version of Doja Cat’s sound.
With ‘all i had’, harrry continues to redefine his musical identity. This single not only highlights his production skills but also his ability to craft compelling and emotionally resonant songs. It sets the stage for a promising year ahead, with more releases planned for 2025. Listeners can expect further sonic adventures as harrry continues to push boundaries and explore the intersection of indie, pop, and rock influences.
