adultnapper, real name francis harris, is a philosophy phd drop-out with punk rock roots. hailing from suburban las vegas, he has called brooklyn home for the past 9 years - a stretch in which he has gone from >hating dance music<, to establishing himself as an underground dj/producer with a unique sound and a global audience.

nycs adultnapper hardly ever lets his foot off the gas… and this is no exception! straight back into the driving seat and ready to roll with his next ep for poker flat recordings, slowly is a typically spooked out 2 tracker from the east coasts master of the dark and funky arts…. lead track slowly is full of the type of crazy textural soundscapes that have become synonymous with adultnappers bass infected sound. winding, twirling cables and messed up electronic whir away in the background as a stoic kick-led percussion array works the funk. jazz influenced hooks, sultry vocals and horns-a-plenty, it all makes for an incredible workout! gold and forgetting is a touch more mysterious, with a floating chicago-esque synth theme at its tender heart. of course mr. napper still piles on the funk, and this amazing afterhours anthem to be wins us over hands down. emotional strings swathe by over a meandering 9 minutes of pure and precious metallic sheen
after a rather long break, this june will finally see the next release on orphanear records, the berlin-based label ran by pawel, who recently celebrated the release of his highly praised first full-length album on dial records. orphanear 004 introduces a stunningly talented singer and songwriter from denmark, called gry. she isnt new to the music world at all, worked previously on critically acclaimed projects with fm einheit and under various other project names such as the loverz and aeter with jacob kirkegaard. orphanear releases two remixes of her track >all comes<, that will be included on her forthcoming ep >anima<. one beautifully deep and masterfully produced remix by german wunderkind christian loeffler and a peak time stomper by adultnapper from new york. prepare to hear much more soon from this lady with the amazing voice.
adultnappers original mix of monitor is a minimalist, atmospheric house outing with warm, evocative piano chords. percussive and synth soundscapes wash over the groove adding a stylish textural dynamic. conversely, mkl vs bgss (members of the group brazillian girls) step onto the scene with a live, organic funkafied jam that steps skillfully through afrobeat and retro disco/funk territory without missing a beat.
yc‘s adultnapper has built a reputation for himself that not only commands respect for his highly evolved production skills, but also for his unique musical visions that steer him down his own unique path. not interested in following the current pop-trends, adultnapper turns in a freaky two tracker using a sharp, modular and timeless electronic sound palette. ‚almost nothing‘ is a complex and reduced spacer that features wonderfully processed drums and endless tweaked out studio trickery. haunting smatterings of melody, synth texture and paranoid-funky vocals drop in and out of the mix as this deep acidic groover charms you from the inside. poker flat regular patrick chardronnet provides a wicked remix that begins along the same reduced, textural tip as the original, yet builds into a breathtaking organ led harmonic climax. dramatic, uplifting and main-room friendly chardronnet‘s remix opens up the spectrum once again as audiomatique continues to surprise. ‚white fingers black hair‘ is the b side jam from adultnapper. a skipping, similarly complex and meandering groove is jacked up with some dirty hats and a playful synth theme that revolves around the track, amongst building strings and gated snares as its freaky climax is unveiled. super, off the wall stuff from nyc‘s chief mindwaper himself
supported by: nic fanciulli, slam, tedd patterson, lauhaus, plasmik, michel cleis, livio & roby, clive henry, paul woolford, guy gerber, mark henning, mr g, adultnapper, brothers vibe, afrilounge, catz n dogz, gorge, alex flitsch, meat, boris werner, ekkohaus, solomun, trickski, mazi, miss jools
clinks next installation brings a new artist to its catalogue, featuring the work of new yorks acclaimed brooklynite, adultnapper. these tunes are loaded with buoyant percussion and peak-time concepts via synthesizer sampling and manipulation, hence the title, >borrowed keys<. adultnapper is most recently noted for his highly publicized mix compilation and release on steve bugs label, audiomatique, and in addition to clink he has work coming up on pokerflat and crosstown rebels. he is also the owner of the ransom note imprint, and through many years of dedication to the nyc tech-house/minimal scene, he has become a new york underground icon. he first captured our eyes nearly 7 years ago for his insanely popular sunday boat parties in manhattan, titled matter:/form, which later became a tech-house imprint featuring many of the uk icons such as terry francis and eddie richards
beautiful bleepy dubby house music by echologist (aka beat pharmacy aka brendon moeller) with a jackin remix by jus ed and an equally cool by ny’s adultnapper
after some very well received releases for the likes of renaissance and kickboxer records, stephan hinz, who has also turned out some hot tracks alongside martin eyerer, presents >bacala<. its a cheekily warped excursion into hinz‘s deep and melancholic dancefloor world, spurred on by a great theme melody, as if you found yourself in the middle of a medieval rave after a long and victorious battle! tight, familiar percussion works the groove, building towards a dramatic break which introduces more layers of synthesised wonder! check this in the main room for maximum effect. audiomatique key player adultnappers remix comes on strong, with a tougher drive and a slightly more freaked out vibe. trademark hissing percussion works over a finely tuned minimal groove, eventually allowing that haunting melody to show its colours. designed for the more freaky floors, yet still focused on melody and progression, its another great example of adultnappers remixing skills

schwer überzeugende technogeschütze vom ex punk-rocker aus brooklyn. komplex, düster, durschlagend und nebenbei das beste was adultnapper bisher gemacht hat
while the delusional machinery of everyday life blindly stretches the forces that shape our lives into an asinine periphery, an ultraviolet fantasy for weak minds, nature has only a fleeting sufferance for the reversal of its involuntary movements. maxwell s demon is not just a mathematical proposition, it is alive and kicking in the beige strip malls, sweaty megaplexes, and vertiginous mini golf parks of class optimism. as the ordered penchant for division increases, paranoia proliferates a thousandfold, and in this constant state of implosion the laughably purposeful complexities of human machinery reveal themselves as a collective sublimation from matter organized under the sign of a smoking gun. adultnapper lays down a fresh original mix and mastermind alexi delano cleans and tightens the cut
funky sinister techhouse with a lot of detroit influnces from brooklyns most notorious sonic criminal, the adultnapper !! huge support from alexi delano

incl phat martin buttrich and adultnapper remixes !! supported by 3 channels, michael mayer, paul woolford, dj naughty and angoria... original is already a classic
tommy bones strikes out on the a side with south africa deep, with a hypnotic tribal rhythm infused with a driving groove that invokes the dark energy of the soweto midnight and the effervescence of the new york underground. the b side starts out with adultnappers face it, a stark minimalist soundscape full of atmospheric techno mindtrips, last up but certainly not leastis mkls seven times an aggressive addictive minimalist style with heather kroffs esoteric vocals somewhere in between bjork and tracey thorne
zweiter adultnapper release auf mule und anders als auf dem vorgänger geht es hier düsterer zur sache. zwei funktionale nachtschattengewächse für ausufernde schwarzlichtschlachten
the original is a monster on the dancefloor , we ve been dropping it for months now and had enormous feedback wherever we played it. it will take dirt crew recordings into another direction and will continue where the tigerskin release left off. a new and fresh view on minimal and trance but never forgetting the house groove and that s what it s all about for us. the b-side features a cool old shool approach to the track by mr c who has been a long time partner of francis and is also involved in his matter:-form label. he takes the main groove of the record and adds some nice acid lines to it , all in a true 808 based groove , real analogue power !!
francis harris aka adultnapper(mule electronic, dirt crew rec, audiomatique) delivers a great peaktime electro techhouse rocker with dark analog basslines and hypnotic synth melodies matched with crisp percussion sounds.. the b side contains futuristic late night techhouse !!
die new york-tokio connection bringt einen der clubbigsten mule releases hervor. grummelnd im bassbereich und scharf bis melancholisch in den höheren gefilden

francis harris is a founding member of the scissor & thread label a brooklyn-based imprint established 2011 as an outlet for deeper, more personal sounds, as well as music from a range of associated artists including black light smoke, bob moses, frank & tony, dj aakmael, desert sound colony and aris kindt, to name a few. harris own output has gone from tightly wound tech house cuts as adultnapper in the early days, sublime deep house as frank & tony, intricate and expressive musical journeys as evident in his two solo-albums ‘leland and ‘minutes of sleep, and ambient shoegaze with two aris kindt albums, co-produced with gabe hedrick. most recently harris branched out with a new label kingdoms a home for his love of a more adventurous sound. now we are proud to present his new solo single, the first since the release of ‘minutes of sleep, ‘minor formswhich includes two remarkable remixes by valentino mora. more we cannot do is a perfect example of harris feel for depth and dynamics a track that feels submerged in a warm amniotic fluid cocooning the listener in a thick subby bassline, providing much of the groove, with skittering percussion on top and intricate fragments of melody throughout leading to a wonderful moment with live vibraphone provided by new york player will shore. minor forms, the eps title track is cut from similar cloth emerging from a subtly distant place to inhabit a melancholic, beautifully evocative space somewhere between ambient, jazz and the dancefloor. joining harris is greg paulus on trumpet, a long time friend and collaborator adding his signature touch to an already moving piece.
frank & tony aka artists formerly known as adultnapper and anthony collins, respectively, are it again on the former s new york based scissor & thread imprint. first up -apprentice- is a well-crafted deep house cut with swirling, captivating pads that build to a climax. lamento with its sexy bassline, playing off the thumping drum programming and yet more swirling pads that they ve proven to do so well. lastly modest season is the sort of smoky, dubby, after hours house that swiss producer agnes was known for similarly, back in the day.
nice price deal !!! together as sycophant slags, mr. c and adultnapper began their sonic journey several years ago after a week long studio session in nyc. during that time three shared a car ride with mr c with the tracks of that session as the soundtrack and the dharma fields release was born. along with crawl up. two tracks that continue to sound as timely as they are timeless! more recently the slags have released standouts on get physical, their massive remix of reverse commuter - southern charge (also on hallucination limited) and possibly their biggest track to date --- keep off --- on poker flat recordings which sees mr c returning to the mic in a sublime style thats rocked dance floors the world over.
