Hugh Lake is the 27-year-old songwriter, producer and DJ who has already made a mark on the Australian music scene with an eclectic mix of singles to his name. 

Lake’s unorthodox journey to success follows his start as HFNR, notorious club DJ in his hometown of Melbourne, Australia; he is known for his eclectic RnB and Afrobeat influenced sets appearing alongside Sophie Grophy, Lil Spacely, Genesis Owusu, Manu Crooks, Hancoq, I.E., Kwame and 360. He soon moved into production, first in his bedroom and then in makeshift studio “The Cabin” built in the backyard of close collaborator and friend Kwasi, with whom he signed to urban label WVS/Onelove in early 2017 as “Kwasi x HFNR”. The HFNR era saw a slew of new wave hip hop projects that were pivotal in shaping the Australian sound.

In 2020 he dropped the HFNR moniker, broadening his scope as a genre-bending songwriter and producer that infuses Hip Hop, RnB, Electronic and Pop like no one else. He would show off his impressive tastemaking, writing and production skills on Melbourne-based, South African born R&B artist Ceeko’s debut EP ‘Where Do We Begin’, which was co-written and produced by Lake in a series of writing sessions at the Alt Music studio in Melbourne. That same year in the midst of COVID lockdowns he co-wrote and produced Platinum hit “Bigger” with Stan Walker and close collaborator and fellow producer HAMLEY. They would collaborate again to mix and produce a re-imagining of the Split Enz classic “Poor Boy'' to celebrate the 40th anniversary of their seminal album “True Colours”. 

He then cemented his genre-hopping presence after a move to Sydney, writing and producing the grungy rap-ballad and sold out tour-titled “Riot” for Phi11a, before hopping on BOY SODA’s debut ode to heartbreak “LOVEU2BITS” alongside HAMLEY and following it up with local hit ‘Westside’ by Nardeen which was winner of the Paramatta Lanes 2021 song competition. Lake credits his mentor, producer and songwriter, IAMMXO with teaching him how to hustle and manage collaborative relationships. He has applied these lessons to the diverse mix of artists he works with and is currently in the studio with RnB artist Lara Andallo, working on her debut EP.

Independently selling over 100,000 units of his first album worldwide, Liquidsilva has branded himself across the globe as an artist with an unique original sound, voice and personality. Liquidsilva says “I will never make two songs that sound the same, no two rap flows that sound the same, no two lyrics that sound the same, no two beats that sound the same, no nothing”. 

 

The proven combination of talent and dedication has afforded Liquidsilva a portfolio of major support acts. Liquidsilva performed with hip hop legends such as 50Cent, Flo-Rida, Tony Yayo, Lloyd Banks, Snoop Dogg, the Ying Yang Twins, Naughty by Nature, Mobb Deep (G-Unit),  Jagged Edge,  Chingy, Jadakiss, LOX, Rakim (God MC), Melly Mel, Dj Kool Herc, Savage, P-Money and many more.

 

Off the strength of both his musical fitness and unrelenting work ethics, Liquidsilva has been invited to collaborate with many successful artists, including Proof (From Eminem’s D-12), and Grammy award winner singer / writer, Q from 112. The brand new album “Life Is Like  A Movie” is in stores NOW!! In  2010 Liquidsilva and 50 Cent’s Dj Whoo Kid teamed up to tour Asia. With three successful shows in three countries – India, China and Thailand, they returned to Asia in early 2011 with 5 more shows rocking the crowd leaving an unrivalled impression.Liquidsilva has performed all over the world branding his name alongside many international artists.
