Jared Lucas (stage name Kap Slap) is most notably known for his mashups, mixes and original music. He built his sizable following as a touring DJ while finishing an Honors Integrated Business and Engineering degree from Lehigh University. 

Performing at universities and clubs across the country, the multitalented college-student-turned-DJ broke through thanks to his mashups and mixes – infusing the energy and groove of electronic dance music with everything from current pop hits to Motown classics. Kap Slap has since performed at major festivals, including KAABOO, Hangout Music Festival, Snow Globe, Made in America, Firefly Music Festival, as well as countless top venues and nightclubs.

In a city, whose club and music culture breathes the spirit of the disco era more than any other in Europe, producers and label owners more than elsewhere feel obliged to guide the great legacy into a glorious present and future, supplying a unique level of quality and innovative spirit. A work ethic that’s affectionately being taken care of both in the overall vision and the small details. 

Equipped with years of music business experience and united by an equally long friendship the Munich based duo of Alex Mallios and Nick Bader made their dream come true in 2012 by founding the connoisseur indie label Love Harder. Their common goal: to release a few but stylishly selected tracks and thereby enrich the genre they always have been fans of themselves: house music. In all its facets. And all its possibilities.

The start for Love Harder couldn’t have been better: releases by signings such us Achilles & One, Guardate, Alex Mallios and Leo Kane not only garnered euphoric reviews, they regularly found their way into the upper regions of various genre charts.

But despite the great (media) feedback, the commercial success and inevitable label expansion the Love Harder-makers never lose sight of their original vision: to share the music they love with as many like-minded people as possible. Und to pass on the inspiration they repeatedly drew from the sounds in the clubs of their hometown of Munich.

Because in the end you have to feel it*

Wir sind zwei Unternehmer aus Hamburg, die von den Möglichkeiten neuer Tools und Methoden, um Arbeit zu verändern, begeistert sind. Bei allen Tools, Cloud, künstlicher Intelligenz und Co. sind wir zudem der Meinung, dass die Frage nach dem Sinn von und die Erfüllung durch Arbeit nie wichtiger war als heute. 

Auf einem gemeinsamen Trip nach New York kam uns die Idee, dass wir uns dem Thema am besten mit einem Buch nähern, das alle guten Konzepte, Ideen und Erfahrungen zusammen bringt. 

‘New Work’ wäre nicht ‘New Work’, wenn wir den Prozess dahin nicht auch gleich dokumentieren würden. Daher teilen wir auf dem Weg dahin unsere Eindrücke und alles, was dabei hilft, das Buch noch besser zu machen. 
Und daher eben ‘On the Way to New Work’.
