Moulton Music/Harlum Muziq/UnHarnessYoself

David Harness is one of the most popular DJ/producers in the San Francisco Bay Area club scene. He has been described as ‘a man who lives, breathes and emanates everything that is beautiful about deep house music and classic garage.’ David is considered a ‘rising star’ within the dance community.’ With influences varying from Barry White and the Love Unlimited Orchestra, Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes, Quincy Jones, the Jackson Five, Stevie Wonder, Parliament Funkadelic, the Isley Brothers and First Choice, among others it's easy to see why funk and soul have always been strong elements in his sound. In 1990, David began DJ’ing at the After Dark in his hometown of Monterey, California. As his popularity grew past the boundaries of Monterey, he was invited to establish a residency at Tilt and the Sound Factory in San Francisco. 

1994, David opened and DJ’ed at the popular club Lift at Club Dv8 (today known as Temple) in San Francisco. His success as a club DJ led to a DJ spot on commercial radio.  David joined the popular radio show Your Mama’s House on the San Francisco Bay Area’s number one radio station 106KMEL FM. Your Mama’s House was the only ‘true’ house mix show on any major radio station in Northern California. As part of the Your Mama’s House crew, David played a key role in exposing the masses to House Music in the San Francisco Bay Area till 1999. 

1995 David kicked off a seven year residency at San Francisco ‘s legendary Club Universe — San Francisco’s hottest Saturday night party. At Club Universe, David had the opportunity to play with many legendary DJs like Frankie Knuckles, Tony Humphries, Little Louie Vega, Tedd Patterson, Dave Morales, Danny Teneglia, London’s Simon Dunmore & Aaron Ross, Los Angeles’ Marques Wyatt, San Francisco’s Miguel Migs, Mark Farina and Kaskade, Quentin Harris, Dennis Ferrer, DJ Spen, Timmy Regisford, Doc Martin, Osunlade, Danny Krivit, Joe Clausell, Derrick Carter Mr. V, Kenny Dope, DJ Spinna— just to name a few. His growing popularity accelerated David’s natural progression into production.  In 1998, he released a CD for Universe Sounds and Twisted America, ‘Welcome to the Universe’. This innovative CD, recorded live from Club Universe, reflects San Francisco’s unique ‘sound’ and introduced the world to David Harness. Recognizing his talent, Twisted America quickly signed him to produce his first single, ‘Get It Together’, for a Twisted America compilation entitled ‘A Little Bit of the Old, A Lot of the New’.  In 1999, David started Taboo in San Francisco’s Mission District. Taboo started out of David’s love of House music and his desire to provide a showcase for Bay Area talent as well as internationally known DJs. Now in Oakland, this ongoing monthly party attracts a loyal crowd of househeads from around the San Francisco Bay Area and the globe to the this blending of spirit and soul.

Growing up in Texas and the Caribbean, Brian Brewster became associated with music
at a young age. Starting out as a reggae, dancehall, and hip hop singer, it wasn’t until
2005 when he moved to Paris that he would become connected with electronic music.
After meeting dOP in the French capital he began to spend a lot of time with the trio in
the studio and in 2010 Aquarius Heaven was born. The sound particularly interested
Brian because there were fewer limitations in electronic music and it gave him room to
experiment. He was able to push the boundaries of sound to create something outside of
the box of the typical house and techno machine. Never forgetting about his roots in
music you can still hear the colors of the Caribbean in his vocals.
After relocating to Berlin his first track “Before U Go” was released on the Watergate 06
compilation mixed by dOP. Shortly after that his debut full length EP was release on
Circus Company titled 7 days. The follow up to 7 days on Wolf + Lamb even further
catapulted him into the spotlight with a dark and sexy music video that created a lot of
buzz in the music-blog world before the EP was even released. Since his quick rise in the
ranks of the world of electronic music Aquarius Heaven has collaborated with some of the
best in the industry including Miss Kittin, Ryan Crosson, Art Department, Mathias Kaden
and many more. He continues to build a strong body of work on some of the most well
known and respect labels such as Circus Company, Crosstown Rebels, Visionquest, and
No. 19 Music.
Shining brightly as one of the stand out vocalists and performers in the scene Aquarius
Heaven has traveled the globe and back performing at some of the biggest clubs and
festivals such as Panorama Bar, Rex, Space, Watergate, and Zur wilden Renate to name
a few. Always in the studio pushing himself to the absolute limit he continues to push out
a high volume of quality work with two upcoming EPs in the new year one on his home
label Circus Company and another on Rhythm Cult. Showing no signs of slowing down
you can expect to continue to see Aquarius Heaven at the top of his game as a staple of
the electronic music world.
