HATIRAS

Hatiras is a two-time Juno Award winner and owner of one of the planet’s hottest and most prolific independent house music labels — Spacedisco Records. He was ranked the world’s #1 Jackin House artist according to Traxsource several times in recent years and has amassed millions of streams through his releases.

His first UK Top Ten and global hit record was Spaced Invader, released on Defected Records at the turn of the millennium. It was named Pete Tong’s “Essential New Tune” twice and launched Hatiras’ career as a globally touring artist.

His roots in the electronic music scene run very deep. He played a major role in North America’s rave scene as the mastermind of Liquid Adrenaline raves, hosting parties for thousands of people and developing the careers of many DJs and artists. He currently organizes Spacedisco Records parties across the globe to showcase his music and that of the artists on his label. His recent shows have been in markets including Amsterdam, Las Vegas, Toronto, Brooklyn, Portland, Chicago, and Berlin, to name a few.

As a producer, Hatiras has collaborated with artists including Low Steppa, Junior Sanchez, Kylie Minogue, Angelo Ferreri, DJ Dan, Sebb Junior, Bad Boy Bill, and many more. He has released music on labels including Defected, Toolroom, Dirtybird, Simma Black, Afro Acid, Farris Wheel, Milk & Sugar, Glasgow Underground, Universal Music, and Sony.

Over the years, Hatiras has amassed a catalogue of over 500 releases, four artist albums, and has performed across the world, including shows in Tokyo, Wire Festival Yokohama, across Australia, every major city in the US, Mexico, Colombia, the UK, Germany, Belgium, seven times at Burning Man, and Ultra Music Festival Miami.

In 2024, he released his fifth full-length artist album Starlight, which includes 11 tracks ranging from house music to nu disco to techno. His creativity and versatility are on full display in this project.

To say Hatiras is on a roll is an understatement — it’s next to impossible to check the House and Jackin House sales charts these days without finding at least a few tunes he has touched.
