Mixpak Interview Series: Harvard Bass
November 19th, 2009
Harvard Bass has been making a name for himself using minimal house inspired building blocks to build catchy, layered tracks with substance. Hot off the heels of his Sound Pellegrino debut EP have come an unrelenting series of remixes for Drop The Lime, The Toxic Avenger, Mom & Dad, Sinden, Acid Girls and Teki Latex.
Even though he was writing everything to me from his iPhone, and, despite the fact that my internet kept spontanously signing off (my apartment may be haunted), I got a chance to chat with Victor and get a look into where he’s at and where he’s headed next.
Interview by Brendan Arnott, my text in bold.
When you were growing up, what were your big musical influences?
My musical influences when I was young spread a bunch of varieties. It moved from Weezer to Tupac to The Beatles. But in the house scene I began to listen to a lot of Mark Farina mixes, I was maybe around 13 when I got into dance music.
You say Weezer are one of your influences… they just did a song with Little Wayne, how do you feel about that?
I think it’s awesome that different genres can work together like that.
