Francis Harris aka Adultnapper (Scissor & Thread) with Sith and Some NYC Cats

  • FRANCIS HARRIS AKA ADULTNAPPER HEADLINES OUR LOFT PARTY ON FRIDAY MARCH 15TH 2013 FRANCIS HARRIS Scissor & Thread http://www.facebook.com/Adultnapper http://www.residentadvisor.net/dj/adultnapper FRANCIS HARRIS BIO: Granted, a somewhat intense punk rock kid from Vegas into philosophy and Pynchon isn’t the most likely candidate to become a club DJ, no less one of the leading American talents in the global electronic music underground, but that is the story of Francis Harris. Over 10 years ago, Francis quite accidentally “discovered” dance music and has approached the craft of DJing, composing and producing it with uncommon focus and dedication ever since. In the studio or the booth, Francis is known to be steadfast, thoughtful and purposeful; an uncompromising artist who takes his art seriously, even is it is “just” dance music. Over his career, that attitude and a fair bit of talent has earned Francis sustained critical notice and a loyal worldwide following. The scene’s aficionados have long favored the dark yet moving, introspective excursions Francis delivers as “Adultnapper” for respected dance music labels like Poker Flat, Mule Electronic, Simple and his own boutique imprint, Ransom Note. When teamed with Mr. C of The Shamen as Sycophant Slags, a mischievous streak behind the foreboding Adultnapper persona emerges, evidenced in a string of punchy dance anthems the duo have recorded for Get Physical and Poker Flat, including the 2009 hit single and video “Keep Off.” Firmly established now with 50+ dancefloor-oriented EPs to his credit, including recent high-profile collaborations with M.A.N.D.Y., Francis is no less inspired to continually challenge convention and expand the boundaries of his creativity. 2010 proved a pivotal year in this regard, as Francis embarked on the recording of his first full length album. Titled “Leland,” in tribute to his father, the album is a poi-gnant requiem featuring piano, guitar, cello, trumpet and vocals by Danish singer Gry. Although loosely based on house rhythms, “Leland” reaches beyond the club and in realizing this ambitious project, Francis forged new creative partnerships and rekindled a long dormant interest in songwriting, live instrumentation and performance, leading, in 2011, to the launch of Scissor and Thread.
