Introducing
HARSHIL KAMDAR
Harshil Kamdar is a 16-year-old producer born in India & based in New Jersey, USA. Having found a love of trance music from his father, who played him classics like Robert Miles' Children & Fable in his childhood, he began diving deeper into dance music and eventually started producing trance music. After sending some ideas to German trance legend Ronski Speed, they ended up collaborating on 3 tracks, which all landed up on top-tier labels. His debut track Bäng, released on Andy Moor's label AVA White, gathered support from many radio shows, namely Armin van Buuren's A State Of Trance & Andrew Rayel's Find Your Harmony. This gave the then-15-year-old producer a huge jumpstart, and his next two releases were bigger than ever, both being played by Armin & Ruben on A State Of Trance.
The first track, Never Fade Away, was a vocal trance collaboration with producer Tim Lighterz & Ukrainian vocalist Alaera, which got signed on Digital Society. The second one, Venice, was a very special tune, as it was Harshil's first-ever solo track. It got picked up by John O'Callaghan's legendary label Subculture, which instantly put the producer's name on the ones to watch. Following this, Harshil started to seek out a way to fulfill his longtime goal, to get onto Armin van Buuren's label Armada Music. Armada, being the biggest dance record label in the world, wasn't an easy label to release on, and Harshil knew that. But, after help from his mentor Nicholas Gunn, who helped introduce him to the Armada team, and sending constant demos for more than a year, he finally had the chance to remix a classic trance tune from the 2000s: Chemical Love by K90. As soon as he sent in his first version of the remix, The A&Rs loved it. It soon saw a release on Armada Captivating, which led to support from DJs like Armin van Buuren, who played it twice on his A State Of Trance radio show, Andrew Rayel, who played it on his radio show 'Find Your Harmony', and many more...
After conquering his dream of releasing on Armada, Harshil's goal now lies in releasing consistently on the big labels, and with releases lined up almost every month for 2022 & 2023, he can't wait to show you his best releases to date.
