Boy Harsher is a minimal synth duo that produces dance beats infused with ethereal vocals. The music created is somewhere between electro dance, synth-pop and confessional storytelling.
Boy Harsher started in early 2013 under the name Teen Dreamz. The project was based on short stories written and read by Matthews then live scored by Muller. In January of 2014 Teen Dreamz took on the moniker Boy Harsher.

May 16, 2022I had a wonderful Dj life. Certainly not in a $$$ sense, but depth and variety. Mostly gigging non club crowds, (boy did that change in the early 90’s, I played w a dozen Grammy artists, super bowl player only party, etc etc.), I would venture out most times, and make the riskiest place, the last stop, which more often than not, was “The Blue Crystal”. This where I wet my whistle, ( mostly gawk and stare), at the characters that made the scene. The hardies, the lites, the not dressed for this crowd at all peeps like me, and the confused and wonderful as they wore their emotions on their sleeves for all to see. The dj’s, most in New Orleans, took on dj roles at underground joints pretty seriously, were really good, and very private. I honed my people/dj skills in this scene, learning to find which dj’s were cool, and had the skills and the confidence to let a stranger “in”. The people made the joint. Dj/music second. The recreational material, well, that’s a book I write in my sleep when I hear bells and whistles, and yes, chains crackling in sync with a beat.
Years later, I became one of the biggest Dj’s for my time, in The French Quarter, home to the “Original Goth” life styles, and witnessed things in back rooms above strip clubs, I would gig, that Discogs would ban me, and you would probably too if I ever told. 👀😁🍩
