Midland

About

Midland is the alias of British DJ, producer and record label owner Harry Agius (born 1986), who started out in Leeds and is now based in London. Known for genre-fluid sets that move between house, techno, rare disco and distinctly British sounds, he broke through in 2016 with the club hit 'Final Credits' and a BBC Essential Mix awarded Mix of the Year. He runs his own imprint Graded, founded in 2013, alongside the sub-labels Regraded and InterGraded. His debut album 'Fragments of Us' (2024) - a concept record exploring queer history through dance music - was named among the best albums of the year by Resident Advisor, Mixmag and DJ Mag.
