Haruka

Genre-fluid techno and breakbeat wizard weaving underground NYC vibes.

Based in Brooklyn, New York, Haruka is a versatile DJ and producer who relocated from Japan in 2006. She is a fixture of the local underground scene, known for technical sets that fluidly traverse techno, house, electro, breakbeat, and UK-influenced sounds. Her production work, often released under the moniker Haruka Salt, includes the EP HarukaMart, which features collaborations with Fat Tony and Toribio. She maintains regular appearances at Brooklyn venues such as Bossa Nova Civic Club, Nowadays, and Mood Ring, while contributing to influential parties like BOUND and Fourth World. Haruka stands out as a technical, thoughtful selector who prioritizes deep crowd connection and genre-fluidity over rigid adherence to a single style.
