Ardz aka Jay Harding is a producer/live act DJ hailing from Manchester England, with a worrying obsession for techno. Ardz started spinning at 15 years of age. Early career influences by Craig Richards, Audion, Hearthrob, Steve Bug, Chris Finkie and Richie Hawtin, helped him develop his cross from dark minimal to techno style. Techno is certainly a way of life for Ardz.
He first developed a love for all things digital when a friend passed him a demo of the first pilot copy of Ableton Live. He was instantly hooked on the diversity of creating something completely new. In early 2006 Ardz decided to study at Manchester Midi School, this was the building block for creating constantly evolving techno, rumbling bass lines and rhythms, glitch moments and deep dark vocals.
Ardz has played for [KONCEPT] and Coloursound in the UK. The future holds lots of new projects.
