Dusky

Based in London, Dusky comprises Alfie Granger-Howell and Nick Harriman, two British producers who have worked together under this name since 2011 after an earlier period as Solarity. The duo operate across an electronic spectrum that blends deep house, tech house, techno, house, breakbeat and downtempo passages, with a writing approach aimed both at the club and at more direct listening. Dusky first drew attention with the album Stick by This in 2011 on Anjunadeep, then developed their trajectory through a series of EPs released on labels such as Aus Music, Simple, Dogmatik and Naked Naked, before launching their own label, 17 Steps, in 2014. That imprint now accounts for a substantial portion of their catalogue, while the pair continue to perform regularly on British and international electronic stages — from clubs like fabric and XOYO to festivals across Europe and North America. Dusky’s discography also includes the albums Outer (2016), Joy (2021) and Pressure (2022). In both productions and DJ sets, Dusky combines house grooves, techno textures and a direct melodic sensibility without confining themselves to a single aesthetic.
