His debut album Hole Funk was released at the end of 2006 to press, DJ & public acclaim and it gave Harold a chance to indulge his musical passions and influences - aside from house music, the album contains hip hop and funk influenced tracks as well as electro and down tempo electronica too. IDj magazine said "...this is one immaculate debut". Harolds DJ schedule has taken him around the UK, to Europe and to the US as well as guest appearances on the London Underground House scene at Wiggle, Kerfuffle, Sizzle, Peg etc. His DJ sets move through the various shades of top-quality underground house and he also does a very nice sideline in funk / balearica too.
