    Lemon8 is one of the projects of Dutch DJ and producer Harry Lemon. In 1993 Harry released a track which he called “Model8”. The techno / minimal production that came out on Basic Energy, a sub-label of Rotterdam based Basic Beat Recordings, became a massive success in the dance scene. In 2006 it got re-released via Plus 8 Records, the label from Richie Hawtin and John Acquaviva.
    Later Harry also released other successful tracks such as “New York, New York”, “Bells Of Revolution” and the Bedrock classic “Lose Control”
    I recently sat down with Harry in his studio, to ask him about the story behind “Model8”, his future plans and more.
    Enjoy and thanks for watching!

    Lemon8 had great records in the early 2000s, as a dj i bought almost all his records and still have them. Always admired Harry. I hope he's doing fine now and is able to pick up where he left off. Generally seems like a great guy.

    Top interview weer Twan. Ik was een groot fan van diverse producties van Harry Lemon 8. Ik vind ook zijn producties heel goed in elkaar zitten en vol geluid! Ik hoop dat mensen nog eens luisteren naar al die classics. Mijn persoonlijke favorieten zijn 'Pressure' en zijn remix van Solid Session (waar je ook een interview van gedaan hebt)! Trouwens Twan goed dat je verschillende producers en stijlen onder de loep neemt! Grappig het verhaal van The Navigator track, want Harry Lemon heeft volgens mij later ook voor de toen jonge Ferry Corsten in ieder geval 1 remix gemaakt. Zij hebben allebei een Basic Beat verleden en zijn totaal een andere kant op gegaan! Ik ga zeker even kijken naar Harry's nieuwe materiaal, ik ben benieuwd!

      You can’t compare commercial guys like Armin with these icons who were there when the first techno sounds took over the clubs. Enjoyed it a lot as DJ to buy my records at Basic Beat and speak to him when he was there behind the counter or in the shop. Also listened to some nice setups at Nighttown. Great music history this man 👍🏻
