Who am I? And what am I doing? These eternal questions shape the story behind our latest Between The Beats film. Harry Agius, the UK artist best known as Midland, has considered them from a few different angles. The first, and most obvious, is from the perspective of an artist. Agius, who got his break around 2010 and went on to become one of the UK’s best-loved DJs, has come to understand the rollercoaster that is artistic self-confidence. He thinks deeply about the balancing act that DJs perform each weekend, keeping a disparate group of people happy on one hand, and expressing his tastes and his emotions on the other. This balance became a little more complicated in 2016 when he released “Final Credits.” He was excited by the success of this disco-sampling bomb, but he came to feel that it was defining him, creating distorted expectations about what he does as a DJ. For Agius, the ongoing question of artistic identity is also viewed through the lens of his sexuality. In the film, he discusses his long journey towards feeling comfortable in his own skin as a gay man, and how his path towards openness has intersected with his approach to DJing. These days, when he steps up to play, his aim is to reflect his truth through music.

This is the video that ‘between the beats’ really needed. A DJ who is isn’t up their own arse, has a great curiosity for music and a really refreshing approach. He also isn’t Seth Troxler. Which helps.
Nick Sanderson that seth Troxler one was the most cringe thing to watch...really changed my opinion of him
JSKRILL94 same here. Such a contrast with Midland. Haven’t stopped listening to him all day after this video.
Seth troxler is a narcissistic, egotistical imbecile.
a complete tool
Rick Smith it is horrendous. A complete tool
absolute diamond of a dj/producer and as a person too apparently
his music is great though
This was phenomenal. You can see how much he cares about not only the music but the opinions of critics and punters alike. Some people have got this "who gives a fuck" attitude when they play and largely play for themselves but not this guy. Big up.
Gotta do one with Floating Points !!!
So much more down to earth than other Between the Beats videos.
Such a great dude in person, we thanked him for a great set just this past weekend and he stopped, introduced himself asked our names and had a chat for a couple mins, super thankful that we enjoyed his set and gave us a hug as we said our farewells.
We need more people in the world like Harry!
As a gay man, this was so inspiring to see :) Thanks for sharing your story with us Midland and for providing the platform, RA!
Midland comes across as a humble and genuinely cool person, makes me love his music even more 😊
As others have said, really refreshing to see the vulnerability. Respect to RA for shooting, editing and most importantly keeping those bits in. Midland, you come across very well.
I wish this was about 2 hours longer
One more tune!
One more tune!
Midland is my absolute hero. I had the pleasure of spending some time with him and he is one of the greatest blokes I've ever met. Sooo talented. Soooo humble. Such an inspiration to LGBT Djs wanting to break through.
Been an admirier of Midland for a few years I always expect the unexpected with him and for me that makes a dj to always keep you guessing. Well done RA
So much admiration for Midland. I've had the chance to meet him and he truly is this genuine (same with Ben UFO). Fabric was my introduction to world-class nightclubs too, so that closing scene on the dance floor before the gig gave me chills. Well done video start to end.
incredible storytelling!! Great to see a man so humble in an industry of egos.
I have so much respect for this series. Thank you so much for sharing the light on Mental Health with artists, But also just showcasing what goes on behind the scenes with these peoples lives. It’s awesome.
That moment you hear Midlands' American husband quoting his mother (with regard to coming back home to the US or not) reassuring her son with the words along the lines of; "no dear it will be fine just stay there (London) for a while longer, you'll meet your Prince Harry eventually". Just that sentence alone made me instantly love both the husband and his wonderful mum. Already loved Midland before watching this video, though I didn't know he is a gay man. I'd like to say that does not affect the image I have of him, but I'm afraid it does. Because I might appreciate him even more for that. Though I'm not sure why. But man what a delightful bunch of people in this video; straight up positive vibes. One might even say it's fab.
After posting this I continued the video and mum strikes again. I love these people.
This makes me want to DJ even more, one of the best RA films
Best 'between the beats' episode by far. Down to earth guy who's also a seasoned crate digger. Win win!
One of the nicest guys in the industry & a truly sick deejay to match!
This one ended way too soon.. It seemed like 5 minutes.. Fantastic episode.. All the best to Midland, he deserves it..
My favourite DJ by a country mile.
lovely guy, thoughtful & considerate artist, great dj, beautifully filmed. MORE PLEASE.
I fucking love Midland. And I fucking love this documentary.
Edit - just watched it a second time to see if I was too emotional the first time around, but I teared up again when I heard the opening bars of Before We Leave. Ahhh I gotta go back to Fabric!
Love you, cous! Such a legend and incredible talent xx
I'm so glad this got posted; refreshing to see more LGBT+ DJ's in the spotlight.
The best Between The Beats so far.. If only all DJ's had this outlook!
a good dj & producer and a really nice guy as well. This was a Between the Beats to watch a second time (or third)...
This serie "between the beats " is so relevant, keep doing it!
Top 3 I’ve seen live, legend of a producer as well, final credits is crazzzy good
I’ve just run a marathon and now watching this , really helping the recovery 🏃♂️😎 all the best to you midland
Seen him play again this weekend and made me watch this again. Great DJ and even greater human!
Nothing but love for Harry/Midland!
The best Between the Beats to date. Thanks for choosing Midland.
Awesome! I love that we are the kind of people that respect each other and that we are able to feel and understand this Universal Language called MUSIC. 🎶 😍
Amazing documentary and awesome to see Motion Bristol get featured - saw midland in a small club in bristol last month and he was amazing
where did you see him?
He really is one of the greats
20:22 That whole interaction is so adorable. Great video.
shout out Nativ gettin a play with shifty in the backrgound at 15:30
Great documentary and what a great guy
It’s interesting to hear newer DJs talk about genres and what they’re going to mix that night, or what they’re asked to mix by the crowd. Go back 15/20 years, DJs had very defined sounds. On hearing a set you could be pretty confident of identifying who played - Sasha, Paul Oakenfold, PvD, Digweed etc but there’s so much more crossover now and I’d find it so much harder to hear a modern set and confidently know which DJ recorded it.
Best Between The Beats yet
Top DJ, top producer, top bloke
love this guy
Nothing but love for you, Harry. Big up!
When KH - Question dropped it made my 3 incher tingle.
best video of the series so far
fabulous work, RA (and Midland).
Seems like a cool guy. Phenomenal DJ and producer.
my favorite between he beats yet.
Midland is great Dj! But I agree with the topic they discussed. If I went to see Gerd Janson and he only played Techno I would have been disappointed as you expect him to play a melodic set as he always does. Same as if I went to see Prosumer or Laurent Garnier, I would expect some disco and house. Once saw Garnier play Pacha Ibiza and he only played Techno then some months later saw him at Panoramabar and he played super melodic. He even played Donna Summer and Barbra Streisand!
thanks resident advisor for this. quality stuff
cheers for the sick new years eve back in corsica midland!! one of my favourite nights
Midland been smashing it way before Final Credits, play/ produce whatever you like mate, its always FIRE
Love Midland
What a great video. Midland your such a Legend.

Great video would love to see Ben UFO as the next featured artist
This was excellent! He seems like an awesome dude. I didn’t know he was gay, or so close to Ben UFO, that makes me love him even more. Saw him with one of the Bicep boys at almost 6 mins in.. would love a future episode featuring them! ✌🏼
