The Dare

There’s one artist in particular who is determined to bring the
early 2000s era bloghouse aesthetic back, and it’s Brooklyn-based
Harrison Patrick Smith of The Dare, our guest on Date with the
Night episode 9. We discuss The Dare’s recent single Girls, and
dig into Harrison’s song writing process. Harrison unpacks what
he loves about the early 2000s bloghouse and electroclash sound,
and talks about his inspirations from the era including Peaches,
LCD Soundsystem, DFA Records, The Rapture, the Maison Kitsuné
compilations, and more. We also discuss the current state of the
underground scene in New York, as well as Harrison’s DJ residency
at Home Sweet Home - the filming location for the Girls music
video, directed by Jacob Lazovick.
