Himan Artist Bio

Himan (Julien Lacroix) was born in France in 1985 and is a DJ / Producer of electronic music. Influenced by the French House of the late 90’s and early 00’s that dominated the music scene in France, he is also inspired by disco, funk and eighties culture. At the age of thirteen, Stardust’s release of “Music Sounds Better With You” began his fascination with music styles composed of samples and filtered loops.
In 2010, in collaboration with fellow french electronic artist Fever 105, together they produced the single “I Want You”. This funky house track was released on The Shiny Disco Club’s compilation ‘Millennium Disco’ and features an array of artists including Bitfunk, Xinobi, Louis La Roche and The Phantom’s Revenge. The track attracted the attention and support of industry names including Alan Braxe.
In April 2011, the release of his debut six-track EP ‘Initial’ on the Parisian label Folistar (Digikid84, Mr. Gonzo, DJ Gero), reflects his diverse musical influences. The track titled ‘Donna’ reignites the romantic heat of the eighties and ‘Novalaise’ evoking the nostalgia of fond memories with its chillwave vibes. Tracks ‘Sunset’ and ‘1998’ highlight the French touch of this Frenchy and finally the EP takes a turn to groovy disco with ‘Disco 3000’ and ‘Paris la nuit’. Read more on Last.fm.
