Career

Harris began DJing and producing under the alias flirty800 in the early 2020s, performing regularly at queer clubs and fashion events[8] in New York.

In an Interview Magazine profile, his breakout release, the four-track EP My Mind (2025), was described as angsty nu-gaze for a perfect “slut grunge summer,” combining elements of indie pop, electronica, and emotional catharsis.[7] The EP was praised by Earmilk for its “haunting and honest” songwriting and for “carving his own lane” within contemporary club music.[6] Fucking Young! highlighted the theatrical, high-energy nature of his live sets, recalling moments such as performing at a sex club where “a swing moved to the rhythm of his set.”[7]

In addition to club residencies, Harris has played events connected to New York Fashion Week and nightlife venues such as The Monster, Under the K Bridge, The Moxy, and Basement.[9][10] He often curates playlists and collaborations with other queer artists, reflecting his commitment to inclusive and expressive club culture.[5]
