Tonight we had a man who spent many years growing up to the tunes of country music in Texas, he turned to the world of DJing and now he runs with the moniker xR_. His name is Harley Scott and we catch up with him on his travels!

Harley Scott was raised in Singapore for the first 10 years of his life before transitioning to the heart of Texas for another 12 years. While he was in the States, he heard the song Stronger by Kanye West featuring Daft Punk. Harley was so enthralled by the beats and sounds, he began to research all about the DJ lifestyle.

Initially, he wanted to head over for music schools but his mother, a well-sought after hair-stylist from Singapore, nudged Harley into the hairstyling industry. He came back to Malaysia to study hairstyling, got his certification and clocked in the hours needed for him to be a fully fledged hairstylist. Harley admitted that he didn’t want to be a hairstylist. It all came to place as his partner at that time shared the same passion as Harley in forming him to be a DJ.

Harley enrolled to a music school to learn the art of being a DJ and also the production side of things. By 2013, Harley was already out there playing in clubs and bars at Changkat. Frangipani became his first residency slot. Now currently, Harley has a residence in Mr. Brooks, a speakeasy in Bangsar Shopping Center and is planning for a recurring bass night in Bangsar filled with the hard beats of dubstep, trap and techstep.

For the record, Harley scored 8!
