the love will never fade, for house music is in my soul
HCR is building a family and a movement. We strive to create a label that embodies community, comradery, inclusion, and bold exploration. Everything we’re about goes back to safe spaces. We want to allow for talent gardening and growth for all generations, and collaboration with like-minded individuals and crews.
We cannot do community without all of you! As such, we look for opportunities to learn and share knowledge. We do not want to live on an island, operating in a bubble.
We also value analog and vinyl talent. We embrace new technologies that drive the House Music genre forward, while also respecting the roots and history of how we got here.
Do you want to be a top-notch selector and DJ? We have your back.
At HCR, we believe knowledge-sharing is one of the major components at the core of building a strong community. Therefore, we offer different levels of training for new, mid-level, or experienced DJs.
Our physical studio is based in Seattle, making it convenient for students in and around the city
For those who have their own equipment, we're happy to make home visits to provide personalized training.
If you're located outside of Seattle, don't worry! We offer remote learning options:
+ Live Zoom meetings for interactive sessions.
