Canadian producer Jason Hersco brings a unique sophistication to dance music,
employing jazz and funk samples and arrangements to carve out a niche
between deep house, tech house, and lo-fi house genres.

Montreal-born but now based in Toronto, Hersco first displayed his musical
talents as a guitarist. His transformation into electronic music producer began as
a result of house parties he and his roommate would throw while attending
college. "There's this kind of energy when you're DJ'ing a good set that brings
everyone together," he recalls. "It's a great feeling." Learning how to use Ableton
and attending EDM shows at Montreal's iconic New City Gas sealed the deal.

While he first started releasing his own works independently in 2020, Hersco has
since released tracks on more than 20 labels, including Bass Box, Apparel
Music, Moment Cinetique, Play Records, and 4Eons. His 2022 release Mind,
Body & Soul was his first collaboration with fellow deep house maestro Travis
Emmons, who Hersco also counts as a mentor. "I learn something new every
time I work with him," he says. That same year, Hersco also saw the title track
from his Everytime EP rack up hundreds of thousands of streams on Spotify
alone.
