George Denver & Harrison Baker, better known as IN PARALLEL, are two students of the dancefloor. Influenced by sweat-dripping festival dance tents and iconic compilation CDs from the likes of Ministry of Sound and Hedkandi, IN PARALLEL is the result of two bubbling producers coming together to produce a new era of nostalgia-tinged club music.

George has been making noise in the dance music scene for the last 4 years, after finding a love for drum and bass. Initially influenced by artists such as Sigma and Kanine, it was only after discovering artists such as Sammy Virji, Oppidan and MPH that George was swept up by the new UK garage revolution. Harrison plays guitar, piano, and violin, but nothing satisfied him as much as digging into his parents’ collection of classic dance vinyl. Going to university in Manchester fuelled him to take production and DJing seriously, setting up his own record label Pure Filth, and releasing music under the name Baika.

Together, IN PARALLEL have combined their passions to break new ground as a duo, willing their signature sound into taking over dance floors the world over.
