Blige, and Foals.[4] In 2017, he worked with songwriter/producer Jarrah McCleary (Panama).[5]

Music career

Since 2002, Schwarz has worked on over 100 musical projects,[6] and in 2006, he mixed the compilation album DJ-Kicks: Henrik Schwarz. In 2007, he released Henrik Schwarz Live, which documented his shift from DJing to being a live laptop performer.[6] Schwarz has partnered with !K7 to launch a new label, Between Buttons.
