About Harald Revery - Biography & FAQ

Music that can be played sunset to sunset

Harald Revery is a contemporary electronic music producer based in Sweden. In an era of digital slop and cheap sample packs, Harald draws inspiration from the natural world, incorporating field-recorded elements ranging from nocturnal forest ambiences to the raw beauty of the world's landscapes. The haunting sounds of the forest at night to the winds at the highest mountain peaks of Scandinavia, Harald is there to capture those moments. His dedication for making music that can ignite that special spark within people is well known for the ones around him. He brings the raw spirit of Europe's nature into his productions for the world to experience.

With a decade of experience crafting tracks for the dancefloor, Harald knows how to get the rave experience anywhere — whether they are in a dimly lit basement bar or at a major festival. His music always hits home for those who hear it.

The letter "H" is taken from the first letter of his birth name, Harald. The split in the upper-left branch of the "H" is a highly abstracted representation of a boat's sails. It reflects Harald’s philosophy on life: you cannot go against the wind, but you can steer and move with it. Just as one cannot go against nature, only design and make choices around it.

"Revery" means "daydreamer" ("dagdrömmare" in Swedish), a recurrent name recalled by teachers in his youth. When it came to pick something to release music with, it kind of fit the EDM genre.

Frequently Asked Questions

Honestly, just telling someone about my music; share it!

Yes! I think that the visual graphics for a track reflects the effort of the song itself. I made the song hence I should do the cover art, it’s truly my art. I even made a font (the one you see on this website) to match the logo that I use for everything related to this project.

If I have time and can travel to said location, then yes!

The contact page has the information about that.

Main setup is Yamaha HS7 with Native Instruments Komplete Audio 6 and a Hitachi AX-M76E system for reference listening. I have a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 for another set of HS7 when not in my studio at home. For field-recordings I use Zoom H8.
For software; FL Studio is my main DAW (unfortunately). For synths I use Harmor (built into FL Studio), Native Instruments Rounds, Xfer Serum, Surge, Odin 2 and Arminator2 (got a softspot for jankware). For making kicks I use Sonic Academy Kick 2, but I also use Geonkick. My go to equalizer is ReaPlugs ReaEQ, since I just want good performance and no delays with routing automation, it just works. For LFO volume stuff I use Gross Beat or TiagoLr GATE-12. For reverb I use ValhallaSupermassive if I want to save CPU or Native Instruments Raum if I want to be fancy. For delay effects I just use the Fruity Delay 3.

My parents pushed me to play the guitar, but I never put any effort into it, then I switched over to the piano instead thinking it would be better; nope! I lost interest fast and my parent’s money was wasted there too. That’s my only “musical background“ I guess. Ironically when I was 15 and I stopped taking piano lessons that’s when I started learning music production on my own. My educational background is physics, I hold bachelor's degree in engineering physics.

For live streaming my music; a quick mention of the track is appreciated. For internet content (such as content in TikTok, Youtube, Facebook formats) I’m fine with just you providing a link in the description/post (of said content) to my social media profiles (instagram and/or soundloud) if you use one of my songs. If it’s for film or TV; contact me about it.
