Peter Harris (born 1961), popularly known as Blu Peter,[1] is a British electronic dance music record producer and disc jockey from South Wales, who pioneered the nu-NRG music genre in the late 1990s.[2] In the early 1990s he served as resident DJ at major London nightclubs Heaven and Turnmills. He has performed at raves and nightclubs around the world.[2]

After establishing his DJ career, Harris began producing original music as Blu Peter. He released dozens of 12-inch singles, CD singles, and remixes, many through React Music Limited of London.[3] In 1999 he released his first full-length studio album, Widescreen & Digital.

Harris also partnered with Kevin White to form a production duo called Elevator; together they co-produced numerous singles and EPs from 1994 through the early 2000s.
