Jeremy Olander is not your average electronic music artist. He stands tall with a rugged demeanor, ponytail gathered behind his head as to not disrupt him during his carefully crafted DJ sets. Under his real name he produces an authentic brand of progressive house, releasing numerous hits on Pryda Friends. Under his Dhillon techno moniker, he’s already cemented releases on Adam Beyer’s acclaimed Drumcode. On Saturday night, while thousands descended upon Miami for Ultra Music Festival and its surrounding parties, a saddened group of non-attendees found their audible fix during Olander’s set at New York nightclub Santos Party House.

Last Saturday at Santos Party House, the Electric Beach party brand brought together two of dance music’s most buzzed about stars. Pierce Fulton and Audien, who barely look old enough to step foot in a nightclub, were bound to provide a stellar soundtrack for their adoring fans. On my way to Santos, whilst perusing through my Twitter feed, I noticed Pierce mentioned this would be his first ever back-to-back set. Both of these artists have genre-bending styles and don’t particularly subscribe to labels in the traditional sense, so in that regard I was anxious to see what the night would hold. Would Audien play euphoric trance or gritty electro? Would Pierce bust out some deep house? Maybe even something experimental? (more…)

Electric Beach — Santos Party House’s Saturday night event — celebrated its first birthday last weekend with a party fit for the milestone. The clubs weekly dance music event has seen talent like EDX, Funkagenda, and New York local dBerrie, but appropriately pulled out their biggest guns yet for the occasion — Mat Zo. Serving as the evenings musical officiator, he successfully captured the audience with a diverse set of classic tunes, current hits, and unidentifiable tracks. The set flowed, but without feeling weighed down by a boring formula. While there wasn’t a real cake, attendees ate up his set with the enthusiasm of first graders devouring frosted carbs. Z0 however, was more forgiving on the waistline.

Mat Zo is making his New York nightclub debut next Saturday, October 6th, at Santos Party House. The party is a one year celebration of the Electric Beach Party at Santos, and will be a nice departure from the typical progressive stylings of the club. We’ve seen artists like Tristan Garner and Pierce Fulton there in the past. If you’re unfamiliar with Mat Zo, his upbeat fusion of trance and house is similar to Arty’s, and he has found a home on Above and Beyond’s Anjunabeats label. Tickets for the event are on sale now, and it is expected to sell out. Keep reading for one of our favorite Mat Zo mashups.
