-The Sponges-

From the deepest and darkest soul-snatching pits of the inescapable swampy hellscape known as Florida, arose an unlikely glimmer of light... The Sponges. Blending classic scrunchy-faced funk with next level bass house production, The Sponges have carved their own lane in electronic music. Having gained support from artists such as GRiZ, Zeds Dead, Tchami, AC Slater, The Floozies, Manic Focus and Jauz, it’s
clear that their infectious sound is the perfect addition to peak party hours.

Due to their deep-rooted love for hippie fests and nightclub debauchery, the duo’s mission has always been to blend sounds, bend bodies, and deliver the most fun and energetic listening experiences to audiences everywhere. After FIVE #1 records on Beatport, The Sponges are well on their way to establishing themselves as one of the greatest acts to ever grace the sonic wasteland known as the electronic music
industry. Prepare your playlists for the dukes of disco, the future of funk, the lords of the low-end, the czars of certified bangers, the emperors of ecstasy, the rulers of the rave, the bassline bastards, and the gods of groove as they gear up for an explosive year in 2024!

-N2N-
Over the last ten years, N2N has become broadly recognized for his blistering marathon sets fueled by infectiously joyful house music. In 2018, he was mentioned by Billboard in its list of the nine best sets from Burning Man, as his yearly sunrise performance has garnered a cult-like following. A lifelong student of music, his sets seamlessly blending genres have become crowd favorites across the country. In the studio, his versatility shines through, as his quirky feel-good style has landed him major label signings as well as support from who’s who in the industry, including Fatboy Slim, Nicole Moudaber, David Guetta, and Idris Elba. Undeniably authentic, joyful, and enigmatic, N2N is an act poised for a major 2025. Beyond the decks, Nick has become an outspoken advocate for mental health. He hopes to use his platform to break down the stigma associated with depression and encourage others in similar situations to speak freely in a time heavily dictated by external appearance. In his spare time, you’ll find him tending to his gargantuan plant collection or whispering sweet nothings to his cats Bucket & Shoe.
