MUSIC FOR THIS EVENT PROUDLY PRESENTED BY:
🎶 FEATURING HEADLINER:
🔊 RETURN OF THE JADED
Tech house, indie house and melodic techno.
The Canadian producer, DJ (hailing from Ottawa, CA) and badman known as Return of the Jaded (Zoltan Kontes) offers house music synonymous with superior sound quality, history, nostalgia, and cheeky rave culture. He is fueled by the desire to offer fresh alternatives to electronic music trends and has made a lasting impression upon superstars, tastemakers, and underground aficionados alike. His originals have charted Number 1 on Beatport over 10 times, with signature appearances on labels such as Purified, Techne, Repopulate Mars, Spinnin’ Deep, Sink or Swim, and many more. In 2023, Zoltan made a bold move by introducing his very own record label, Jaded Recordings. With an impressive catalog of productions that had already earned unwavering support from esteemed DJs, the launch of his imprint was a testament to his artistic vision and growing influence within the music industry. The return of this enigmatic artist is a constant reminder that true artistry lies not in the limelight, but in the power to move bodies and souls through sound and rhythm.
