The Sponges
Get ready planet Earth, The Sponges are back from Funktopia and they brought the party. Formed from the collective minds of Ryan Slepin and Nik Eaton, The Sponges guarantee to have girls and guys alike groovin' on the dancefloor. The South Florida based production duo began as great friends connecting through their passion for music, and teamed up to deliver psychedelic dance music across the nation. The Sponges signature sound fuses 70's funk, heavy bass, and nostalgic sample chops with a classic four on the floor rhythm. Support and praise quickly arose from several renowned artists in the house music scene such as Ardalan, Taiki Nulight, Back2Black, Movenchy, Haechi, Sonny Banks, and Aylen. The Sponges released their first official track, "Make It Juicy!" on Box Of Cats, a label founded by the dominant collective of Wongo, JeffDoubleu, Jak Z, Kyle Watson, Tom EQ and Marc Spence. The duo continue to evolve their sound into the 2020s, branching out of the house scene and into their own "funky electronica" style with influences from artists such as Tipper, Daft Punk, Earth, Wind & Fire, and many more.
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.
