    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Concrete Husband is a NYC-based producer, DJ, composer, and flutist whose work bridges hypnotic techno, contemporary composition, and surrealist sound design. His forward-thinking dance records Piel and Pelvic Resonance, released on White Owl Records, received critical acclaim, with Document Journal describing his music as “redefining avant-garde composition.” Educated at New England Conservatory, he draws on a deep knowledge of musical history to create emotionally charged sonic narratives that blur the line between the sensual and the uncanny. His DJ sets move through hypnotic grooves and psychological tension. A fixture of the Brooklyn techno scene, he has been seen countless times at BASEMENT, Paragon, and Knockdown Center, as well as at WIRE Festival and Merge. He is a resident of the Mexico City collective Pervert. As a composer and flutist, he merges virtuosic performance with experimental approaches to sound. Integrating live flute into his work, he has developed a singular performance language that led Eartheater to invite him to open her 2024 international tour, alongside a headline debut at Silent Green. His compositions have been presented at Amant, MoMA PS1, Museum of Modern Art, MUNCH, and Palazzo Reale. He has also scored Dion Lee’s Shanghai Fashion Week presentation and contributed flute compositions to the A24 film Beau Is Afraid. Most recently, he released the experimental project "Where The Ashes Glow" on NNA Tapes.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    DREAM stays pushing the boundaries of traditional zeitgeist, crafting stories in sound that change your perception in music with hypnotic mixing and unaplogelic blends. DREAM graces decks and clubs with sets bound to entrance. When he plays, the boundaries between DJ and listener collapse, and the room enters an erotic trance concocted by DREAM. You feel the change on the dance floor the moment he takes command. Weaving and sewing sonic tapestry from tearing bass lines and soaring synths, get ready to dissociate into a DREAM. Hailing from Miami, he touched his first set of CDJ’s. He instantly fell in love with the concept of making people move to high octane rhythms. Crafting electrifying soundscapes that transcend language. As a dreamweaver embracing a diverse spectrum of music, DREAM plays a variety of techno, EDM, ethreal beats, latin groove, electro, disco, eurodance, house, acid, dream trance, & breakbeat. DREAM quickly found success in his hometown, and after an iconic series of mixes, he decided it was time to conquer another one of Dance Music’s Capitals, New York City. Changing his stage name from ‘DREAMINSLOW’ to ‘DREAM‘ during his move, he transitioned and birthed a new persona for himself. From intimate venues to expansive stages, his time in New York has been a nonstop spiral. Even though DREAM left Miami, he hasn’t lost a single bit of the heat that carried him through. Playing his signature blends in the esteemed electronic music institutions of New York, his notoriety has exponentially grown since his arrival there. Having set up an eclectic house of ecstasy here in the United States, he now intends to embark on a journey across nations, to bring his trademark sound to begging ears and fans. DREAM remains committed to pioneering sonic landscapes, continuously redefining possibilities within electronic music.
