☕️ cheers to this dope lineup!

get to know the 3 holding it down next friday the 17th

— DOT TRIPLE ZERO —
Playing infectious deep house at Solar Sounds Open Decks, we’re excited to have her heat up the floor.

A purveyor of deep, futuristic, jazzy dance grooves, and a cosmic atmosphere. This is how Toronto raised — Philly based Dot Triple Zero describes herself as a DJ. Never afraid to go deep, she explores the concept of Afro-Futurism through sound. On the dance floor, she explores this notion with a cosmic selection of soulful, jazzy and worldly versions of house music across space and time.

While at her own cafe, Sonic Brew, she also explores this notion with a down tempo set that incorporates jazz, funk, soul, broken beat, hip hop along with found sounds and sample sound bytes from public discussions on imagining the concept of blackness in the future. Her worldly soulful jazz inspired selections are her own therapy.

— URBAN KOWBOI —
Patrick, also known as Urban Kowboi, has called Philly home for the past decade, and has been shaped by its rich, ever-evolving nightlife. In the earlier days of his DJing before 2019, his sets focused primarily on ambient and minimal techno, but in the past few years (as Urban Kowboi) his sets have ventured into House, Techno, Pop edits and much in-between.

— MATPAT —
Releasing on a range of different labels, including Derrick Carter’s Persnickety All Stars, Mat has gained support from djs such as Kerri Chandler (dropping “Everybody Rise” on the Essential Mix), Laurent Garnier, Blessed Madonna, Maya Jane Coles, Fred P, DJ Sprinkles, Jamie Jones, Skream, Lucy, Joris Voorn, & Busy P among others.

Between continuing his 8 year running party CLUB CONGRESS & fronting his label CLUBBY BOY, 2023 is looking to be an exciting year the American producer.

🪭 adding a fun, new element to the show! ✨

really excited to be showcasing some of the dancers, flow artists, and creatives from our pittsburgh & philly communities

here’s a little bit about them:

Kayla also known as TigerLily is a passionate flow artist and harm reductionist who fuses technical and fluid dance and prop skills with intentional musicality and theatrical flair for their performances.

Kat , also known by her stage name Electric Honey, is a multifaceted artist, DJ, and dancer. From performing on the aerial hoop to making a crowd dance from the DJ booth, her love for music and movement shines through in everything she does.

Blanco Rabbit is a multifaceted artist who will be exchanging her dj equipment for her LED hoop for the first time.

Kristi, sometimes known as Krimpii, connects with the ebb and flow of life through the movement of her silk fans, centering herself in the music

Mythra (Lauren) is a multimedia artist + preformer who transmutes energy from force to form.

Alyssa is a creative at heart, a scientist by training, naturalist by intuition, and performer by inspiration.

🔊 more on the lineup 🔊

➡️ Demuir is an artist with a substantial presence in the underground electronic music industry, releasing original music and remixes on major record labels including Hot Creations, Rawthentic, Desolat, Moxy, and his own Purveyor Underground imprint. The pandemic only accelerated Demuir’s musical output on other essential labels including Sn**ch!, Sola, Nauts, and Harry Romero’ s Bambossa label to name a few.

On the touring front, Demuir has been a mainstay at top clubs like Toronto’s Coda, Space Miami, Halcyon in San Francisco, House of Yes in New York, and a regular on Jamie Jones’ Paradise parties to name just a few.

In addition to his extensive touring schedule, Demuir still manages to find time to run his own Purveyor Underground label, which champions the underground music scene with digital and vinyl releases and has hosted the likes of Carlo Lio, Phil Weeks, Farouki, and Valentino, Mark Farina, and Kenny Dope.

Demuir ’s natural talent and drive to create a positive impact through his music and creative projects are nothing less than inspiring.

➡️ Linski has most recently provided support for the one of the newest premier house music talents from the UK: Josh Butler.

➡️ Val has spun for various audiences and played on line-ups with the likes of Green Velvet, Cut Copy, Purple Disco Machine and more.

2021/2022 Thank You!

We started this company now a little over a year ago and we want to say thank you to all the artists, venues, partners and especially our team.

Thank you to all the vendors who also help spread art and provide food at some of our events.

For those of you who have attended any of our events, we want to also say thank you! Without you all, we wouldn’t be able to create these experiences.

And one last thank you to all the hosts that have help build and continue the Cosmic Callings. You all help get the music scene in Philly a space to be seen and spoken for.

With that; we love the community that is being built and we are excited to see what 2023 has in store. Happy New Year from Solar Sounds!

👽Come join us at for another edition of Oblivion, where we delve into underground sounds ft Boo Lean [NYC] + dope local support.
--------------------------------
BOO LEAN - (aka Lauren Goshinski) A trusted ear in more ways than one, she’s known behind the scenes as a founder and curator of festivals and spaces like VIA, New Forms, Hot Mass and her current residencies at Public Records and The Lot Radio. She’s also a board member of Resident Advisor, holding it down for independent scenes in a big way.

A tastemaker of tastemakers. Carving out murky chambers of hyperbaric dub, rollicking mountains of freaky drum play, crystalline pools of vocal hooks and euphoric melody, to all-out bass caverns for your b***y, genre is not really a thing for Boo.
--------------------------------
URBAN KOWBOI - (aka Patrick Urbankowski) A long-time resident of Philly, he has seen & grown with the various evolutions and adaptations of the nightlife & underground scene. With a wide taste & appreciation for the music, you can always count on him for a unique, energetic set.
--------------------------------
NEEDLEFAG - (aka Vicente Zamarripa) You may recognize Vicente as Resident DJ & co-organizer of Lindo, an incredible party series with a focus on techno. With a range of selections & some latin inspiration, it is no doubt that they will take you on a journey of grooves.
