AC Slater

Support from K3ONI, Cea, Not.me

Remember the rush of your first rave? That initial collision of serotonin, sound and surrender is the high you’ve been chasing since your feet hit the dancefloor. Can we reach nirvana again?

AC Slater holds the key. With an ever-evolving elixir of high-energy house music, the Los Angeles producer rewrites the rules of modern club culture. In forward-thinking spaces where audiophiles and newcomers reach euphoric heights, the bold hitmaker builds a reality where music is all that matters — where every rhythm rips like new.

His signature Night Bass brand and pioneering imprint of the same name flipped the script in the 2010s, ushering in a wave of disrupting parties and takeovers rooted in a music-first mission to elevate emerging talent with household names like Chris Lorenzo, MPH, Sammy Virji and Taiki Nulight appearing among its early trailblazing roster. Via these community-focused experiences, AC Slater continues to introduce revelers to the rich textures of the UK underground through a singular lens of heavy-house grooves that dominate nightlife landscapes and festivals worldwide.

The name behind stream-crushing singles and a trio of critically lauded LPs — Outsiders, Hi8 and Together — AC Slater’s solo sonic identity indeed rings limitless. This ingenuity defines every set he delivers, whether turning up the heat at an off-the-radar afters, or during a top-billed performance at Coachella where he’s played both the Yuma and Sahara tents.

A sought after creative partner as well, the California-based creative holds high-profile collaborative projects alongside tastemakers like Tchami, with whom he’s hit the road on numerous Confession vs. Night Bass national label tours. Fly With Us, which began as a buoyant four-to-the-floor anthem with the aforementioned Chris Lorenzo, has since transformed into a two-man live act that’s soared from EDC Las Vegas’s main stage to LA’s Shrine Auditorium, with boutique faves like Elements Arts & Music Festival hosting the all-star duo, too.

Recent runs across Australia and the European circuit with stops at London’s Ministry of Sound, ParookaVille, Bootshaus and Boomtown Festival similarly cement AC Slater’s international appeal, as he awakens ravers the world over to a feeling of pure connection. Driven by an insatiable taste for adventure, he’s spawned a global subculture that craves the unknown, united by the defiant pulse of UKG-influenced house beats.

Wearing many caps, AC Slater is the body-moving antidote to the mainstream malaise. Counteragent to a culture that’s lost its way in a sea of content, the west coast titan takes fans back to that pivotal moment when they fell in love with the rave — delivering an explosive rush every time he hits play.
