Justin Martin
As the late Oscar Wilde once said:
“Life is too important to be taken seriously.”
It's an ethos that Justin Martin has embodied throughout a career spanning more than two decades as a producer and touring DJ.
Justin first captured attention in 2003 with his debut record, The Sad Piano, released on Buzzin' Fly. Since then, he has become one of electronic music's most beloved and distinctive artists, known for blending emotional depth with undeniable dancefloor energy.
After a lengthy career as a founding member of Dirtybird, Justin launched his own imprint, What To Do, in 2020 as a home for his signature sound. In 2024, he expanded the label into a platform dedicated to supporting and releasing music from emerging artists. Beyond the label, he continues to strengthen the Bay Area music community through his growing What To Do event series.
Often described as both melodic and tough, Justin's music balances heartfelt storytelling with raw groove-driven power. Constantly evolving as an artist, he continues to push his sound into new territory, delivering what he calls:
“Music with emotional depth and raw dancefloor grit.”

DEF 3
DEF3 is a Western Canadian award-winning electronic hip-hop Emcee, producer and DJ, redefining how live vocals, electronic music, and rap energy collide on festival stages. With 12M+ streams across all platforms, he’s known for bass-driven, high-voltage sets where songwriting, performance, and production operate as one force.
His catalogue includes collaborations with leading electronic artists such as Dr. Fresch, Mr. Bill, Late Night Radio, SoDown, Wonky Willa, Krafty Kuts, Amp Live (Zion I), The Funk Hunters, Defunk, and many more, alongside releases on respected EDM labels including Monstercat, Wakaan, Housecall, Lowtemp, LSDREAM’s Trippy Bee, Finger Lickin’, and Westwood Recordings.
He’s also earned major respect in the hip-hop world, collaborating with underground heavyweights like Del The Funky Homosapien and Masta Ace, and sharing stages with Nas, The Roots, Wu-Tang Clan, Big Boi, Flatbush Zombies, Hilltop Hoods, House of Pain, Salt-N-Pepa, and cross-genre icons like Post Malone and Nelly.
His sound blends the storytelling and emotional depth of hip hop with the weight, tension, and release of bass music — moving crowds physically while landing on a human level. Beneath the low-end power is a clear intent: to leave people lighter, more open, and fully charged.
In a landscape where rap and electronic culture often feel worlds apart, DEF3 stands at the intersection. Treating the mic, decks, and production as a single instrument, he’s carving out a lane for vocal-led electronic music and inviting crowds directly into his world.
He is currently focused on expanding collaborations with electronic artists — actively blending scenes and pushing the boundaries of rap-meets-electronic music through new joint releases and live integrations.
