Wiffabout 20 years of track selection and a-mixin and a-matchin and whatnot tucked under his shiny belt, this maestro has built a tangy patina of commanding bass lines and sultry sodder on top of lyrical licks and rhyme scheme fodder.   Sometimes refined and rehearsed, consistently live; shaking and baking a salty, crispy, and deep-dripping thunder-clap-tracks that make you decide to skip that line at the bar and the bathroom because Oooooooh    I need to go dance to that right there. Somebody seems to be tucking in a couple chunky soundin soulful squirt house beats on the dance floor. 

This talented selector knows how to rustle rumps and make those shoes shake like never before.   Lace Up.  Hydrate.

Nicholas “Pumpkin” Alvarado is your new favorite music producer/DJ. His spot-on song selections, special remixes and original productions have made for unforgettable live sets that seamlessly span every genre and eschew the latest trends in favor of timeless melodies that will leave a ginormous smile plastered across your face.

Whether starting the party or closing it down, Pumpkin’s inspired mixes are always lovingly sequenced and aim to set the perfect mood. He’s played alongside fellow acclaimed house music mainstays like Lee Burridge, Justin Martin, Nick Warren and KCRW’s Jeremy Sole as well as progressive electronic music pioneers like Bluetech, Blockhead, EOTO and The Glitch Mob. Pumpkin has become an in-demand, fan-favorite at major music festivals like Coachella, Lightning in a Bottle and Sea of Dreams, where he closed the event after his musical hero, Trentemoller. Pumpkin’s acclaimed debut EP, “Love Letters,” featured collaborations with singer Katie Mowgli of the breakout band, The Mowglis and lyricist, EVeryman along with his sought after remixes from the likes of Florence + The Machine and Lila Rose.

He’s been part of the esteemed Pocket Underground family since 2006, when after playing in rock bands all his life, he found a new passion in the hypnotic rhythms of deep house music. Pumpkin honed his now signature sound by daring to incorporate the singer-songwriter, punk rock ethos and childhood nostalgia of his past, with the futuristic sounds of the present.

In everything he touches, Pumpkin’s colorful personality shines through and he loves nothing more than to have fun with his audience as his remixes for the likes Peter Gabriel, David Bowie and The Muppets will attest to. But whether you catch Pumpkin playing at a massive festival, packed club, underground warehouse party or a special sunrise set, you’ll never have more fun on a danceloor. Simply put, this is music to fall in love to.

Anton Tumas moves through the worlds of DJing, promotion, production, and label curation with quiet precision. For well over a decade, his work has been grounded in a deep respect for electronic music’s craft and culture, leaving a lasting mark without the need for fanfare.

From LA’s underground clubs to desert gatherings like Moontribe and Burning Man, and festivals including Lightning in a Bottle, Further Future, and Woogie Weekend, Anton has shared the stage with artists such as Hernán Cattáneo, DJ Tennis, and Danny Howells. His selections traverse the edges of house, techno, and electronica—guided by an ear for the forward-thinking and timeless.

As a promoter, he’s built experiences that speak for themselves. His Subtract On The Pier residency has transformed Long Beach into a destination for world-class talent, hosting everyone from Doc Martin and Lee Burridge to Patrice Bäumel and Mathew Jonson. As producer of the Love Long Beach Festival, he curates with precision and vision, drawing over 10,000 people each year.

Subtract, the record label he founded, reflects the same philosophy: releasing only when the music demands it. Each record is chosen with care, featuring artists from emerging voices to veterans like John Digweed, Stimming, and Matthew Dekay. The label’s consistency speaks to Anton’s uncompromising standard for quality.

In recent years, he’s brought that same discipline to his own productions. His music has appeared on All Day I Dream, Sudbeat, Balance, Endless, Sol Selectas, and his own Subtract imprint, including collaborations with Hernán Cattáneo, Dave DK, and Jamie Stevens. Patient and exacting, his work carries the same refined sensibility that defines his DJ sets and events.

For Anton, the work is never finished. In his own words: “We’re in an ever-evolving landscape, inventing it as we go. One thing is certain: We're only getting started"
