Nick and Matt are resident DJs for Kosmetik, a weekly queer dance music event held at The Stud in the SoMa district of San Francisco. It can be difficult to categorize Matthew Paul in a specific genre; Matt plays anything from EBM to breakbeat. However, a commonality among his selections is hypnotic grooves, driving rhythms, and psychedelia.  

Nick Moss is a California born and based DJ from San Francisco. In recent years, his affinity for music and involvement in queer underground nightlife opened up the opportunity for him to begin sharing his sound on the stages of some of San Francisco’s favorite underground dance music venues.
