You know Dirtybird for dropping basslines and creating smiles on the dance floor since January 2005.

The fun family vibe of the Dirtybird label can be traced back to a free event started in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco. This new kind of house music went against the smooth vocal house that was popular at the time and derived its influences mostly from hip-hop, drum n bass, and American funk. The free outdoor BBQ party was very rough around the edges but eventually became legendary amongst the people of San Francisco. This event was also a very influential factor in the decision by Claude VonStroke to start the record label in 2005.

Today, Dirtybird has offices in San Francisco and Los Angeles and has expanded into events and tour production. As it grows, the brand continues to expand beyond music into merchandise, licensing and artist management. In 2015, Dirtybird launched the inaugural Dirtybird Campout festival, which has been dubbed “Summer Camp For Adults”, and Dirtybird has been recognized from their achievements by being awarded "Underground Label of the Year" at the International Dance Music Awards, “Label of the Decade” by Mixmag, “Best North American Label” by DJ Mag, and Billboard’s "Top 5 Independent Dance Labels".

Driven by a passion for the best in bass music, circling around UK Garage, Bassline, Grime, House and everything good in-between, in 2014 #NightBass boss @ACSlater made it his mission to expose North America to these strongly under-represented genres and in doing so, he's established club and record label Night Bass as a wildly successful, internationally renowned institution for ground breaking, forward-thinking dance music that's spearheading an underground movement across the country.

Valentino Khan makes everything.  The Los Angeles-based DJ and producer is an artist whose music truly knows no bounds. From producing hip-hop tracks for Grammy-winning artists to pumping out electronic club anthems at top venues all over the world, he is continuously evolving his unique personal sound. Incorporating elements of house, trap, bass, hardstyle and more. Valentino's music always provides the audience with the unexpected, while remaining full of energy. A heavyweight in his own right, Valentino Khan continues to break barriers with original tracks, production credentials and incredible live sets.

Valentino most recently released his House Party EP on Mad Decent.  The six-track release includes collaborations with Diplo, Chris Lorenzo and Wuki.  It debuted at #1 on the Apple Music Dance charts and has received critical praise across the board.

The world was introduced to Valentino Khan in 2014, when he burst onto the scene with his debut EP "In Khan We Trust" on Skrillex's OWSLA label. After gaining traction with the EP, a year later Khan's original track "Deep Down Low" became an international sensation, earning the title of "Most Played Track Of The Year" and topping Sirius XM's #1 Song of 2015 on Electric Area. Since then, he has earned a reputation as a remix master with official renditions of RL Grime's "Pressure," Alison Wonderland's "Good Enough," Calvin Harris & Dua Lipa’s "One Kiss,” Katy Perry & Nicki Minaj’s “Swish Swish” and more.

Khan has continued his success in the dance world with huge tracks like ”Pump,” “Lick it,” ”Gold" with Sean Paul, "Novocaine" with Kayzo and "Pony" - from his House Party EP.
 
In addition to releasing his own music, Khan has produced tracks for high-profile artists.  Among his notable original productions is "Welcome to the Party" with Diplo, French Montana and Lil Pump; which went RIAA Platinum in the United States.  Valentino has also produced tracks for 2 Chainz, Lil Wayne, Yung Gravy, T.I., Bruno Mars, Tyga, Sean Paul, Dizzee Rascal & many more. His collaborations as a producer further include working with Major Lazer on the RIAA Gold song "Bubble Butt" featuring Bruno Mars & Tyga, which has proven to be a main stage staple for years.

When Khan isn't in the studio, he's relentlessly traveling around the entire globe to perform at some of the world's best festivals and venues. His electrifying stage presence and high-energy sets have earned him a loyal international fanbase that follows him from EDC Las Vegas, where he threw down one of the most talked-about sets of the weekend, to the Lollapalooza festivals in South America 2019.

Both the present and the future are bright for Khan, and he now looks to continue his success in both the dance music and production worlds.

Lover of all things nature, Perfect Driver label-head Matthew Anthony’s aesthetic is a fusion of his passion for drums, upbringing on 90s hip hop and affinity for broken beats. Defining it himself as “house music with extra bass,” his sound pays homage to the past while evolving in the present, nesting perfectly driven basslines with all-around high quality production. Champion the underdog.
