All Good

Lisbon-based and US-raised, M. Vaughan has spent the past decade crafting emotional electronic music. His productions fuse warped synthesizers, catchy melodies, and raw percussion into a fresh take on house music, grabbing the attention of tastemakers like Laurent Garnier, Palms Trax, The Blessed Madonna, and Axel Boman. His sets are filled with a sense of adventure formed in dingy underground clubs of Brooklyn, having held residencies as Bossa Nova Civic Club and Jupiter Disco. As a selector he jumps from house to breaks and techno without losing the thread. With a few EPs lined up on the label and a new party Aliás formed with friends, it looks like he’s set to bring the warm, heartfelt house music of New York to the Portuguese capital and beyond.

M. Vaughan, residente em Lisboa e nascido nos EUA, passou a última década criando música eletrônica emocional. Suas produções fundem sintetizadores distorcidos, melodias cativantes e percussão crua em uma nova abordagem da house music, chamando a atenção de formadores de opinião como Laurent Garnier, Palms Trax, The Blessed Madonna e Axel Boman. Seus sets são repletos de um senso de aventura formado em clubes undergrounds do Brooklyn, tendo realizado residências como Bossa Nova Civic Club e Jupiter Disco. Como seletor, ele transita entre house, breaks e techno sem perder o fio da meada. Com alguns EPs na label e uma nova festa Aliás formada com amigos, ele está pronto pra trazer a house music calorosa e sincera de Nova York para a capital portuguesa e além.

M. Vaughan - 1/4 na Veneno #62 (Live at Bones Records)

Cold Read

M. Vaughan is a US native, a Virginia DC born who went to New York and lately traded lakeside views for a new life across the pond. 

Brooklyn, the Bronx, Queens, and Staten (from the Battery to the top of Manhattan) gave way to Alfama, Amoreiras, Chelas, and Mouraria, stretching from Belém to the top of Olivais. African, Brazilian, Goan, and Ukrainian influences—all converge in Lisbon!

Michael has released music on his own Super Tuff Records and has a knack for deep, highly engaging grooves filled with introspection and depth. These traits are especially evident in his Percebes debut, Hei-de Ter (a name of his own choosing, which translates to "I Shall Have").

Hei-de Ter is a binomial release, comprising "Bolota Perdida" and"Dar a Volta." 

The first track is a mid-tempo, Balearic deep house exploration marked by subtlety and sensitivity. It samples a beloved Portuguese fado song, placing it within a carefully crafted, almost maternal environment that balances yearning and desire."Dar a Volta," on the other hand, provides a wonderful counterpoint, offering a laid-back breakbeat moment reminiscent of classic Mo’Wax or G-Stone material.Taken together, the two tracks present an idealized, romantic vision of Lisbon—one that’s increasingly difficult to find amidst the growing dominance of tourism and hospitality industries.With Hei-de Ter, Mike fully embraces his role as a local DJ and producer, establishing himself as a true Lisbon soul boy. This release is sure to shine at deeper gigs and on radio alike.

A wonderful taste of Brooklyn boy @mvaughanmusic's upcoming 'True Life' album, 'Softly' encapsulates much of what the album stands for with its romantic mood and warm textures. Reversed pianos chords rub up against soft key twinkles and a classic jazz-funk drum break sped up to a peppy tempo. Beautiful, wintery stuff.

Brooklyn-based producer M.Vaughan has spent the better part of a decade crafting emotional electronic music.

His productions on labels like Freerange, Monologues, and his own Super Tuff merge warped synthesizers, simple melodies, and raw percussion into a fresh take on dance music, catching the attention of tastemakers like Laurent Garnier, Jimpster and Axel Boman.

His debut album, True Life, which lands on Super Tuff on February 5th , explores every genre from ambient to house and breaks with impressive cohesion. Taking its name from a phrase Vaughan and his older brother coined in their grade school years, meaning “I swear,” True Life is a ten-track diary told through synthesizers, samples, and drum machines.

The album naturally separates itself into two parts—a warm, organic opening and a cold, electronic close. “Softly” perfectly encapsulates the coziness of the album’s first half. Composed of delicate piano, dusty drum breaks, and layers of live guitar, the tune builds from a simple beat into a triumphantly melancholic anthem, reminiscent of Amygdala-era DJ Koze.

On the opposite end, “Timshel” is the hard-nosed standout of the back half. Inspired by a night at Berlin’s Griessmühle, the track’s foundation rests on an electro drum pattern, providing a mechanical backdrop as a synth stab rises ominously into the foreground.

With no 4/4 kick in sight, an overdriven breakbeat arrives two minutes in, launching the tune into the stratosphere leaving the listener in a dizzying headspin with an aftertaste similar to Shed or Photek.
