Toshiya Kawasaki / KZA / MARO

Toshiya Kawasaki will be back at ESP July 4th, 2026 with lengendary Tokyo based Japanese DJ and producer KZA.

Toshiya Kawasaki, founder of Mule Musiq, is celebrated for his eclectic, genre-blending DJ sets rooted in electronic and experimental music. His selections often feature innovative artists and rare global tracks, creating a sophisticated and immersive atmosphere ideal for both dancing and deep listening. Kawasaki's DJ sets are characterized by subtle transitions and a refined sense of musical storytelling at clubs and festivals alike.

KZA Known as one-half of the nu-disco/house duo "force of nature", kza is a prominent figure in the underground disco and dance scene, recognized for obscure records, acid house and cosmic disco. His music often features deep, unhurried grooves, blending obscure vinyl samples with cosmic disco, jazz-funk, and early chicago house influences.

MARO Filipina-Irish DJ and producer MARO, born in Yokosuka, Japan and now based in Denver, has spent three years carving out a distinct corner of North America’s house and techno circuit. Her sound moves between dark, tension-driven grit and flirty moments of release and surprise, always movement-forward and built around bodies and breath. Infusing her craft is her philosophy that the body is the ultimate wisdom keeper, that play is sacred, and that reverence and irreverence are two sides of the same coin. With her 2026 tour spanning Austria, Vail, Denver, Costa Rica and Boise, and her first original productions arriving this year, MARO is solidifying her place as one of the scene’s most intentional new voices.
