Following the release of their collaborative single “Party After Midnight,” internationally acclaimed DJs and producers Matroda and San Pacho are officially launching the next chapter of their AFTER MIDNIGHT project with the arrival of their debut EP, AF:MN, out July 23. Spanning seven tracks, the release captures the duo’s shared vision for forward-thinking house music, blending festival-sized energy with underground club sensibilities.
Opening the EP, “Party After Midnight” sets the tone with a high-octane tech house anthem driven by Matroda’s signature bass-heavy production and San Pacho’s infectious groove-focused style. Built for peak-time dance floors, the track showcases the chemistry that has quickly made the collaborative project one of the most talked-about partnerships in house music.
The momentum continues with “Rich & Handsome,” a fan-favorite that first turned heads during the duo’s live debut at the Do LaB stage during Coachella earlier this year. From there, “Slinging Dope” injects hip-hop influences into an energetic club framework, while “Got a Feeling” shifts gears with a lighter, uplifting groove perfectly suited for the summer festival season.
The second half of the project explores multiple sides of the duo’s sound. “Hat Shades” embraces a darker, more underground aesthetic with gritty textures and driving rhythms, while “Feel Alright” channels the spirit of classic ’90s Ibiza through a modern house lens. Sampling Martha Wash’s iconic “Catch The Light,” the track combines nostalgic vocals with relentless grooves that pay tribute to dance music’s golden era.
Closing the EP, “Part of Me” delivers an uplifting finale, blending polished house production, soaring melodies, and infectious vocal hooks into a festival-ready anthem that highlights the project’s melodic side without sacrificing dancefloor energy.
AFTER MIDNIGHT represents a new creative outlet for Matroda and San Pacho, born from a mutual passion for innovative house music and a commitment to quality over quantity. Rather than pursuing an aggressive release schedule, the duo has positioned the project around carefully curated music and exclusive live performances, allowing each release to make a lasting impact.
Their collaborative debut at Coachella’s Do LaB stage introduced audiences to the project’s vision, where they premiered “Rich & Handsome” to an enthusiastic crowd. Since then, anticipation has continued to build as fans have eagerly awaited the full body of work.
Individually, Matroda and San Pacho have become two of contemporary house music’s most influential artists, collectively amassing hundreds of millions of streams while performing at premier festivals and clubs including Tomorrowland, EDC Las Vegas, and major events throughout Europe and North America.
The release of AF:MN arrives as the duo embarks on a busy summer touring schedule, with performances planned at HARD Summer in Los Angeles, the legendary Club Space in Miami, ARC Music Festival in Chicago, and Day Trip Festival in San Jose.
With AF:MN, Matroda and San Pacho establish AFTER MIDNIGHT as more than a one-off collaboration. Blending expertly crafted production, infectious grooves, and a clear artistic identity, the EP lays a strong foundation for a project poised to make a lasting impact on the global house music scene.
