Sweater
Biography
Blending the heart of house with breakbeat surrealism, Sweater likes to sweat. A former assistant at the famed Electric Lady Studios, his productions share his northeast edge with a thoughtful polish. 2022 saw his first 12” record with the Post Play crew sell out quickly on the Small Moves label out of Tbilisi, Georgia with support from the likes of Tini, Anna Wall, S.A.M., Giamarcco Orsini and Janeret.
2023 was filled with even more music with solo releases NYC’s Pearled Records, Chile’s Secret Society, and a Post Play release on Germany’s Novum. Sweater also co-runs the Truly You Audio label out of Philadelphia with friend and frequent collaborator DJ Dre, together producing experimental R&B tinged breakbeat.
As a DJ and vinyl junkie, his quest for gems has led him to become the inventory manager for Impressions Philly, Philadelphia’s only dance music focused record shop. With his jazz piano background, audio engineering roots, and hunger for new music, his sets are non-linear trips around the underground realms. Quick, smooth, thoughtful, and g as all hell, the Philadelphia mainstay is the elected leader of Perspiration Nation. Grab a towel. You’ll need it.
