Jauz on Tour
DJ, producer and trend-setting label head Jauz lives by one simple but powerful motto: "Music has no boundaries." Nowhere is that truer than at the man's rowdy concerts, where he whips his thrilling, original bangers, an ocean's worth of remixes and the occasional live collab into a sonic tsunami that swallows up bass house, chill trap, future garage, American dubstep, classic house and a dozen other EDM subgenres. You might even hear a popular children's song if you're lucky (Jauz fittingly remixed Pinkfong's "Baby Shark" in 2019). While plenty of dance music producers are content to stay in their bedrooms or basements churning out the jams, Jauz began touring the minute he had a fandom, selling out his first headlining jaunt, the Friendzy Tour, in 2016, and following that with the hugely popular Off the Deep End tour in 2017, which had him flooding auditoriums and amphitheaters with his bass-heavy sound. And after scoring early support from stars like Diplo and Skrillex, Jauz has been a worldwide festival mainstay, hitting Electric Daisy Carnival, Tomorrowland and Ultra multiple years in a row. He's branched out too, playing promoter by organizing groundbreaking tours for the members of his Bite This collective, and kicking off 2020 with a live "underwater" VR concert.
Jauz in Concert
Sam Vogel grew up in Northern California and started out like so few of his DJing peers: as a kid with a guitar. Around the age of 15 he started making beats on his computer, but it wasn't until he'd started film school in Los Angeles that Vogel realized he wanted a career in audio instead. He dropped out, enrolled in the nearby Icon Collective music production college, and by 2014 was recording remixes of just about anything he could touch: Zeds Dead, Slipknot, Ed Sheeran, Childish Gambino and, yes, even John Williams' original Jaws theme. While those were unauthorized "collaborations," the real ones came about quickly as Jauz's work made the rounds. That same year, he released "Feel the Volume" on Diplo's Mad Decent label and watched as the bass-jacked banger became a staple of sets by very famous DJs. In 2015, he teamed with Skrillex for the Adult Swim Singles series, plus officially remixed Major Lazer's "Lean On" with Dillon Francis, and Duke Dumont's "Need U (100%)" with Marshmello. Jauz appeared on albums by Tiësto and Netsky alike, before founding his own Bite This label in 2017 and dropping his vibrantly eclectic debut LP, The Wise and the Wicked, in 2018. After slightly slowing down in 2019, Jauz rang in the new decade with his Dangerous Waters EP.
