Jason Kushy has released his latest tech house project, Side Effects, arriving November 6, 2026, through OMNIX Recordsunder exclusive license to Universal Music Ltda.

Stream Side Effects on Spotify.

The two-track EP features “No Distractions” and “Veneno,” pairing dance-floor energy with melodic accessibility and the crowd-focused instincts Kushy has developed through more than a decade as a DJ. The release continues an evolving musical story rooted in live performance, personal connection and music designed to stay with listeners beyond the club.

Based in Monterey, California, and raised in Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley, Kushy began teaching himself to DJ at around 11 years old with an $80 mixer in his parents’ basement. By eighth grade, he had started his own DJ business, later performing at weddings, proms and parties. Those early experiences helped him learn how to read a room and understand the energy of an audience long before he began releasing original productions.

Kushy launched his original release catalog in 2025 and has since surpassed one million Spotify streams, more than 120,000 monthly listeners and over 450,000 unique listeners during the past 12 months. His Keep It Moving EP on Direct Action Records peaked at No. 18 on Beatport’s Tech House Top 100 Releases chart.

His music has received support from Louis The Child, SIDEPIECE, Jauz, Wolfgang Gartner, Bingo Players and San Holo, while Dim Mak, Insomniac Records, Barong Family and Space Yacht have also shared repost support.

Alongside original tracks including “Gave It My All,” “I’m Okay” and “Close the Door,” Kushy has released remixes of Fleetwood Mac, Pet Shop Boys, Hall & Oates, Natasha Bedingfield and Sean Paul.

Through Stay Kushy, he combines music, minimalist artwork, exclusive edits and custom visuals inspired by games, animation and pop culture.
