HOT DAD

"He sure is a tall glass of strawberry milk...". "Oh yeah! that's Hot Dad. He's a DJ."

Refined and eclectic house music, with a big smile and good ear for community-first events.

Some can handle the heat, some cannot. House music is on fire, and Hot Dad breathes life into each event. From attending big-room raves in the early years, to cutting his teeth at festivals and international events, Dad landed in Reno, NV to start something something truly special.

A House Music community; driven by shared values and group excellence with a dash of fun. As Co-Founder of the Biggest Little Tribe, Reno’s house-music-loving artist and events collective, Dad continues to put human connection and genuine experiences at the forefront. Whether it’s comprehensive event curation and scheduling, or DJing local venues, festivals, or internationally, Hot Dad brings a big smile with nothing to prove.

Through community, hard work, partnerships, and practice, came exceptional events with eclectic and fresh soundtracks. Most notable of these gatherings is Sunset Electronica. A bi-monthly outdoor/rooftop affair with partner-in-crime, Frank Atrisco; collectively known as ‘Hot Papas’. When the other half isn’t around, Dad’s House fills the void. A theme-specific event, curated to showcase local talent in a cozy atmosphere.

“Well, what kind of music does Dad play?” Underground, obscure, yet refined house and techno, with maximum interest in minimal-house and intelligent sound design.

Keep it fun. Keep it hot. Keep it house.
