‘This S–t Is Not Normal’: Backstage With Mau P at Coachella


‘Drugs’, Red Rocks, Solomun and saxophones — this is life through the eyes of 28-year-old producer.

He’s got the de facto DJ entourage — agent, manager, content team — in tow, and after they locate his trailer in the artist compound, the Dutch producer sits on a couch outside it and smokes a cigarette, an ostensible moment of repose amid the chaos. Altogether, his approach has earned his catalog 463.6 million official on-demand global streams (through May 22), along with increasingly bigger shows that include upcoming festival bookings like Lollapalooza, Miami’s III Points, San Francisco’s Portola, his Pacha Ibiza residency and a host of European events. In November, he’ll play Colorado’s Red Rocks — a rite of passage for rising dance artists — and yesterday (May 27) he announced a headlining show at the Los Angeles State Historic Park, a venue reserved for only the biggest name DJs.
