ORPHEUS is a boundary-pushing DJ / beatmaker whose eclectic blend of deep house, hip-hop, and club music has made waves across the dancefloors of Miami and beyond. Originally from Washington, D.C., and now based in Miami, ORPHEUS brings a unique fusion of East Coast grit, soulful vibes, and Miami’s infectious energy to every performance.

From a young age, ORPHEUS was exposed to a rich musical landscape that ranged from Go-Go to Gospel, but it was the pulsating rhythms and bounce of club music that truly captured his imagination. His love for the underground dance scene, combined with an early obsession with the catalogue of Prince, laid the foundation for a sound that blends funky, groove-driven beats with a relentless commitment to moving the crowd. Prince’s revolutionary approach to rhythm, melody, and performance resonates deeply in ORPHEUS sets — which aspire to be always eclectic, always bold, and always unapologetically unique.

Having finished college through the global pandemic and relocated to Miami, a city famed for its vibrant nightlife and legendary music culture, ORPHEUS quickly immersed themselves in the local scene. The influence of Miami’s rich history in Latin, soul, and electronic music has played a significant role in shaping his sound, but it is his love of classic club anthems and underground gems that gives his sets a distinct flavor. Whether behind the decks or in the studio, ORPHEUS pulls from an endless library of inspirations — from 80s funk and soul to Texas screw music, modern house, Footwork, and techno — creating a sonic palette that’s both timeless and forward-thinking.
