For fans who have followed his meteoric rise over the last few years, this is the moment they’ve been waiting for. Here is everything you need to know about the man who is currently redefining the house and techno landscape.

he Road to the Top: Hits & Highlights

Mau P (Maurits Westveen) didn’t just join the scene; he conquered it. After a successful stint in the EDM world as Maurice West, he reinvented himself in 2022 with a sound that was grittier, darker, and undeniably infectious.

  • “Drugs From Amsterdam” (2022): The track that started it all. It became a global anthem, racking up over 200 million streams and winning “Song of the Year” at the Electronic Dance Music Awards.
  • “Metro” (2023): A collaboration with Kevin de Vries that dominated the summer, becoming the most played track at Tomorrowland 2023.
  • “Gimme That Bounce” & “Dress Code”: These tracks solidified his “Baddest Behaviour” brand—high-energy tech house with a minimalist, underground edge.
  • “The Less I Know The Better” (2025): His brilliant reimagining of the Tame Impala classic showed his range, blending indie-pop nostalgia with mainstage power.

Fashion Forward: The Style of Mau P

Mau P’s influence isn’t limited to the DJ booth. He has become a style icon in the underground scene, often seen blending high-end streetwear with a “raw” industrial aesthetic. His fashion style is characterized by:

  • Monochromatic Vibes: Deep blacks, crisp whites, and oversized silhouettes.
  • The “Dress Code”: Much like his hit track of the same name, his style challenges traditional norms—mixing luxury labels with rave essentials like leather jackets and custom graphic tees.
  • Accessories: From “TROPHY by Gassan” jewelry to his signature eyewear, every look is curated to match the energy of his music.

The upcoming clothing line is expected to mirror this aesthetic—giving fans a chance to wear the “Baddest Behaviour” lifestyle.

Global Events & Iconic Performances

Whether it’s a marathon 4-hour set at Brooklyn Storehouse or a mainstage takeover at Coachella, Mau P has proven he can handle any crowd.

  • Residencies: He is a staple at Wynn Las Vegas (XS and Encore Beach Club), bringing the underground sound to the heart of the Strip.
  • Festival Dominance: From EDC Las Vegas to Tomorrowland and ADE, his sets are known for being packed with unreleased IDs that keep the “Mau P Mafia” coming back for more.
  • Baddest Behaviour Concept: His own event series has seen him play open-to-close sets, showcasing his ability to take a crowd on a true musical journey.

What’s Next for 2026?

The announcement of his debut album suggests a more cohesive body of work is on the way, potentially exploring deeper sounds and more high-profile collaborations. Meanwhile, his new label will give him the platform to sign the next generation of house music rebels, ensuring his influence on the genre remains permanent.

As Mau P says himself, “Y’all are not ready for everything else that’s to come.”
