Brooklyn artist and producer Kozlow is elevating his underground empire with the official launch of his ANTHR FCKNG PARTY brand as a record label.
The new venture follows a highly successful year for the cult-favorite party series, which became one of New York City’s hottest nightlife attractions, with over 10,000 attendees in 2025 alone. Renowned for its barebones, no-lineup, no-phones aesthetic, ANTHR FCKNG PARTY is now a mainstay among dance music fans in search of authenticity, camaraderie, and energy.
Kozlow, classically trained on violin, has built an unorthodox career that ranges from playing with Carl Cox at Burning Man to skiing jams with Lindsey Vonn and Hugh Jackman, and even working at legendary Electric Lady Studios. With ANTHR FCKNG PARTY now branching into a label, Kozlow moves further into the limelight as tastemaker and curator of underground sounds.
The label’s first release, “Untitled,” is a tech-house groove based on a recurring bassline, sharp kicks, and natural textures built on top of the hypnotic vocal loop “hit it.” It’s meant for late-night dancefloors and upscale lounge sets, realizing Kozlow’s concept of fusing stripped-down rawness with a cutting-edge underground sensibility. “Born from parties, ANTHR FCKNG PARTY celebrates the raw energy and creative freedom that make up real music,” Kozlow explained. Our first release, ‘Untitled,’ is a reflection of House basics yet also stays true to the raw sound classic period of dance culture.
The series, introduced in NYC throughout DIY clubs and legendary rooms, developed organically from a basic want to share good music with people in interesting spaces. Kozlow described how what started as a monthly pop-up event has morphed into a cultural movement that highlights community, genuineness, and a fresh crop of underground talent.
AFP isn’t slowing down either. Future events are in the pipeline for Aspen, Los Angeles, Miami, Montreal, and New York City, further cementing the brand as a worldwide underground nightlife player. Kozlow himself maintains an active touring schedule around the globe, sharing bills with Carl Cox, Green Velvet, Cedric Gervais, and Alesso, in addition to monthly residencies at NYC clubs Outer Heaven and Gospel, where he combines live violin with indie house DJ sets.
Fans can catch Kozlow’s future performances at such venues as Escobar in Aspen on September 12, Maison Nur in New York on September 20, Brooklyn Last Call on September 27, Venice Afterburn in Los Angeles on October 4–5, White Lodge in New York on October 31 and November 1, and Outer Heaven on November 8.
With ANTHR FCKNG PARTY now established as both a party series and record label, Kozlow is showing that his vision for organic, community-focused dance music is only just beginning.
