Jason Kushy has released his new two-track EP, Side Effects, today, November 6, 2026, via OMNIX Records, under exclusive license to Universal Music Ltda.
Listen to Side Effects on Spotify.
Featuring “No Distractions” and “Veneno,” the EP continues Kushy’s focus on energetic club music, melodic accessibility and the connection between a DJ and the crowd. The release follows his Beatport-charting Keep It Moving EP and adds another chapter to a catalog that began taking shape in 2025.
Kushy is based in Monterey, California, after growing up in Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley. His musical journey started at approximately 11 years old, when he taught himself to DJ using an $80 mixer in his parents’ basement. By eighth grade, he had launched his own DJ business, later performing at weddings, proms and parties as a teenager.
Those early performances helped Kushy develop his ability to read a room and respond to an audience—skills that continue to influence his production style and live sets. Since releasing his original music, he has surpassed one million Spotify streams, reached more than 120,000 monthly listeners and connected with over 450,000 unique listeners during the past 12 months.
His Keep It Moving EP, released on Direct Action Records, peaked at No. 18 on Beatport’s Tech House Top 100 Releases chart. Kushy has also received support from Louis The Child, SIDEPIECE, Jauz, Wolfgang Gartner, Bingo Players and San Holo, along with repost support from Dim Mak, Insomniac Records, Barong Family and Space Yacht.
Beyond his releases, Kushy continues to build the Stay Kushy project, combining original music, minimalist artwork, exclusive edits and custom visuals inspired by games, animation and pop culture.
