ACRAZE

ACRAZE is the stage name of Charlie Duncker, born August 2, 1995, in Staten Island, New York, who grew up with a Honduran mother and German heritage and spent his formative years in Orlando, Florida after relocating there as a child. His path into electronic music began in 2014 when attending his first EDC Orlando introduced him to the scale and energy of the festival circuit — an experience that redirected the trajectory of everything that followed. He began producing music in 2016 and released his debut single Pull Up in 2017 on 4B's sublabel MACA, entering the scene with an aggressive bass-heavy sound rooted in trap and dubstep before gradually evolving toward the house-inflected style that would become his signature. The defining moment of his career came in August 2021 when he released Do It To It featuring Cherish — a house edit built around the vocal hook from Cherish's 2006 R&B single. Released through Thrive Music in partnership with Capitol Records and Virgin Music, the track went viral on TikTok almost immediately and quickly became a global phenomenon. Do It To It peaked at No. 3 on Billboard's Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart and entered the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 65 — Duncker's first Hot 100 entry — while accumulating over 12 billion global streams across platforms. iHeartRadio named it the 2021 Dance Song of the Year, cementing its status as one of the most commercially successful dance tracks of its era. The remix package drew participation from over two dozen artists including Tiësto and David Guetta, an acknowledgment from the industry's established heavyweights that the original had broken through in a way that rarely happens within the typically underground-anchored tech house ecosystem. The track propelled ACRAZE from a developing act on the regional DJ circuit to a globally recognized name almost overnight. Within months of its release, he received bookings for EDC Las Vegas, Ultra Music Festival, Tomorrowland, and Coachella — a level of festival currency that typically takes producers years to build and that ACRAZE reached in a single release cycle. He began his first Las Vegas residency in early 2022 at Hakkasan Nightclub at MGM Grand, establishing an early Strip presence before transitioning to his current home at Wynn Nightlife. His Insomniac Records debut followed with Watcha Do To Me, a tech house single positioned squarely for peak-hour dancefloor impact, demonstrating his ability to develop beyond the viral moment that launched him into the first tier of global bookings. Subsequent releases including Believe, featuring British duo Goodboys, and Take Me Away continued building a catalog anchored in identifiable vocal hooks layered over driving bass and compressed kick patterns. AcRAZE's production style sits at the peak-time end of tech house: driving kick patterns, compressed sub-bass, and vocal loops engineered to work at arena and festival volume as well as in the intimate nightclub booth environment. His sound occupies a productive middle ground between underground credibility and mainstream commercial crossover — a positioning that few tech house producers sustain, because the genre's underground infrastructure tends to view mainstream success skeptically while mainstream dance audiences rarely follow the genre's more functional, floor-focused releases. Do It To It managed to cross that gap cleanly, which helps explain why his Las Vegas residency placement moved from Hakkasan at MGM to the Wynn portfolio, where his profile matches the premium billing the venue reserves for artists who can drive significant walk-up demand alongside the guest list traffic that forms the base of any Strip nightclub's business model. His current Las Vegas residency at Wynn Nightlife centers on XS Nightclub and Encore Beach Club — two of the most operationally significant venues on the Las Vegas Strip. XS, the 40,000-square-foot nightclub at Wynn Encore, has hosted the highest-grossing residencies in Las Vegas nightclub history and remains one of the most sought-after bookings in the global electronic music market. Encore Beach Club provides the daytime complement, one of the Strip's premier outdoor dayclub venues where ACRAZE's high-energy, sample-driven tech house translates directly into the outdoor pool party environment. His bookings at both venues reach the full demographic range of the Wynn guest base — from festival-trained tech house fans who know his catalog to hotel guests encountering his sound for the first time through the XS and EBC experience. His confirmed August 2, 2026 booking at Encore Beach Club at Night (EBC at Night Nightswim) extends his Las Vegas schedule into the first weekend of August — Black Hat USA and DEF CON week when 50,000 technology professionals are on the Strip, driving elevated demand at premium outdoor nightlife venues.
