Justin Martin

San Francisco-based DJ and producer Justin Martin is one of the founding members of Dirtybird Records — the label Claude VonStroke built into one of the defining forces in American house music — appearing on the imprint's first four releases and helping shape its quirky, funky, groove-forward identity from the beginning. Born April 20, 1979, Martin approached electronic music production through the lens of San Francisco's underground club culture, developing a sound rooted in deep, rolling house grooves with comedic vocal samples, rubbery basslines, and the irreverent personality that became Dirtybird's signature. His 2013 debut album Ghettos and Gardens earned support from NPR, SPIN, and Nylon — a rare crossover for a house record — demonstrating that his production had depth and personality beyond the dancefloor context. He co-wrote 'Reach for Me' with Claude VonStroke, a track that became a staple in house DJ sets globally, and has appeared on labels including Dirtybird, Objektivity, Suara, Moshi Moshi, and his own What To Do imprint, which he launched in 2020 as a platform for emerging underground talent. His Tao Beach Dayclub bookings at The Venetian Resort bring his San Francisco–rooted Dirtybird house sound to the Las Vegas daytime pool circuit.

Justin Martin is a resident DJ, performing on a regular schedule throughout the season. Residents build a loyal following and deliver consistent, high-quality performances that keep crowds coming back. Resident sets are often the best-kept secret in Vegas nightlife because the energy and musicianship rival headliner nights at a fraction of the crowd.

Justin Martin currently performs at Tao Beach in Las Vegas, typically on Select dates — Tao Beach Dayclub. Their sets span house, delivering a sound that has earned them one of the most dedicated followings in the Las Vegas residency circuit.

A Justin Martin set is built for the dance floor. House music in a Vegas nightclub creates a groove-driven atmosphere where the four-on-the-floor beat keeps the crowd moving for hours without the jarring peaks and valleys of other genres. The sound systems at major Vegas venues reproduce the warm basslines and crisp hi-hats of house music with stunning clarity. Expect longer mixes, smooth transitions, and a crowd that appreciates musicianship over spectacle.

Justin Martin typically takes the stage on Select dates — Tao Beach Dayclub. Their sets run 60 to 90 minutes and deliver the full Vegas production experience with professional sound, lighting, and crowd energy that you cannot find anywhere else.
