Who Is What So Not?
What So Not is the project of Australian DJ and producer Chris Emerson (Emoh Instead), who originally formed the duo with Flume (Harley Streten) before continuing as a solo act. His debut album 'Not All the Beautiful Things' (2018) topped the US Billboard Dance/Electronic Albums chart at #1, and his genre-spanning approach blends electro, dance, and bass music into immersive DJ sets described as 'all-consuming dance experiences' combining music, visuals, and lighting. He has performed at major international festivals including Coachella and EDC, and holds a confirmed booking at Substance on Fremont in Downtown Las Vegas on July 17, 2026.

Pro Tips
Insider Tips for Seeing What So Not in Vegas
Arrive Early
Doors open around 10:30 PM, but guest list entry is typically guaranteed until 12:30 AM. For What So Not shows on Friday or Saturday, arrive by 11:00 PM. The venue fills up fast once the headliner takes the stage, and early arrival gives you the best position on the dance floor.
Dress Code Matters
Vegas nightclub dress code is strictly enforced, even on guest list. Men should wear collared shirts, dress pants or dark jeans, and dress shoes. Women should wear cocktail attire or upscale club wear. No athletic shoes, sandals, or overly casual clothing.
Group Strategy
Guest list works best with an even gender ratio. Groups with more women than men get in faster. All-male groups should consider adding bottle service for guaranteed entry, especially on headliner nights. For groups of 8 or more, contact us directly for VIP packages.
Use the Free Entry
The free entry service saves you $30-50 in rideshare surge pricing on busy nights. Plus, arriving by ride often means a smoother entry experience at the venue. Just mention it when you sign up for the guest list, and we will coordinate pickup from your hotel.
