A wave of Hard Groove House has been making its way across the Atlantic, and leading the charge in the U.S. is Atura.
He’s cementing his place as dance music’s next breakout force, backed by tastemakers like Tchami, salute, and Porter Robinson, and his brand new EP, ‘Rebirth,’ is solidifying that status.
Building on the momentum of singles like “Your Mind” and “LIKE THIS,” the new project expands Atura’s sonic world into a hard-groove, French-inspired realm – a space he’s uniquely making his own. Loopy, flowy, and irresistibly rhythmic, ‘Rebirth’ feels like a euphoric collision between Parisian club finesse and American energy.
Atura’s rise has been fueled by respect from across the global dance scene. His tracks have earned co-signs and regular play from European tastemakers and producers leading the hard-groove resurgence, signaling a rare cross-continental approval. It’s a testament to his skill in blending the pulse of modern club culture with the French touch – that warm, filtered, feel-good essence that defined an era of house music and now finds fresh life in his sound.
With ‘Rebirth,’ Atura hones in on the style he’s been steadily shaping over his last few releases. The project functions as both a statement of identity and a bridge between eras of dance music: French-inspired grooves meet future-facing club energy, offering an emotional yet kinetic listening experience that’s as suited for warehouse nights as it is for festival main stages.
Atura shares, “‘Rebirth’ is the finale of a journey of reinvention and healing, taking the first steps toward a new era of self and sound. I created this music during a tough time in my life and I can confidently say it helped me heal from within. Each song means a little more than the one before, I hope you love it as much as I do.”
Following his recent direct opening set for Porter Robinson at EDCO’s official afterparty, Atura’s live performances are becoming the centerpiece of his creative expression. Fans can stay tuned for more live shows to be announced.
Eric Peschke, known professionally as Atura, is a rising American electronic music artist and DJ carving out his own distinct lane in today’s club landscape. Growing up near Boston, Atura first gravitated toward the piano at his grandparents’ house, a creative outlet that would later shape the melodic depth and emotional nuance of his productions.
After being named to YourEDM’s Top 40 Artists to Watch in 2023, Atura began turning heads with tracks like “From Here” and his official remix of “Pain Away” by Harry Hayes & Lily Ward, earning placements in Spotify editorials such as “Fresh Finds” and “crying on the dancefloor.” His edit of Cesco’s “Up The Place” gained support from Porter Robinson, Pluko, and Wavedash, paving the way for his first festival appearance at Nocturnal Wonderland.
Based in the Boston area, Atura is entering his most exciting chapter yet. His breakout single “LIKE THIS” became a runaway success, climbing to 30k streams a day and receiving heavy play from tastemaker acts including Porter Robinson, Disclosure, Tchami, salute, and JOY ANONYMOUS. The momentum has carried him onto stages opening direct support for Porter Robinson at EDC Orlando’s After Party, and shows alongside Demotapes, Wes Mills, and B&L in LA, as well as his NYC headline show in September 2025.
With his third EP set to arrive in late 2025, Atura is honing a refined sound that fuses French house, disco, and hard groove influences with soulful melodies and sharp, club-ready energy. It’s a style that feels both fresh and timeless, placing him in conversation with boundary-pushing peers like Disclosure, salute, and Kettama, yet always with his own American perspective and unique twist.
