Matroda and San Pacho Debut AFTER MIDNIGHT with “Rich & Handsome”

2 weeks ago 22

Matroda and San Pacho unite their sounds on a collaborative project, AFTER MIDNIGHT, and launch it with their debut track, “Rich & Handsome,” featuring CREG.

When two highly respected artists coexist to create an alias or side project, the result is often delightfully unpredictable. AFTER MIDNIGHT is a new project brought to life by the creative forces of Matroda and San Pacho, and let’s say the results of their debut track “Rich & Handsome” were… captivating.

As the first statement from AFTER MIDNIGHT, “Rich & Handsome” sets the tone for a project rooted in intentional collaboration, highlighting the creative spark that comes from two beloved artists joining forces. Featuring the vocals of CREG, a Los Angeles-based artist who emerged in late 2025 with a breakout collaboration with GRiZ and Tape B, the track bleeds sharp and bouncy four-on-the-floor grooves.

It’s no secret that the two producers aren’t new to the scene. Both have cemented their place in modern house music, earning global recognition for transforming underground club energy into festival-ready moments. But, AFTER MIDNIGHT isn’t simply another collaborative alias or musical project. The collaboration arrives as a carefully curated creative concept, with Matroda and San Pacho building a self-contained world that prioritizes mood, intention, and cultural impact over constantly putting out music.

Their debut single serves as the opening chapter of that vision, hinting at a darker, more atmospheric side of their shared sound. The rollout will also remain intentionally selective, with a limited run of releases and appearances. This includes their first live performance slated for the Do LaB during Weekend 2 of Coachella.

Make sure to stream “Rich & Handsome” via your favorite streaming platform, and follow AFTER MIDNIGHT to stay updated on new releases and upcoming events.
