Brooklyn-based duo **musclecars**—comprised of Craig Handfield and Brandon Weems—are at the forefront of New York’s vibrant dance music community. Known for blending deep house, soulful grooves, and percussive rhythms, their sound channels both the spirit of the city’s underground and a forward-thinking global energy. Through their residency at Public Records and releases on labels like toucan sounds and Coloring Lessons, musclecars have built a reputation for cultivating inclusive dance floors and curating emotionally resonant, rhythm-driven sets that honor the roots of house while pushing it into new territory.
