BIOGRAPHY:
Party Wolfe is electronic dance music from Austin, Texas. Influenced by: Justice, Martin Garrix, Ghostland Observatory, The Glitch Mob, and Daft Punk.
A.J. Vincent is Party Wolfe.
A.J. was born in Austin, Texas, and has toured all over the world with multiple bands playing keyboards and singing. A.J. does keyboards and vocals in the band ...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead. He started making electronic music a few years into touring, and he is completely driven by wanting to make people dance with his music.
Party Wolfe was born from a wolf hat on tour. A.J. bought a fuzzy, festival-style wolf hat during a tour with a band he used to play with, he started wearing the hat after he was done with the set each night, which led to him wearing the hat while partying backstage or in the crowd on tour. Someone saw him in the crowd one night on that tour, pointed and said, "Party wolf!" And so, Party Wolfe was born.
ASTRAL HEAT Album Story:
A.J. Vincent aka Party Wolfe adores space sci-fi anything: be it gaming, TV shows, movies, etc, so he wanted to make an album fit for space exploration. After writing “You Feel About Me” and “When Stars Collide”, he decided that it was time to put together various songs he had made into a dance album that sounds like the soundtrack to an intrepid space dance expedition. A.J. started making some of the songs a couple years ago, but they never got finished or included on an album. Other songs were made just a few months ago, but the space theme was present throughout all of the writing and music production process. Later in the album creation process, he started producing images for the album with the help of the AI engine Disco Diffusion that gave Astral Heat a sort of scrapbook of where the album lives via the images the AI engine created. A.J. produced two music videos, the album artwork, and various other images in collaboration with Disco Diffusion.

Press Quotes:
"...I was intrigued but a little skeptical that one shaggy-haired guy and a keyboard/keytar would be all that good to watch live.
Holy fuck, was I wrong. Live, Vincent is a beast; he gets up on the stage and dives immediately into the funkiest, ’70s-est, sweatiest groove you’ve heard in years, all built around old-school-sounding synths and snapping, disco-ified beats, and despite the seeming ridiculousness of it all — I mean, c’mon, a dude with his shirt halfway open rocking the hell out on a keytar? — he’s got the swagger and skill to pull it off. By the end of his set, I was into it..."

"Epic synth rock pairing ELO grandeur with New Wave hooks and drive."
