297: (JEEP MIX) x ST presents MUSCLECARS, HAF S and Tyrone Solomon

(JEEP MIX) x ST presents a holiday celebration with MUSCLECARS, HAF S and Tyrone Solomon!

Native to New York, MUSCLECARS is a DJ / Producer duo consisting of Brandon Weems and Craig Handfield. As musicians, they equally share an admiration for the art form. Their desire to blend genres and express their appreciation for music is focused around their community; the end goal is to bring people together.This mission has led them to play some of the biggest clubs in the world, from their residency at Nowadays in New York, to bookings at Panorama Bar in Berlin. They’ve been recognized in publications such as Rolling Stone, Billboard, Mixmag, Vinyl Factory, and most recently, their ‘Breaking Through’ feature on Resident Advisor. Through a regular stream of high quality mixes and multiple outstanding releases, they’re constantly turning heads in underground circles.

In 2018 they launched ‘Coloring Lessons’, a party that was aimed to add value to their city’s nightlife culture. While the party and sound is not genre specific, it is heavily focused around house, disco, jazz, and soul, embracing the musical elements of their black and brown ancestors. The monthly party's intention is to bring New York City's dance music scene back to what it was during the golden era of NY nightlife, pulling on a lineage of inspirational spaces, such as The Paradise Garage, The Loft, Body and Soul, and 718 Sessions, to name a few. They aim to spread the music and sensibilities that have been influential to them, and share it with a younger generation of their peers.

In 2020 the pair launched the label Coloring Lessons Records. The label, like the party, is intended on building up artists from their city and beyond, with the sound indicative of the Coloring Lessons ethos-which is sharing music created by their peers and inspired by their ancestors of color, and teaching younger generations about the roots of this music.

HAF S (JEEP MIX) AKA HXF is a Toronto-based artist, DJ, producer, and cultural connector with over 25 years in the dance music scene. Synth-driven, burger-powered, and 99% Halal, HXF is a vibe cultivator supreme — blending syncopated rhythms, lush textures, and deep grooves into sets that move with intention. His sound is organic and emotional, balancing high energy with introspection, always reading the room and riding the moment.

Rooted in the foundations of house, techno, and everything in between, HXF's work is all about bridging gaps — between genres, communities, generations, and dance floors. Collaboration is at the heart of everything he does. Whether it's linking with DJs and dancers, connecting producers and promoters, or building trust with venues, he brings people together to create something that lasts.

His creative world expands through JEEP MIX — a multifaceted platform that started as a long-running monthly radio show and evolved into a banner for events, DJ sets, production credits, and soon, a record label. JEEP MIX is more than a name — it’s a style, a design, a way of moving through the city. It represents the same values that drive HXF: community, quality, and pushing Toronto’s underground forward.

As a producer, HXF has released a range of original music and beat tapes — including the No Frills! series — gaining international attention while staying true to the sound and spirit of his hometown. His events are known for their focus and feel, built to uplift local talent and give real heads a space to connect.

Whether behind the decks, curating lineups, or holding down the airwaves, HXF is committed to documenting, building, and celebrating the sound of Toronto — from the basement to the booth, from the past to the future.

As a member of the renowned 83 West production team and part of the dynamic collective Trackheadz, Tyrone Solomon has established himself as a force to be reckoned with in the electronic music scene. His unique style blends soulful house, deep grooves, and captivating rhythms, creating an immersive musical experience that captivates audiences worldwide.
