The Sponges
About The Sponges
Get ready planet Earth, The Sponges are back from Funktopia and they brought the party. Formed from the collective minds of Ryan Slepin and Nik Eaton, The Sponges guarantee to have girls and guys alike groovin' on the dancefloor. The South Florida based production duo began as great friends connecting through their passion for music, and teamed up to deliver psychedelic dance music across the nation. The Sponges signature sound fuses 70's funk, heavy bass, and nostalgic sample chops with a classic four on the floor rhythm. Support and praise quickly arose from several renowned artists in the house music scene such as Ardalan, Taiki Nulight, Back2Black, Movenchy, Haechi, Sonny Banks, and Aylen. The Sponges released their first official track, "Make It Juicy!" on Box Of Cats, a label founded by the dominant collective of Wongo, JeffDoubleu, Jak Z, Kyle Watson, Tom EQ and Marc Spence. The duo continue to evolve their sound into the 2020s, branching out of the house scene and into their own "funky electronica" style with influences from artists such as Tipper, Daft Punk, Earth, Wind & Fire, and many more.
