The electronic music artist ZHU (Steven Zhu) has announced ON THE MOVE dates for Europe, South and North America in support of his recently released album, BLACK MIDAS (Broke/BLACKLIZT Sound Syndicate). Artist presale launches this Wednesday, April 29 (join for access via https://laylo.com/zhu/m/ONTHEMOVE) with general on sale set for May 1 at 10 am local time. All dates are listed below:
ZHU’s ON THE MOVE dates kick off May 15 in Bogota, Columbia and take him through a variety of clubs and festivals from previously announced engagements at Into The Horizon Festival in San Diego, Audiorivier in Poland and Tomorrowland in Belgium to first time plays at Medusa Club in Medellin, Club Chinois Ibiza, Pacha Munich, The Concourse Project in Austin, and SILO in Dallas. The routing also has ZHU returning to London for a play at The Roundhouse and Turkey for clubs La Nouba, Yuzu Beach and MAGI Beach where he previously brought his BLACKLIZT events through. All confirmed dates follow below with more to be announced soon.
ZHU is one of a handful of performers and songwriters in the genre who continue to push boundaries in many forms of art beyond club and music festival culture. Creating concepts and atmospheric experiences for fans, both sonically and in real life, ZHU continues to demonstrate a fearless pursuit to evolve today’s music through his artistic vision. As an extension of the environments he created through his BLACKLIZT events, ZHU is encouraging his fans to wear all black and experience his album of compelling dancefloor tracks including “5STARR,” “LEVELZZ, “BURN” and more of his favorite deep house and melodic techno productions at an ON THE MOVE show.
As his breakout hit “Faded” was given new life via a remix from HNTR, ZHU spent 2025 embarking on DJ sets integrating himself deeper into the global dance music community, building upon his BLACKLIZT nightlife concept and arcing into what was to become BLACK MIDAS. There were sets with Mathame in Bogota and deadmau5 on Coachella’s Quazar stage, surprise pop ups post Bonnaroo weather shutdown in Nashville, Brooklyn Store House in NYC, and at Lighting In A Bottle, as well as shared stages with Paul Kalkbrenner and Mahmut Orhan. Closing the year, he traveled to Turkey for a headlining set at Istanbul’s VW Arena and London for a turn at the legendary Drumsheds. In 2026, ZHU returned to Ultra Music Festival for the first time since his debut in 2017 with an unforgettable presentation for BLACK MIDAS complete with the artist ‘in the round’ surrounded by mannequins and the stage set on fire.
