Swedish don Eric Prydz really knows how to get the year started right. After going back-to-back with his label protégé Jeremy Olander for the first Essential Mix of 2015, Prydz has announced his next move. From February 12, 2015, the DJ will head out across America on the month-long ‘Generate Tour.’ On this circuit, he’s going back-to-basics. As the man himself succinctly puts it: “Starting 2015 off where it all began for me – extended, club sets.”

The ‘Generate Tour’ will be hitting some of North America’s leading clubs and live venues over February, including Beta in Denver, Montreal’s New City Gas, The Mid in Chicago and Exchange Los Angeles. In New York, his chosen stop is Verboten: a far more intimate space than Madison Square Garden, where he staged EPIC 3.0 last September.
