NEW YORK, NY – The boundary between the opera house and the main stage has continue dissolving with the rise of HOLIDEUS, the experimental electronic music project from visionary producer Mark Holiday (Trendsetter). Merging the dramatic scale of orchestral arrangements with the high-energy pulse of modern dance music, HOLIDEUS is capturing the attention of global audiences and industry tastemakers alike.
The “Future Classical” Sound
HOLIDEUS has pioneered a unique sonic identity described by critics as “Future Classical.” By seamlessly weaving haunting operatic vocals and intricate symphonic structures into hard-hitting EDM production, the artist creates an immersive, cinematic experience that is as emotionally resonant as it is danceable.
This innovative approach has already led to significant commercial success, with HOLIDEUS tracks frequently appearing in the iTunes and Apple Music Dance Charts. The project’s ability to bridge the gap between high art and club culture has made it a standout in 2025’s crowded electronic landscape.
A Mission of Compassion: The ARTCATS Initiative
Beyond the studio, HOLIDEUS is one of core pillars of the ARTCATS project, the philanthropic mission founded by Mark Holiday. Driven by a passion for animal welfare, a dedicated portion of all royalties generated by HOLIDEUS music—including streams on Spotify and Apple Music—is funneled directly into providing food and medical care for stray animals and supporting underfunded shelters worldwide.
“With HOLIDEUS, I wanted to prove that music can be both intellectually deep and physically moving,” says Mark Holiday. “But more importantly, I wanted that art to serve a purpose. Every time someone listens to these orchestral dance pieces, they are contributing to the ARTCATS mission. We are using the power of sound to save lives.”
Global Recognition and Chart Success
HOLIDEUS continues to earn widespread acclaim through:
Chart Performance: Consistent Top-100 placement in Dance categories across international digital storefronts.
Critical Buzz: Featured in music blogs for pushing the technical boundaries of genre-mashing.
