Eli Goldstein’s career spans 20+ years on the decks and beyond. Best known as half of EFUNK purveyors SOUL CLAP, Eli’s path through the music industry winds like a river flowing down a mountain. He DJed around the world, but focuses on local and regional gigs to travel responsibly, while hosting a monthly show on Brooklyn’s THE LOT RADIO. He runs SOUL CLAP RECORDS, one of Mixmag’s most influential disco labels. He cultivates deeper connections with FUTURE SOUND OF NATURE, a regenerative electronic music festival in upstate New York. And he’s one of the founders of BLACK FLAMINGO, a discotheque and restaurant in Brooklyn. Through it all, Eli’s mission has been to share music that feels like the past, but sounds like the future. Music that makes you move your body and feel something in your soul. But music is not always enough, and Eli strives to make a positive impact on the world by helping humans remember that WE ARE ALL NATURE and fighting for climate justice with DJS FOR CLIMATE ACTION, receiving an M.S. in CLIMATE SCIENCE & POLICY, co-chairing the AFEM GREEN GROUP, sitting on the IN PLACE OF WAR ARTISTS ADVISORY BOARD, and supporting GIVE A BEAT’s social justice programs.
