Moon Boots and Pete Dougherty are technically the same person, but in many ways, the two couldn’t be more different. The former is a globe-trotting extrovert whose genre-hopping (but always funky) DJ sets reliably fill dancefloors around the world. The latter is a relatively shy dude with a studio tan who has been geeking out on synths since he was a teenager.

Born in Brooklyn, Pete spent his adolescence in the suburbs. Early formative musical memories include MFSB’s “Love Is The Message” at block parties and years jamming to Daft Punk in the barn with a blacklight on. Pete moved to Chicago after college. The city transformed Pete and after a few years playing in the band Hey Champ, Moon Boots was born with series of releases for French Express. Quickly leveling up his craft, Pete signed with Anjunadeep and moved back to Brooklyn.

When Moon Boots hits the booth, he’s got one mission: to give you the best night of your life. Whether playing at iconic clubs like Chicago’s Smart Bar — where he cut his teeth watching legends like Frankie Knuckles and Derrick Carter — or the world’

Moon Boots

Moon Boots and Pete Dougherty are technically the same person, but in many ways, the two couldn't be more different. The former is a celebrated DJ, a globe-trotting extrovert whose genre-hopping (but always funky) sets reliably fill dancefloors around the world. The latter is a relatively shy dude with a studio tan who has been geeking out on synths since he was a teenager.

Pete was born in Brooklyn, and some of his earliest musical memories include block parties where Paradise Garage classics like MSFB's "Love Is the Message" blared through the neighborhood. His adolescent years were spent in the suburbs, where he studied classical and jazz and played synth and keys in a variety of bands.

After catching disco fever in an unlikely place — while studying at Princeton University — he moved to Chicago, the birthplace of house music. The city transformed Pete. Not only did it give him the chance to see legends like Frankie Knuckles, Paul Johnson and Derrick Carter on their home turf, it also gave him the opportunity to start DJing himself.

Moon Boots New Album ‘Ride Away’ is a Gateway Drug for Those Getting into House Music

NEW YORK–BASED DJ AND PRODUCER — Moon Boots, also known as Peter Dougherty, is ready to hit the ground running with his third studio album, Ride Away. Out March 17 via Anjunadeep, the album features sounds of house music, soul, and disco.

Ride Away was crafted over the course of two years, with 10 songs highlighting Dougherty’s talents as an artist. Eight of the tracks feature other artists, includingCherry Glazerr, Dope Earth Alien, and Nic Hanson. Dougherty hopes this album reaches both new and old fans.

“Maybe people don't even listen to that much house music, but this is sort of like a gateway drug for them,” Dougherty said. “That's one type of person — someone who's maybe been a fan of electronic music for years and is a bit jaded. Maybe this, the album, is a breath of fresh air.”
