DJ Jace M Brings ‘Pride with a Purpose’ to Atlanta
By Anthony Lewis
Miami-based DJ and producer Jace M is bringing his signature high-energy sound to Atlanta May 25. His appearance comes at a pivotal moment in his career, as he celebrates the release of his latest dance track, “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us,” a collaboration with internationally renowned DJ Toy Armada. The song is a bold and uplifting remake of Starship’s 1987 hit, “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now,” a track that became a cultural touchstone when it was featured in the classic film Mannequin.
For Jace M, the song’s message of resilience and unity is more important now than ever, particularly within the LGBTQ+ community. He believes that music has the power to unite people in the face of adversity and hopes this new version of the song can serve as a rallying cry for those facing discrimination. The new single features vocalists Chandler Mogel and Zoe Lyons Nieves, whose powerful performances recapture the magic of the original while adding a modern flair. Toy Armada, known for his uplifting productions, worked alongside Jace M to preserve the track’s emotional core while transforming it into a dance anthem fit for today’s clubs and festivals.
Atlanta clubgoers can expect a night of electrifying music at Heretic, where Jace M will take over the decks and deliver a set packed with soaring vocals, pulsating beats, and anthemic melodies.
Jace M has established himself as a force in the dance music world, drawing from his roots in Washington, D.C., and Detroit before making Miami his home. By day, he works as a computer engineer, but his passion for music has led to collaborations with industry heavyweights like Joe Gauthreaux, Mauro Mozart, and Toy Armada. His ability to blend nostalgic elements with fresh, vocal-driven house music has made him a favorite among club audiences. Toy Armada, a Billboard #1 remixer, producer, and international DJ from Quezon City, Philippines, has built an impressive career performing at global LGBTQ+ events, including White Party Palm Springs, Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras, NYC WorldPride, and Miami’s Winter Party Festival. His signature style, marked by thunderous tribal beats and soaring vocal anthems, has led him to work with some of the biggest names in pop music, including Ariana Grande, Taylor Swift, Kylie Minogue, Cher, Demi Lovato, and Nicki Minaj.
Beyond its dancefloor appeal, “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us” also serves a deeper purpose. Jace M and Toy Armada have partnered with the National LGBTQ+ Task Force and Winter Party to support the ongoing fight for LGBTQ+ rights. Proceeds from the song’s sales and streaming revenue will directly benefit the Task Force, ensuring that the music makes an impact both on and off the dancefloor.
The remix package for “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us” includes versions of the track in Afro House, Big Room, Piano House, and Tech House by Brady Prince, Oscar Velazquez, and Erick Ibiza.
