The Martinez Brothers will headline the Resistance stage at Ultra Music Festival 2026, taking place March 27–29 at Bayfront Park in Miami. This marks a historic milestone: the first-ever stage takeover by their influential label, Cuttin' Headz.

The duo recently placed #43 on DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs 2025 list, reinforcing their global influence in dance music. Now, they're stepping into a new role at one of the world's premier electronic festivals, not just as performers but as curators and architects of the entire stage experience.

A Personally Programmed Lineup

The Cuttin' Headz stage takeover will be personally programmed by The Martinez Brothers, showcasing a lineup of underground and global DJs aligned with the label's signature sound. Since its founding in 2014, Cuttin' Headz has earned acclaim as a tastemaker in house and techno. This stage takeover represents the label's evolution from release platform to full creative direction at the festival level.

"This moment at Ultra is all about family," said The Martinez Brothers. "Cuttin' Headz has always been about showcasing the artists and sounds we love. To bring our own curated stage to a festival of this magnitude, and to headline it ourselves, is a dream. We're giving everyone the full experience: where we come from, who we ride with, and where we're going next."

Signing Their First Official Artist

Adding to the momentum, Cuttin' Headz has signed its first official artist, Black Fancy. The Italian DJ/producer is known for his Afro-influenced tech-house sound and vibrant storytelling. He was named a "Future of Dance" artist by 1001Tracklists in 2022, and his signing marks the label's transition into talent development and brand-building.

Black Fancy's addition signals Cuttin' Headz's commitment to nurturing emerging talent while maintaining the underground ethos that built the label's reputation. It's a move that positions the label as more than just a platform for releases, but as a home for artists who embody its sound and vision.

A Dual Presence at Ultra 2026

Ultra Music Festival remains one of the world's most influential electronic gatherings, drawing hundreds of thousands of fans to Miami each year. In 2026, The Martinez Brothers' dual presence as main stage headliners and label-stage curators cements their role not just as artists, but as true architects in the dance music world.

This level of creative control at a festival of Ultra's scale is rare and reflects the respect The Martinez Brothers have earned throughout their career. Their ability to command both the main stage and their own branded experience shows how far they've come since their early days in the Bronx.
