Hear Whethan’s Set From Splash House 2026, Including a Glitchy ‘Levels’ Edit & New Music With Subtronics
It's 90 minutes of bass from the poolside party to your ears.
The renowned Splash House party returned to Palm Springs, California, for a second consecutive weekend in mid-August, drawing a crowd of DJs and party-goers to three resorts. While Splash House is often associated with vibrant, electronic music, producer Whethan showcased his ability to command the deep end with a 90-minute set that included heavy bass, hip-hop, and more.
Highlights of Whethan's set included a glitchy remix of Avicii's "Levels," a powerful remix of Gucci Mane and Waka Flocka Flame's 2011 track "15th and the 1st," new music collaborations with Subtronics (around the 29-minute mark), and a viral 2025 edit of Fast Life Yungstaz's "Swag Surfin." The latter song gained significant traction during the Splash House set, creating a memorable moment for attendees.
Speaking to Billboard, Whethan expressed his enthusiasm for Splash House, stating, "I've always loved Splash House. It was a nice change of pace from the darker, gritty warehouse world I'm usually in." He recounted a particularly fun moment from the event, when a group staying in the hotel behind the stage displayed a massive custom "Swag Surfin with Whethan" banner, featuring a graphic from Surf's Up.
Whethan playfully engaged with these fans, giving them a shoutout during his performance of "Swag Surfin'" and sparking a humorous and perfect reaction from the crowd. The 2026 lineup also featured artists such as Kettama, Riordon, Prospa, Alison Wonderland, Tiga, and many others, adding to the diverse and exciting atmosphere of the event.
