Goldman Sachs honcho David Solomon has scored a slot to DJ at Tomorrowland — a decadent European dance-music festival known for its undulating throngs of naked, sweaty, drug-fueled revelers.
Solomon — who took the CEO job at Goldman last October from longtime boss Lloyd Blankfein — moonlights as a part-time DJ, spinning dance tracks under the name “DJ D-Sol” at New York City clubs like Up & Down and Libation.
The 57-year-old banker is close with Sirius XM host Liquid Todd, and last year opened up for star DJ Paul Oakenfold. In February, Solomon’s club single “Feel Alive” rose to No. 4 on the Billboard Dance music charts — briefly eclipsing Ariana Grande’s “7 Rings.”
Nevertheless, the Tomorrowland gig will take DJ D-Sol’s career to a new level, according to insiders. One of the world’s biggest music festivals, the epic shindig outside Antwerp, Belgium last year attracted more than 800,000 people.
Solomon, who is slated to take the stage July 26, will be among more than 100 acts, including New York rapper A$AP Rocky and pop duo The Chainsmokers.
Day passes for the show, which run as high as 200 euros, or about $225, have sold out.
Goldman Sachs recently relaxed its dress code, but it’s still a far cry from the festival, where outfits are often scant to non-existent.
Festivalgoers are far more likely to be discussing EDM and PLUR — ravespeak for Peace, Love, Unity and Respect — than EBITDA or EPS.
“We are…The People of Tomorrow,” according to the festival’s website. “We believe in enjoying life to the fullest without having to compromise everything. We are responsible for the generation of tomorrow and respect each other and Mother Nature.”
A Goldman spokesman declined to comment.
