PAWSA Scorpios Mykonos: when the groove speaks for itself
PAWSA took the Scorpios Mykonos Terrace from golden hour to midnight alongside Avangart Tabldot. No hype. No theatrics. Just the kind of tech house set that builds slowly, locks you in, and doesn’t let go until the last track. The PAWSA Scorpios Mykonos night was sold out well before the day arrived — which, if you know PAWSA, should surprise no one.
PAWSA Scorpios Mykonos: the man behind the music
David Esekhile — known professionally as PAWSA — is one of the most consistent forces in the UK electronic music scene. Born in London in 1992, he started DJing in 2013 and built his reputation the old-fashioned way: quality records, well-crafted sets, and zero shortcuts.
In 2015, he co-founded Solid Grooves Records alongside fellow producer Michael Bibi. The label became one of the defining imprints of the modern tech house movement, hosting artists like Dennis Cruz, ANOTR, and Bassel Darwish. Furthermore, PAWSA launched his own imprint, PAWZ, in 2017 — giving him a space for tracks that pushed beyond the Solid Grooves template.
The accolades followed naturally. In 2021, DJ Mag named him Best Producer at the Best of Britain awards. Mixmag ranked him #19 among the producers who defined 2024. His track “Dirty Cash (Money Talks)” hit 56.9 million Spotify streams by year end. His 2025 cut “DOUBLE C” landed on the official F1: The Movie soundtrack. In 2026, DJ Mag Top 100 placed him at #69 — and rising.
His sound is hard to fake. Chunky beats, rolling basslines, energetic vocal samples, and a groove that feels classic without sounding dated. As DJ Mag put it, PAWSA plays “inventive tech house with an old-school vibe.” That’s not a throwback. That’s a standard.
Why Scorpios and PAWSA are a natural match
Scorpios runs in the 110-122 BPM melodic and afro house corridor. PAWSA brings something with a little more weight — driving tech house that hits the dancefloor hard but never loses its musicality. The combination works because both share the same underlying philosophy: substance over spectacle.
Scorpios doesn’t book names for the sake of names. PAWSA doesn’t play to impress. On 19 July, the Terrace got exactly what that combination produces — a night that moved from atmosphere to energy to something close to euphoria, with the Aegean as a backdrop and a crowd that came specifically for this.
The Ride to Scorpios, done right
Getting to Scorpios from Mykonos Town in peak July is its own challenge. The roads south are slow, taxis are scarce, and arriving hot and tired before a night like this is not the move. However, there is a better option — and it’s the same one PAWSA himself chose.
Don Blue Yachting handled the private sea transfer for PAWSA and his team to and from Scorpios. It’s not the first time. Don Blue has become the go-to transfer for artists and celebrities arriving at Mykonos venues by sea — a consistent choice by people who know the island and have options.
The reason is straightforward. A private boat from Ornos dock reaches Paraga Beach in minutes. You arrive directly at the Scorpios dock, step off the water, and walk in. No traffic, no parking, no sweating through an approach that the venue itself is trying to make feel effortless. The transfer matches the experience.
That same service is available to anyone. Therefore, whether you’re catching the next sold-out Scorpios night or planning an arrival that fits the standard of the evening, Don Blue Yachting’s VIP boat transfers run throughout the season. The experience doesn’t change based on who’s booking. The quality stays the same.
Book your private transfer to Scorpios and get there the way the headliners do.

PAWSA Scorpios Mykonos: Frequently Asked Questions
Who is PAWSA and why does his Scorpios Mykonos set matter?
PAWSA is a London-based DJ and producer, co-founder of Solid Grooves Records and one of the most respected names in tech house. His Scorpios Mykonos date on 19 July was sold out weeks before the night arrived. People didn’t book it because they were going to Scorpios anyway. They booked it because PAWSA was playing. That gap — between showing up and going specifically for someone — is the whole story.
What was the PAWSA Scorpios Mykonos lineup on July 19?
PAWSA headlined the Scorpios Terrace on Sunday 19 July 2026, alongside Avangart Tabldot. Sets ran from 5pm to midnight, following Scorpios’ signature format of building from sunset through the evening hours.
How do you get to Scorpios Mykonos without dealing with the summer traffic?
By private boat. Don Blue Yachting runs VIP sea transfers from Ornos dock directly to the Scorpios dock throughout the season. In peak July, the road to Paraga Beach can turn a short trip into a long one. The boat takes minutes and gets you there in a completely different state of mind.
Does Don Blue Yachting only do transfers for artists and celebrities?
Not at all. The same service that PAWSA and other Scorpios headliners use is available to any guest planning a night at the venue. The quality of the transfer doesn’t change based on who’s booking it. Don Blue Yachting runs private sea transfers for anyone who wants to arrive at Scorpios — or anywhere else on the Mykonos coastline — the right way.
