In the Lifshitz black brane geometry of the Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory, we clarify thermodynamics and show that the dual theory following the gauge/gravity duality is described by a non-relativistic medium with an equation state parameter z/2. In this background, the binding energy and drag force of particles or monopoles are investigated with an F1- or a D1-string respectively. Moreover, the electric DC conductivity carried by an impurity or the same matter fluctuation is holographically investigated in the hydrodynamic limit. Depending on the charge carrier, the DC conductivity shows a totally different behavior.
