Party."
Residents DJ Chris Annibell and percussionist Amon,
along with legendary music and lifestyle marketing
agency Giant Step, welcome NZ-Japanese musician/producer
Mark De Clive-Lowe to the stage. Known around the
world as a devastating live performer, De Clive-Lowe
creates in real-time, studio productions and remixes
on stage from scratch, using drum machines, keyboards
and effects. Accompanied by surprise singers and musicians,
his show is nothing less than inspirational. As well
as performances at clubs, festivals and parties worldwide,
he’s recorded on over 200 releases for Masters
At Work, Verve and Impulse Records; collaborating
with as diverse a range of artists as Jody Watley,
Omar, Bugz in the Attic, Dego (4Hero), percussionist
Sammy Figueroa (Miles Davis), bass player Pino Palladino
(D’Angelo/John Mayer), DJ Spinna, Leon Ware,
Dame Shirley Bassey and the list goes on. MdCL is
one of the most innovative producers and live performers
you'll find anywhere.
Rounding out the bill is Brooklyn's own DJ OP!. Known
in NYC and around the globe as a purveyor of all things
soulful, this talented DJ and tastemaker can hang
on just about any dance floor; from hip hop, house,
classics to future soul, OP! can finesse them all,
adopting musical diversity and focusing it into a
beautifully cohesive vibe. Through his work with Cornerstone
Promotions, Suite903.com and RawFusion NYC, OP! has
helped shine a light on underground, global soul and
continues to push for its relevance on the world stage.
Together, they will infuse Brooklyn's dance community
with West London Broken Beats, Latin Grooves, Global
House, Philly Soul, Jazz and African Polyrhythms;
a night geared towards honoring the cultural landscape
of Gowanus, Brooklyn and to transcend the confines
of traditional clubs.
Help us celebrate the return of sun filled days and
honey moon nights at our first ever Sunset Soiree.
Doors open at 9pm.
