After two previous nights of packed dancefloors, lines down Little West 12th Street, and top-notch music from start to finish, Sleepy & Boo are returning to Cielo for the third installment of their own “Sleepy & Boo + friends” party on Friday, October 8th. Not only will the Basic NYC residents be dropping another prime-time set of cutting edge dance music, but they’ll also be celebrating the official birthday bash for S&B’s own Begoña (aka Boo). And to add to the festivities, this Friday’s party also marks the launch of Sleepy & Boo + friends as a new monthly Friday event at Cielo. Joining them on the night will be Global Frequencies resident Holosound, who’ll be marking his Cielo debut with a set of his own deep and driving techy grooves. Mike Murphy returns to Sleepy & Boo + friends to drop another warm-up set, after his August B-Day bash debut. Once again, Cielo is offering free entry before midnight to everyone who RSVPs on Sleepy & Boo’s list.
For over six years, Sleepy & Boo have been an integral part of New York’s electronic music and nightlife culture. They are the co-founders of Basic NYC, which has served as their platform for presenting international guest DJs in New York, with a long-running Saturday night residency at the Sullivan Room. The event was named New York’s “Best Dance Party” by New York magazine in 2009, and has featured a breathtaking range of DJs, covering the full spectrum of house and techno. As the residents, Sleepy & Boo are well known for setting the musical mood with their opening and closing sets, complimenting the headliners and adding their own musical twist to the night.
But Sleepy & Boo’s range as DJs extends far beyond their own residency. They are regularly asked to DJ at many of New York’s top nightclubs and electronic music events, and work closely with all the city’s leading production groups. They’ve dropped mesmerizing sets at events as diverse as the Electric Zoo Festival (both editions), Ibiza’s legendary Space terrace, numerous opening sets at Pacha, and last year’s sold-out Terminal 5 deadmau5 appearance. From deep house to tough techno, Sleepy & Boo’s expansive, genre-crossing sets feature the best labels, sounds and producers creating the cutting-edge dance music of the moment.
This event features free entry before midnight on Sleepy & Boo’s guest list, and a special champagne toast at 12am for the birthday celebration. Sleepy & Boo have already had a busy Fall, and with a jam-packed October and November schedule, this set will be one of their highlights. Cielo is one the world’s greatest nightclubs, and Sleepy & Boo are proud to have this opportunity to feature some of the Big Apple’s homegrown DJ talent performing on the club’s revered Funktion One sound system..
