Fresh off a truly haunted Halloween night, Basic NYC’s Sleepy & Boo return to wreak more havoc at Cielo this Friday, November 12th. It’s the fifth edition of their own Sleepy & Boo + Friends night at the celebrated Meatpacking District nightclub, and they’re ready to drop more twisted Big Apple grooves with a new lineup of guest DJs joining them in the booth. Once again, Cielo is offering free entry before midnight to any guest who signs up at rsvp@basicnyc.com. It’s the perfect way to check out some of New York’s best DJ talent in one of the world’s best DJ venues .
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, as well as numerous opening sets at Pacha, Santos Party House and Cielo to name a few venues.. 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.
Joining Sleepy & Boo on this night is the Undulate Recordings duo of Deepspell and Billy Disciple. Both have played at many past Basic NYC events, and this will be their second time appearing at Cielo. As producers, the duo have released as the White Ladies and as individuals, with numerous releases on New York’s NOSI Music. Warming the party up, and making his Cielo debut on the night, will be Birthday boy Pete Schwinge. Schwinge is a veteran in New York’s dance music community, and has just launched a new production alias as Shans and Schwinge.
We’ll also be celebrating a birthday for our good friend Kim May at the party, and to help with the festivities, Cielo will be providing the bubbly for a free champagne toast at midnight for our friends. With free entry before midnight on the Basic NYC guest list, multiple birthdays, and a top-shelf lineup of New York’s underground talent, we’re ready for the November edition of Sleepy & Boo + Friends at Cielo.
