Basic NYC’s Saturdays at the Sullivan Room are best known for bringing top-tier international talent DJs to the club’s intimate dancefloor and pumping sound system. But that doesn’t mean that the hometown talent doesn’t get a chance to shine at Sully. That’s the concept behind “Locals: NYC”, which debuts at the Sullivan Room on Saturday, December 4th, with a lineup entirely devoted to the local DJs and artists who are the lifeblood of New York’s dance music scene.
The Big Apple’s dance music culture spans a wide range of sounds, artists and venues, and we’ll be featuring just a glimpse of what New York’s local scene has to offer on the 4th. Some are regular guests at Basic NYC; some are new artists making their debut.
The lineup includes AB Logic and Brian Anderson from the Smoke City and 1200 Trax labels, who have played many Basic NYC nights in the past alongside guests like Derrick Carter and Mark Farina. Wobble Music’s Arana makes his return to Basic NYC; recently he’s been hosting and playing at his own Wobble monthly at Cielo. George Quest and Tiho from the United Freakz will be closing the party out with their own set of deep and groove-heavy house. Dali from Groove Therapy Management returns to Sully after an opening set alongside DJ Dan in November. Tristan Dominguez makes his Basic NYC debut with an opening set of deep techno; he’s recently been making the rounds at venues like Bar 13 and La Vie. Finally, Brooklyn’s Troia celebrates his birthday on the night with a set on the decks.
While local DJs are always a part of every Basic NYC night at the Sullivan Room, we’re excited to be able to devote a whole night this lineup of Big Apple talent. This event is a great way to kick off December at Sully, which features Sergei’s B-Day celebration with special guest Derrick May on December 11th, and a Basic NYC holiday bash with Satoshi Tomiie on December 18th.
