Top Promoters in the NYC Deep House Scene

[kayotv]

I've been gone for a minute, still I was wondering who are the top promoters or even up n coming promoters in the game now?

Where's Marcus Rice, Spider, Steve etc... Has the game here in NYC changed that much?

I am on Spider's list.I get blasts from him often.

[Long Island Head]

IMO Robbie's the hardest working promoter in the game.

he works hard, but there are many others also doing the damn thang!!!

[Myron]

Good question. Or better question, who are the next generation of Deep House promoters? Have they even emerged yet?

[Pang]

Red

[kayotv]

he works hard, but there are many others also doing the damn thang!!!

who and where are they? Don't let me get my promotions! Cause I really don't have the time right now. So, really who's bringing it? Where are the promoters that would stick a flyer in your face damn near every party you went to.

How come the non-NYCers are more willing to answer this question than the NYCers? :conf44:

U know why ...stop asking dumbazz questions U know the answer to...

cmon.... its the same in Bmore,Chi, and Kalamazoo.

[Sal Paradise]

Red & SilverBull are the two that come to my mind. But silver only seems to have one foot in this scene. But yeah as everyone is sayin, Red is killing it. How about Bedford Hills crew, they are sort of promoters. Also I can't give a name but there seems to be an entire little circuit of deep house Japanes parties that do stuff stuff around town.

See I think Silverbull is more into the scene more than people give him credit for. It's just that his vision of the scene is broader than "NYC Deep House." Is a broader view of the scene the wave of the future for promoters?

You're right about the Japanese circuit which is invisible to some of us because we aren't Japanese. Good answer, by the way.

[Myron]

Yeah, u do.... or you would not have asked it.

Then what do you think is my answer, I'll either confirm it or deny it (and I might even give an explanation if I feel like it).

You are taking this wayyy too seriously. You probably know more than I do about the state of the NYC Deep House Music scene these days and I live here. I'm not trying to stoke any fires. I purposely try to stay ignorant of the politics of the NYC scene. I was just making an observation, nothing more. My other posts in this thread reflect my honest opinion regarding this topic. If you want to go beyond the surface, what I really want to know, who are doing things in NYC within the broadly defined NYC Deep House scene that are interesting and different?

Really you are looking for conflict where it really doesn't exist.

[Sal Paradise]

ahhhah ha ha at Blakes Japanes fettish.

They are Japanes kids. I'd say between the ages of 24 and 35. If your really interested I could comb through my myspace friends. Some are on there. But there seems to be at least a handful and they book some dj's from the scene. Brian Coxx just spun for a japenes party this past Friday at the vault (downstairs of element of houston). Pang should know a little about this as well. The Shanti party seems to have some of that crowd.

I'm uderstanding how Silverbull does his thang kats needs to play attention to this youngblood he going to be big and I don't even know him persoanlly. Haven’t anybody noticed how inquisitive he is in terms of dancemusc and culture pre the time he was able to hang out .

madd notes are being taken !

[yodvibes]

Esteban and Justin Imperiale from Cabana Recordings - always hustling and promoting not just partys but DJ's who really dont get too many opportunities to play out.

Silverbull - Stimulus Response - Promotes specific events that cover the whole spectrum of house

Duran Tariq and Barry B - Elevation is a great party. ask anyone who has attended on of there functions.

Neetra, Sweet and Lou Alvarez - Humble Beginings - monthly party thats featured a whos who list of djs. definitely one to check out.

Kris Flowers and Eddie Nicolas - ThinkSoul presents Demonstrations in New Sounds - Great after work party on Mondays that gives both DJs, Producers and Artisits a chance to promote their music.

[liL Ray]

Brian Coxx just spun for a japenes party this past Friday at the vault (downstairs of element of houston). Pang should know a little about this as well. yeah Ali Coleman promotes that party

[Sal Paradise]

yeah. I went for a minute, was enough people to build a vibe and they had a pretty nice and mixed up crowd.

I unfortuantely have never had an opportunity to check this party out. .

[12th house]

it's funny but there are guys who promote to a younger, more mainstream (debateable) crowd who are bringing in guys like Dennis Ferrer, Martinez Brothers, etc. (e.g. hip with the soulful and deep crowds) with mailing lists in the 10,000s deep and no one even mentions them! Fast and Binoy, for starters. Anyway, just because you don't see them doesn't mean they don't exist ;)

[liL Ray]

Anyway, just because you don't see them doesn't mean they don't exist ;)I think that was the reason for the topic....it would be nice if you could enlighten the topic starter.

happy birthday, by the way.

[yodvibes]

Binoy's doing it on Dean's strength and his push. Prior to Dean going to Cielo they never pushed the deep house scene.

[RAS]

So, are they creating the dance circles all over the place?

Getting out of STFU mode.

So who are these promoters besides Fast and Binoy (never heard of them), whom you just mentioned? I assume that most haven't mentioned them because they are ignorant of them (I know I'm certainly ignorant of them and that's no lie).

[liL Ray]

Also, Benny Soto has a very loyal following...and he is a great person.

absalutely. I was being very broad. Maybe the better way to put it is they are seprate from this scene. But both the world you speak and the kind of dayglo hipster hiphopers both seem to be more interested in deeper house and classics than before. AS in the records are getting plays, they just have no clue about langstons, shelter, or . . .. . . .

[Sal Paradise]

So, are they creating the dance circles all over the place?

no. I think this really ony comes from youngins into the "breakin"/dancer culture. Not the party one.

[yodvibes]

Binoys one of the main promoters for Deko Lounge in NJ. Lately over the past 2 years, they've reached out and have booked the Martinez Brothers, Dennis Ferrer, Louie Vega, Roger Sanchez, Todd Terry, Kenny Dope, etc. They also book a lot of the more main stream DJs as well. I'd say in a four week month, three of them would be one of the more main stream DJs.

[12th house]

Also, Benny Soto has a very loyal following...and he is a great person.

great call, and another guy who promotes a VARIETY of DJs, sounds, scenes, from 718 Sessions to some serious touring jocks playing on Thursdays at the Dance. Here. Now. party he does with Rob Fernandez at Cielo. Benny is a very special promoter in my eyes because he has a good reputation in a variety of scenes and can help facilitate some of that cross-pollination because of his reach.

Fast promotes Boris mainly, but he is a local promoter who works with local talent (Boris is, after all, a local) and has made a big name for himself doing just that. Binoy promotes a lot of events at Deko in New Jersey which brings in a variety of jocks that appeal to the deep and soulful scene, but are also international: Dennis Ferrer, Roger Sanchez, etc.

I'd have to think some more to come up with others, but not sure if this thread was about promoters in general or who specifically work in the deep/soulful scene.

(and thanks for the b'day wishes Ray)

No clue or no interest? And also why they has to be such a division between what's considered the "NYC Deep House scene" and what's outside of it. Isn't that division artificial or only a division that exists in the eyes of old schoolers (now I'm stirring the pot :grinyes:)?

I think most youngsters are still more or less interested in partying w/each other. I don't think it's some grand division, it's just what the reality is when you look around. Doesn't mean there is anything preventing bridges from happening, just means as of now there arn't very many.

yup, I agree with this observation. was just noticing that the deep house sweatbox party in a non-club environment (aka the 98 Mott St/Temple Party thread from yesterday) is cyclical: it comes and goes but NEVER dies, there are just more or less people into that scene/music/crowd.

Of course you have Shelter but I'd say that's in a class of its own. There will always be Shelter fans and the regulars are so loyal that it has enjoyed a long life, even in its downturns.

Just anecdotal observations on message boards (not this one; boards that cater to more mainstream or let's say "different" styles of house music) shows that there is some renewed interest from the youngins in terms of the deep house sound. I have some (young) friends who just discovered Roots like it's the hottest thing since sliced bread! They literally JUST got on to it...

So anyway, my observation out of all of that is "it's cyclical."

[D J 1 3 8]

when you were 23, were you really trying to hang out at parties where the median age was 38?

Young kids need their own scene. NY deep house crowd is simply too old for them, and rightly so.

NY Deep house scene just naturally separated itslef IMO cuz we're the only old ass mofos who didn't view clubbing as simply a phase of our 20s. For us, it's a lifestyle (!). But our tastes are different as a result of our age.

I really got that when looking at the photo gallery of OONHP the other day. Most youngins would never set foot in the club dressed like that, looking like that. Just observations, not my personal opinion, so don't shoot!

that said, people who like the NY Deep house lifestyle scene will come to it, regardless if they are old or young, and I saw some youngins in the OONHP photo gallery as well. I think we (generally speaking but 138, you & I are pretty much from the same "generation" as far as come-uppance in the club scene goes) grew up WITH the scene, and now we are old and there is a greater percentage of people in today's deep scene who are from that sort of Golden Time when you either went to the Loft or Garage or knew someone who did. After that, you are third gen and far more removed from the roots of what still lives on as NYC's "deep house scene."

[D J 1 3 8]

people who like the NY Deep house lifestyle scene will come to it, regardless if they are old or young

true. and they do. but they make up a small percentage, and they are not shifting the median age by very much. They are in to the music enough to disregard the age factor. most club goers in their 20s are about the party. they want to get drunk and get laid, and not necessarily by someone who is 42. So there is no reason why they shouldn't have their own scene.

[D J 1 3 8]

Also, I think we easily forget that the house music of our youth was made for people ON DRUGS ("Outta Limits", anybody?)

Very little of the music played at deep house parties caters to the drug users, which is another reason why it ain't that popular.

O hipsterville is now on the house tip.

Last hipster house party I went to it's ALL they played. Ha ha, guy even played the bad mix of Video Crash. Lame Asian girls bouncing up and down like they knew the music (they didn’t), stupid white dudes spilling beer everywhere. Bad minimal dancing from people that really didn’t care what was being played, and DJs’ programming was so wrong, so uneducated about how to really play house, it made me almost want to never hear it again.

And of course, that feeling of entitlement, like theses guys invented the shit and it wouldn’t exist if they hadn’t.

while I agree that many are newbies, the disco/house parties that you hardly hear about are some of the best jams... Studio B, 205 club, APT, even Richie's aka the donger's party in williamsburgh at the Lucky Cat this past weekend was packed with the local white kids dancing NONSTOP to disco and BUYING DRINKS. Everyone enjoying the music and having fun.

If you ask me that's the goal of any party, doesn't matter who is dancing, what they dress like, or if they spill drinks or whether or not they know the music.

Both the deep house scene and the disco hipster scene are interconnected, shit even Mancuso's Loft party had a nice mix of old school and new, and that's what made it great.

Everyone enjoying the music and having fun.

If you ask me that's the goal of any party, doesn't matter who is dancing, what they dress like, or if they spill drinks or whether or not they know the music.

Both the deep house scene and the disco hipster scene are interconnected, shit even Mancuso's Loft party had a nice mix of old school and new, and that's what made it great.

Thank you. This division thing is getting old and is very artificial. While I do agree that younger people do their own thing that's out of sight for many of us, there is still some overlap and the overlap should be acknowledged and appluded.

I actually tried to do a party there (well at least my quasi-manager did) and they where all about hipster this and that. But, oh they wanted the Martinez Brothers to play.

When the meeting was over my quasi-manager was like, "dude thats not your vibe, they want drug addicts and bad mash-ups and freaks." "I think it'd be a bad move on your part." I was like "word."

But, drrtyny is right who gives a f what the crowd looks like or how they dance its all about having a good time right?

oh well

just depends what's going on. My man Rocktakon who has just started posting here does a great party downstairs every couple of months or so at 205 called BIG FUN with his dude Unemployed Lloyd. They are playing for these kids but they do it right, they can really play. And there is nothing Ironic about there approach at all. We can go next time it happens if your curiouse.

Too man... oopps, wrong message board

Let me try again, the "hipsters" are the young people who are continuing a variation of this scene, we have to deal with it.

YUP..There's plenty of overlap, shit many of the djs who play at these parties are on this very board. Darshan Jesrani, Benguin etc all play house music. All the dj's in this scene love deep house, there's just too much good music out there like nudisco, electro, tech and classics to just listen to "deep house" all night.

And those sounds aren't too far from "Deep House," at least to my ears.

[silverbull]

See I think Silverbull is more into the scene more than people give him credit for. It's just that his vision of the scene is broader than "NYC Deep House." Is a broader view of the scene the wave of the future for promoters?


I'm uderstanding how Silverbull does his thang kats needs to play attention to this youngblood he going to be big and I don't even know him persoanlly. Haven’t anybody noticed how inquisitive he is in terms of dancemusc and culture pre the time he was able to hang out .

madd notes are being taken !




Silverbull - Stimulus Response - Promotes specific events that cover the whole spectrum of house.

Thanks for the words guys i just love so many different styles of music and try to make whatever events im a part of reflect that. I mean Stimulus Response at Pacha monthly is my baby i love that party and the djs Keith Blackstone, Lola, Urban Relief Project to death. Aside from that at other venues i try to mixmatch sounds and djs i like and think would mesh well.

Anyone knows anywhere I could hear his sets online or at least know where there is a schedule of his upcoming gigs? I never heard of the guy until now. My initial and continued interest in this thread is to learn of DJs and events that I wasn't aware of or had limited awareness of and my initial questioning was about trying to bring that about (I don't even know why I had to say that but I guess a nerve was touched, so I admit it).

So he made a name as a Hipster/Blipster, that doesn't mean he should be dismissed if he could bring the goods, particularly if the sound fits. Another guy in that scene that people shouldn't sleep is Duane Harriott, formerly of Negroclash, currently spinning at APT, usually on the first Friday of the month. He also brings in some nice guests. He's bringing in Theo Parrish on March 7, next Friday. Yay!!!!

I really need to learn more about these satellite scenes because I'm not really up on the locals within these scenes for reasons that are really meaningless in the long run. :)

Thanks Sal. I'm trying to play the video but I was having a hard time. My connection is working better today so I'm going to try again.
