Don't know about you, but I think it's about some time for secular fun. The Gregorian Calendar is most helpful for marking that one day when the entire globe decides that they will share 24 hours of reverie. Santos Party House put their weight on it, bringing in the infamous Made Event posse who engineer some of the city's most incredible nights, including the brilliant Respect residency in the summer of 2008. They've put together a wicked line-up to ring in the New Year in the spirit of unadulterated mirth.

LEE BURRIDGE

Many producer's are also disc jockeys and vice versa, but few have managed to excel at both roles with the same finesse as Lee Burridge. Beginning as a mobile disco operator in Great Britain, the early 90's saw his move to Hong Kong where his talent became a galvanizing force for the newborn disco scene. With a foundation in acid house that permeates throughout his eyebrow-raising brand of minimal techno, his original mixes and compositions are keystones for dance music aficionados, as is his Almost Anonymous imprint. A former member of the Tyrant Sound System with DJ Sasha and Craig Richards, Burridge has performed to unruly audiences in every corner of the world and on stage at Burning Man, the San Francisco Love Parade and Save The Cannibals. He has been on DJ Magazine's prestigious top 100 list consecutively since 1999. He told ClubPlanet what distinguished him from other Dj's....

Why do so many DJs look like they aren't having a good time? It's like they're made out of cardboard. This music is amazing. This job isn't a job. We can stay up late and even if you're a butt-ugly DJ, girls seem to pay attention to you. I guess that going out and dancing to music has always been a lot of fun for me and I find it very difficult to stand still when there's a track playing that I like, and I like all the tracks I play!

MIKE KHOURY

Fiona Walsh of Clubbers Guide Ireland recently sat down with Lee to chat about his New Year's Eve event at Santos...

Lee Burridge has been touring and traveling the world as a DJ for 26 years and shows no signs of slowing down. CGI caught up with him before his big NYE Club gig at Santos Party House in NYC.

Fiona: You’re in New York for the MADE EVENT New Year’s Eve gig at Santos Party House – are you excited about that gig? Have you played in New York on NYE before?

Lee: I'm really excited. New York always gets that same flutter of excitement going every time I visit. I think this is actually the first time I've done New Year's Eve. It's going to be good to spend it with friends and I hear Santos Party house is wicked.

Fiona: If you weren’t working on NYE – what would you be doing?

Lee: Breaking in to peoples houses or dancing.

OPEN tomorrow night with A-Trak, Behrouz on Saturday

OPEN with The Abstract, A-Trak, Dj Gravy, Micro Don and Max Glazer
Hosted by Va$htie
Friday December 18, 2009
10:00 PM 21+

Like the Tom Cruise in the Mission Impossible train scene, the OPEN party just refuses to fall off. Kamaal The Abstract hits the decks like a linebacker tackling a china display, rendering the scene an unrecognizable mass of ecstatic vibes. With foundation of hip-hop, soul and reggae that journeys into house, disco, jazz, and pop, the party is an accurate sonic depiction of the New York City culture.

This week we have A-Trak, his feet firmly planted both in electro and hip-hop, standing as one of the final guardians of turntablism for his generation. With a discography that boasts production for Lupe Fiasco and Kid Sister as well as too-famous-to-be-remix tracks for MSTRKRFT and Boys Noize, he has served as a human melting pot for multiple urban styles. Trivia junkies might want to note that he holds the record for youngest DMC World Champion (age 15), and that he is the younger brother of David Macklovitch (Chromeo) with whom he runs the Audio Research label.

“We realized that Saturday had fallen off the menu for a lot of people, and that’s just a waste of a night off,” says Rob.

We're taking back Saturday nights.,” says Benny.Set at Santos Party House – one of the city’s best dance-friendly venues with a custom sound system that defies ear fatigue – DHT will bring the focus back to you, your friends and the music.

A very BOYS NOIZE Halloween tomorrow night with FIXED, POCKETKNIFE, C'MISH and DON VU

BOYS NOISE with resident JDH, Pockenife, C'mish and Don VU
October 31, 2009 10:00 PM
[ADVANCE TICKETS SOLD OUT. TICKETS AVAILABLE WHEN DOORS OPEN.]


BOYS NOIZE

European techno often carries a benign and effete stigma, but musical prodigy and entrepreneur Alex Ridha , or BOYS NOIZE to you, presents dense and blisteringly percussive motifs that are meant to stimulate the mind and dancing shoe. Bolstered by his training as a pianist and percussionist, Boys Noize has broken from the confines of Berlin electro and has rapidly burst onto the international scene with his underground club appeal and his flair for the remix, not to mention the love he’s receiving from other mix virtuosos like Erol Alkan and A-Trak as they mine his tracks in tribute. His new album Power is out today, with the lead-off single “Starter” trailblazing the internet and driving beat junkies to any dancefloor he touches.

The student of Berlin electro cult figure D.I.M., Ridha was a mere 24 years old when his first LP Oi Oi Oi saw worldwide release in 2007. His timing could not have been better, as his remixes for Bloc Party’s “Banquet” and Kaiser Chiefs “Every Day I Love You Less and Less” were winning over the most influential club DJ’s with internet access. Aside from his own Boysnoize record lable, his material has been published by DJ Hell’s Deejay Gigolos label, Tiga’s Turbo Recordings label and Kitsuné Music. His track “& Down” was featured in the Grand Theft Auto IV (which set record debut sales). He has traded off remixes with other composer/mixers including SebastiAn, Justice and Surkin to name a few. As Tiga puts it, “For most of the past 2 years, Boys Noize records have saved by life as a DJ.”

On Halloween 2009, Boys Noize will be summoning the most unholy of spirits via Santos Party House’s massive soundsystem, wringing all the energy he can out of every woofer and tweeter. Joining him will be FIXED party architects JDH and Dave P who consistently satisfy the most discerning of electro fiends. Your best bet is to dress up as someone who can rock.

Braxe scored a major hit in 1998 with "Music Sounds Better With You," a track co-written with Thomas Bangalter (of Daft Punk) and Benjamin Diamond under the name Stardust that reached number one on the United States Dance chart. He later formed Vulture Music, and continued to release singles under its imprint, including 2004's hit, "Rubicon". Recently he has become an in-demand remixer, contributing remixes to Goldfrapp, Röyksopp, Test Icicles, Annie, Shakedown, Kylie Minogue and Justice. Not to mention his successful collaborations with Kris Menace ("Lumberjack") and Fred Falke (“Palladium”).

HUMAN LIFE
Human Life, the musical project from Matt Wasley, Rachael Starr and Joshua Collins has created quite a buzz over the past year...
They all produce music. They all DJ. And they all sing (Matt and Rachael in the studio, Josh in the shower.) This talented trio hails from Los Angeles, California. There Human Life is part of a new breed of producers and DJs, inspired as much by sunshine and beaches as they are by the music heard coming from dark corners in downtown warehouses. Stealing their favorite elements (they’re not giving them back) from dance, indie rock, and global pop, HUMAN LIFE celebrates just that with cuts that range from dreamy pop to dancefloor storms. HUMAN LIFE looks to an edgy future while nodding to their influences from the past (Howard Jones, Mr. Fingers, Genesis,) and today (Switch and Daft Punk.)
