Ace Hotel New York and Second World Productions are proud to announce “1978,” a Spring series celebrating the genesis and evolution of dance and DJ culture. Resident Selectress Iriela, New York based international DJ and producer will bang the party alongside an all star lineup of her friends from around the world! On April 13, she welcomes guest Yukiko from Chicago.
1978 was born out of Selectress Iriela’s record collection orbiting this magical year, sure enough on the back of her “Special Selections,” in small print would be the year: 1978. This epicenter of a sound still as fresh as the day the record was released inspired the series to launch in 2014 in Brooklyn bumping parties of dance floor revelry with guests ranging from Sal P of Liquid Liquid to Natasha Diggs, and the legendary BreakBeat Lou. Welcome to 1978 – that sweet spot where everything from rare grooves, to disco and the advent of hip-hop, house music and club culture all intersect on the dancefloor!
Upcoming Spring 1978 party: Saturday May 18 and Saturday June 29
