Last Saturday, Club Infinity hit the top floor of Santos Party House for their second edition of bass-driven musical talent and merriment. Carrying on the festivities that had begun with HARD on Governor’s Island earlier that evening, heat stricken music lovers came flooding in to revel in some heavy beats and cranked up air conditioning.
Kicking off the night’s event was Brooklyn’s own Dre Skull who warmed up the dance floor, building momentum to carry the crowd into Dave Nada’s set of “Moombahton” tunes. While most dance music producers take tunes and speed them up in their sets, Moonbahton essentially takes Dutch house and screws it down to create an almost reggaeton inspired sound. While this might sound strange in words, the aural translation is anything but, as evidenced by the incredible reception from the packed dancefloor. Popular tracks like The Crystal Method’s “Block Rockin’ Beats” and A-Trak’s remix of the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s “Head Will Roll” were reworked and slowed to 110bpm, blending seamlessly in to one another to create a fluid yet eclectic set of dance music.
Hitting the decks after Dave Nada was Kingdom, bringing in more Latin and Hip-Hop inspired rhythms to his set. After he started breaking into Juke tunes at around 3am, pure madness broke out as the stage suddenly became an impromptu block party, with a crew of dancers breaking out some serious footwork and party-goers in full costume pumping their fists and busting moves. Finally, Los Angeles’ Nguzunguzu made an appearance as a surprise guest after spinning at HARD earlier that evening, taking over Santos just as the party hit it’s peak at around 4am. With this caliber line-up, special guests, and energy from the crowd, we look forward to seeing what Club Infinity will bring us next time around!
