Muscle Memory

12 listings in 5 named rooms, over the last three years

Muscle Memory is the NYC DJ & production duo of Steven Reker and Michael Tapper. Their DJ sets weave together rarities, classics, and new sounds, heavy on early Chicago House, New York Garage, Italo, and post-punk, keeping dance floors sexy & buoyant in clubs like Nightmoves, Public Records, and Good Room. Their own productions draw from the same influences and have featured remixes from such heavy hitters as Justin Strauss, System Olympia, Paula Tape, Eli Escobar, and the Juan MacLean.

Their rooms

One tick a night, on the one axis this page has — Aug 2023, where the listings start, to Jan 2027, the last night anybody has announced. The shaded end has not happened yet.

Aug 2023Jan 2027

Once each: Eavesdrop, Good Room and Good Bar. One of the 12 listings never named a room, and is not counted as one.

Who they play with

Counted from the bills themselves, over bills of twelve names or fewer. A pair's count includes a night that is announced and not yet played; where there is one, the row says when.

The nights, the rooms and the bills are the listings themselves. The biography and the photograph are Resident Advisor's. Nothing on this page was written for it.
