Thursday, October 29, we return to the skatepark with X CLUB.
There is perhaps no better act to bring back into Brooklyn’s favorite halfpipe than Aussie duo X CLUB. High-octane rollers paired with etherial, thoughtful songwriting have earned them a reputation for turning dance floors inside out.
Joining them is a line up of local heavy hitters, Michelle Kay making her long-awaited RAW CUTS return, and RAW CUTS debuts for Lana Vese and PAN!C ROOM’s duco b2b y2aura.
Importantly- this is meant to be something different during one of New York’s biggest party weeks. Not a Halloween party, a party before Halloween. No costumes here- just high energy selects in one of the best DIY venues in Brooklyn. You can trick or treat on the weekend. Thursday night is to lock in.
Location will be sent to ticket holders on the day of show.
See you in the half pipe.

the whole biography
The sound of X CLUB., the dance production duo of Ben Clarke and Jesse Morath, is not easily defined. Inspired by early 90s techno all the way through to future-facing drum’n’bass, X CLUB. has carved out a space entirely their own thanks to their authentic and eclectic take on dance music with serious consideration for underlying groove. Currently based in London, X CLUB. counts the likes of Steel City Dance Discs, Lobster Theremin and StayOnSight as homes for their releases already. The second half of 2022 will see the pair kick things into gear with a number of offerings before making their way back home for the summer festival circuit. September will see X CLUB. unleash their new EP 300 TOOLS FOR SUCCESS on Miley Serious’ 99cts Records, delivering four tracks full of pure groove and heavy hitting moments best served with a warning. Forthcoming projects on Tred’s label Global Amnesia and a return to Dance Discs are also on the horizon. The latter includes a feature from rising star Pretty Girl, the duo’s second foray into music videos, and ‘Say No More’ which has quickly become a go-to for label boss and friend Mall Grab in his own sets, igniting the “ID?”s across the digital realm. X CLUB.’s sets are at once precise and considered as they are unrelenting and propulsive. The pair opt to guide their audience on a dynamic, energetic and unpredictable ride, upping the intensity and chaos before reaching total dancefloor liberation. Quickly emerging from sharehouses in Meanjin/Brisbane and onto the international stage, X CLUB.’s buzz as one of the hottest dance acts to watch at home and abroad is the result of friendship, authenticity, and of course, hard n’ fast tracks. A key part of a burgeoning collective of artists in their home of Meanjin and around Australia each making their presence known on the international stage alongside Skin on Skin, JamesJamesJames, Mutant Joe, Crush3d, Juicy Romance, Pretty Girl and many more. They remain connected by a sense of family, humility and a desire to make dance music that makes you feel just as much as it makes you move. In no time at all, X CLUB. has been quick to make their mark as a duo with expansive, dynamic and deliberate sonic influences by ensuring this is embedded directly into their music. Fans can expect anything from a sombre and reflective vocal-driven trance track to allout techno assaults; drum’n’bass heaters to pensive and poignant introspection — all within the same record. X CLUB. finds its strength lies not only in this freedom from typical genre constraints, but their willingness to go where their songwriting takes them. ✯ London Based ✯ Hide The Junk - a record label by X CLUB. ✯EU/UK - katty@triangleagency.com ✯NA/SA - Joe@surefireagency.com ✯AU/ASIA - steel@proxyagency.coTheir RA profile lists Steel City Dance Discs and Poumpet Records.Recently at Nowadays, Brooklyn Army Terminal, Knockdown Center · often with 33Below, Sam Gellaitry, Sammy Virji, none of them here on Thursday
