Camp Debonair IV

Camp Debonair returns for our fourth rendition of the now-and-again jam that’s conjuring up dancefloor magic around Brooklyn. This time we’re moving to a spacious loft space on North 6th street in Williamsburg BK. More importantly, we’ll be playing humble hosts to …the legendary rare-groove DJ Peter Reyes from Newark, NJ! We’ll be covering a fair amount of ground as it’s been a handful of lunar cycles since Camp has gathered. Expect a taste of the classics and keep an open mind for the fringes of modern soul, deep disco, blissed-out boogie and other sounds fitting the Camp party ethos.

RSVP to CampDebonair [at] gmail [dot] com
FREE before midnight / $5 after … full cash-only bar …. going LATE

Cocktail Hour Starts at 10pm.

Specialty home-brewed beers will be provided by the trusted folks at Dude Brew (1-800-DUDE-BREW). Limited quantities will be available on the earlier side of things.

Featuring:

Peter Reyes (Havana Soul)
Stegs (Vietcong Disco)
Tackleberry (A Downtown Affair)
Mike Mcgill (A Downtown Affair)

A special counselors get-together will be aired on A Downtown Affair on 89.1FM / wnyu.org on Friday the 27th; tune in for a special preview from the four of us mixing live from 10:30pm-1:00am.

Stepping into the Fog @ Tandem – Sat. 3/26

Tackleberry and I are delighted to be taking over our good friend Mikie Lixxx’s residency Bionic Boogie while he’s out on the West Coast. Mikie’s been on the program a few times over the past twelve months, and his shindig at Tandem is always blasting off – sometimes with digital fireworks, and always surefire dance floor pleasure. It’s been a few months since we’ve played out so we’ll be pulling records accordingly, and keeping in tune with his uptempo, party-centric vibe.

Come by next Saturday night @ Tandem in Bushwick Brooklyn (236 Troutman Street). It’s a 10pm start and we’ll be going ’til close in the back, with the fog and full club stereo!!!

A Downtown Affair 3YR Anniversary

With just over three years under our belts, we’re marking the occasion this Saturday with a special event at The Counting Room in Williamsburg. Mike and I will be digging out some staples for this one, so please join us as we celebrate the beginning of our fourth year on the air!

Camp Debonair: Summer Dreams



Coming up this Saturday, we’ve got our 3rd night of Camp Debonair with Stegs of Vietcong Disco. Expect selections mapped across the legacy of specialty dance music with a cool-minded concern for the tasteful, genteel and all encompassing SOFT TOUCH in the night’s programming.

We’ll be soundtracking the Cocktail Hour welcome from 10-11 before settling in. This one’s a spe…cial one as it’s Mike’s Birthday and we’ll be toasting him with some seriously Gentleman cuts throughout the night. And it’s Frantz Barosy’s birthday too- he’ll be stopping by with some records to complement the vibe.

The only parent-approved Get Down In Town. Come Join us…
