Overview

After the overwhelming global success of "Do It To It", which boasts a jaw-dropping 16 billion streams, house music sensation ACRAZE is bringing his electrifying beats back to New York. Mark your calendars for a night of pure dance euphoria at the iconic Knockdown Center, Queens.

From his self-taught beginnings to the meteoric heights of dance music stardom, ACRAZE is the name on every festival-goer's lips. He's set the scene ablaze, from Miami’s Ultra Music Festival to Belgium’s Tomorrowland and beyond. Remember the sensation caused by "The Otherside" featuring Paige Cavell? Expect that energy amplified a hundredfold in a live setting.

Taking inspiration from heavyweights like DJ Snake and Skrillex, while also paying homage to versatile artists like Lady Gaga, ACRAZE's sound is both innovative and nostalgic. Dive into tracks like his fresh take on Lipps Inc.’s “Funky Town”, or lose yourself in the rhythm of "Take Me Away", sampling Natasha Bedingfield’s “Pocketful of Sunshine”. And let's not forget his most recent gem, “The Otherside”.

Accompanying him is Westend, a standout name in the tech-house circuit. Hailing from New York City, Westend has carved a niche for himself with his unique sound that features driving basslines and crisp, polished production. His ascent in the scene is marked by hits like his version of Musique’s "Keep on Jumpin'" and "Get This Party Started," which have resonated with audiences globally and secured his position as a top artist on Beatport.

He has made a significant impact with his informative Ableton tutorials on YouTube, which have become invaluable resources for aspiring DJs and producers over the past few years. His educational content has not only garnered widespread attention but has also played a crucial role in shaping the skills of the next generation of music creators.

With a lineup that boasts both ACRAZE's signature house beats and Westend's tech-house flair, attendees can expect a night filled with dynamic performances and an atmosphere charged with excitement. This is more than just a concert – it's an opportunity to witness the artistry of two influential music producers who are shaping the future of dance music.

Adding to the already impressive lineup, elrow welcomes Bastian Bux, a beloved figure in New York's music scene. With a boundary-pushing approach to both creation and curation, Bastian effortlessly blends funky, disco, minimal, and tech house, seamlessly breaking down genre barriers.

As one of elrow's prominent residents, he embodies the brand's ethos of vibrancy, authenticity, and boundless energy. Renowned for his technical prowess and ability to transport audiences into immersive sonic landscapes, Bastian has captivated crowds at renowned venues and festivals worldwide, from Tomorrowland in Belgium to the glamorous Encore Beach Club in Las Vegas, and even the iconic closing party at Space Ibiza.

The Knockdown Center, a transformed century-old factory, is the backdrop to this auditory extravaganza. Melding the beauty of historical architecture with cutting-edge advancements, it stands as a testament to innovation throughout the ages. Every pulse of the bass, every gleam of the light promises an experience enriched by a storied ambiance.
