DOUBLEHEADER: Patrick Topping x Kerri Chandler

A rare meeting of two generations of house music takes over the historic Knockdown Center as Kerri Chandler and Patrick Topping come together for a special double header inside one of New York’s most iconic spaces.

With over three decades behind the decks, Kerri Chandler stands as one of the original architects of house music. Raised in New Jersey within a family of jazz musicians, his sound is rooted in soul, disco, and the underground energy of the East Coast.

From early residencies at Club Zanzibar to founding influential labels like Madhouse and Kaoz Theory, Chandler has shaped the genre at every level. His catalog spans more than 100 releases, and his sets, often stretching for hours, are known for their depth, musicality, and connection to the dancefloor.

Joining him is Patrick Topping, one of the most in demand names in modern house and techno. Since breaking through in 2013, the Newcastle native has become a fixture at the world’s leading clubs and festivals, including DC-10, Hï Ibiza, Tomorrowland, and Coachella.

As the founder of Trick, he has built a label and event brand that has surpassed 125 releases while championing a new wave of artists across the global scene.

Set inside the 160 year old Knockdown Center, this night brings together two distinct perspectives on house music. One rooted in its foundations, the other pushing its current direction forward. From extended selections to peak time moments, this is a full spectrum session built for the dancefloor.
