Patrice Bäumel Open Air

On June 23, Amsterdam-based producer and DJ Patrice Bäumel brings his ethereal and entrancing melodic techno sound to The Roof of Superior Ingredients. As we celebrate the solstice, the magic of Bäumel's winding selections will provide the sonic canvas to paint a picture-perfect sunset after an extended summer day.

Bäumel has molded a storied dance music career spanning nearly two decades. Celebrated for music that's as intelligent and emotional as it is groove-inducing and dancefloor-forward, his reputation for crafting chart-topping hits has earned him releases on lauded labels like Afterlife, Global Underground, Bedrock, Anjunadeep, and Kompact. The son of a music journalist, he was always enamored with alternative and eclectic sounds. He never intended to make a career in music. But a fierce love for the dance music scene, his deliciously strange 2008 release "Roar" becoming an Ibiza anthem, and a residency at Amsterdam's (now shuttered) legendary club Trouw transformed him into an international sensation.

Patrice is just as thoughtful and introspective as his music. These personality traits help inform a uniquely reflective sound focused on expanding the possibilities of performance and production. He's come to realize his humble role as a creator is to unify the dancefloor with joyous experiences while exposing fans and followers to the thrill of radical sonic art.

He's set to make a rare appearance in New York for a summer season opener at the iconic 74 Wythe Avenue, Superior Ingredients (formerly Output). The venue has played a prominent role in reimagining and revitalizing the neighborhood's burgeoning dance music scene. It blends the best elements of premium hospitality, intimate nightlife experiences, and mega-club culture. Superior Ingredients is a preeminent domestic dance music destination.

The Roof is Superior Ingredients' crown jewel. Its Euro-Ibiza, big club vibe is tropical, effervescent, and joyful. Beyond having the best view of the iconic Manhattan skyline of any nightlife venue, the 5,000 square foot rooftop features a state-of-the-art sound system and a 150-ton custom retractable glass and steel rooftop—an ideal feature for those endless summer days, and the incomparable music of Patrice Bäumel.
