Nine events spanning the legendary Gashouder venue—which Awakenings events have called home, going back to 1997—and the Ziggo Dome Arena, will be welcoming some of the world’s most talented acts for over 5 days of techno from October 19-23.



Gasholder, Amsterdam’s critically acclaimed industrial event venue, will be packed with a specially curated bill of heavy techno hitters on October 21. Richie Hawtin will be organizing a special showcase for the third night of Awakenings ADE programming. ‘From Our Minds’ is the name of the international Techno star’s creative collective, headed by Hawtin himself and a play on the name of his studio album, From My Mind to Yours. 



Hawtin will be hosting this spectacular stage on the second night of Awakenings ADE, along with artists who’ve released via his esteemed label Plus 8 throughout the 25 years it's been established.



Danza Tribale label boss Adiel will play a hypnotic set similar to those she’s played at the famed Goa Ultrabeat parties in Rome where was a resident DJ. Her densely fantastical live selections include melodic motifs, introspective atmospheres and entrancing 4 on the floor rhythms.



Musical trio Fjaak blends House, Techno, ambient, and breakbeat, and has the ability to grab a hold of a dance floor in an instant—expect this and more from the artists and iconic producer Amoral.



Max Kobosil aka Kobosil, a Berghain regular, is bringing his subtly hypnotic synth sounds and the dark, variant form of Techno he’s notorious for directly to Hawtin’s Awakenings event.



One of the first DJ/producers to emerge from the Palestinian underground scene, Sama' Abdulhadi is a tour de force.  Her distinctly dry, punchy brand of techno has quickly set her apart from her techno peers and continues to cement her place internationally from clubs to the main stage. Expect to hear a plethora of unreleased cuts from her upcoming debut studio album.

Miami is one of the world’s most vibrant, exciting, and culturally diverse cities, and if one music festival captures that spirit and refines into an exciting weekend of action it’s III Points.




In 2022 the festival will return to the Mana Wynwood Convention center on October 21-22 with over 130 artists that truly and accurately reflect the musical taste of the beachside metropolis. One that is racked with good taste but also puts an emphasis on partying hard.








Historically, dance music has played a strong role on the III Points lineup (just like it has in Miami), and this year’s roster represents numerous facets of the global dance community.




One headliner everyone is sure to be thrilled on is LCD Soundsystem. The legendary rock, dance, electronic, indie, alternative amalgam that extends from the equally polymathic brain of the exalted James Murphy will provide their angry yet funky yet progressive signature sound for an epic closing set.







Other crossover electronic acts that will bless the stage under the tropical night sky include newfound tastemakers like Porter Robinson and his Nurture live set and the always soulful James Blake alongside old school legends like Orbital.




In DJ land, some of the best in the world will be spinning such as Luciano, Black Coffee, ANNA, and DJ Harvey. Plus, III Points has always honored the next generation of Miami artists, which they continue to do through exciting acts like Nala, INVT, and Coffintexts.








But the music taste of Miami and its residents is not bound to dance music whatsoever, which is why III Points is also bringing in major hip hop acts like Busta Rhymes as well as pop sensations like the ascending Rosalía who honor the city’s Latin heritage.




If there is ever any time to get away from one of the stages, it’s necessary to stop by Despacio, the epic soundsystem James Murphy designed with the Dewaele brothers of Soulwax, made specifically for vinyl. Murphy will likely be spinning in there all weekend long (except for when he’s performing with LCD) diving deep into funk, soul, and disco.

Previous residencies include  The Tuesday Club and Tank in his native Sheffield, England, where he shared the stage with Eats Everything, Mark Knight, and Solardo.

We completely sold out our November 11 show with tech house phenom Cloonee. So, we've decided to make a weekend out of it and bring him out on November 13 for some Sunday Funday action on The Roof of Superior Ingredients. Can you think of any better way to spend a Sunday afternoon than surrounded by breathtaking views of the Manhattan skyline and dancing to the chunky, funky beats of the Beatport chart-topping artist?





In 2020 he made his debut on Chris Lake's Black Book Records with "What Ya Want," a buoyant floor rocking house anthem. His relationship with Lake continued to coalesce. When he emerged from isolation, Lake brought him to the United States for the first time to help cement the young producer's place as one of the most sought-after performers in house music today.





He's since remixed Lake's hit single "Turn Off The Lights," in a way that only Cloonee could and collaborated with Chris on "Nightmares," a twisted and dark journey through the musical minds of two of house music's most forward-thinking artists. Cloonee continues to impress on the solo front as well. He's scored massive releases like the sultry horn-laden "Mi Amore" with Wade on his CLNE imprint, "Sun Goes Down," an enchanting rework of Cassius' "Sound of Violence," and his recent collaboration with up-and-comer Bristotti "Tripasia" on his newly minted Hellbent Records label.







This summer has been one of large stages, sold-out shows, and dancers beginning to understand the immense talent that industry giants recognized early on. He's played no less than seven dates in Ibiza for Repopulate Mars, ANTS, and elrow. His debut at Insomniac's Day Trip in LA was a wild, sold-out show that included a rare b3b with Chris Lake and Chris Lorenzo. And he was a crowd favorite at festivals like EDC Vegas, ARC Music Festival, HARD Summer, Electric Forest, and Abode In The Park.





It's clear that Cloonee is next up for the top spot. So, don't miss this chance to catch him in the intimate setting of one of New York's most revered and celebrated venues, Superior Ingredients.

Deep tech virtuoso and Eastenderz label owner East End Dubs makes his New York headlining premiere as part of Gray Area's Debut series on Wednesday, November 23, on the roof of Superior Ingredients. His dark and infectious tech house providing the soundtrack for an epic sunset against the backdrop of the Manhattan skyline is the perfect way to start your long Thanksgiving weekend.






A staple of the London underground scene, the FUSE resident, has firmly made his mark in house music with a cavalcade of rich and soulful offerings on labels like Hot Creations, Moon Harbour, and his own eponymous limited release label. And it's no wonder why he's got DJs and punters clamoring for his sexy, UK garage-inspired deep tech beats.




"I am inspired by London's Underground Scene, by warehouse parties, UK garage, and the likes of Chris Lattner, Justin Drake, and Enzo Siragusa," he explains. "The East End Dubs sound mainly focuses on drums and big basslines. I guess these are the effects of playing drums from an early age. All the tracks are made for the dancefloor – I'd like to think my tracks are timeless DJ tools. I'm just trying to produce music that will not age and make you want to move when you hear it."








His music—while widely lauded on the dancefloor—is coveted by DJs worldwide. Only allowing a select group of industry friends to test his IDs, he builds his tracks for dancers at clubs and festivals worldwide. Among that tightly held community of peers are some of the scene's most sought-after artists, such as Disclosure, who played "bRave" on their Dj Kicks Mix, as well as Jamie Jones and The Martinez Brothers.








The consummate creator, East End Dubs shines brightly in the studio and behind the decks. He's a staple of the UK's iconic house music scene with appearances at Parklife, fabric, Printworks, The Warehouse Project, and the annual Eastenderz Open Air in London. But his love for dropping those sweet, sultry beats is unstoppable, and he's become a champion of the deep tech sound worldwide, making multiple appearances in Ibiza every season, including his residency at Cova Santa and clubs and festivals from Brazil and Paris to the debaucherous Club Space, Miami.




We're happy to welcome him to Brooklyn for his first headlining show in New York. So work up your appetite and prepare to spend the weekend dancing to world-class house music with the Gray Area community.

On November 26, we welcome John Digweed to The Room at Superior Ingredients. Digweed's last New York performance was with longtime collaborator Sasha at Avant Gardner. And after a summer of rocking festivals around the world, he's coming to Brooklyn for a rare intimate performance.



As one of the artists who helped architect the dance music movement in the early 90s, he stands firm as a historic figure in the story of the culture. The groundbreaking British DJ and producer continues to loom large in the zeitgeist and remains as relevant and dynamic as ever.




The co-founder of the Bedrock record label (with Nick Muir), Digweed, has spent the last twenty years driving an engine for creative growth in dance music. Under his direction, the label has been responsible for establishing the careers of countless artists. And even after nearly 25 years in business, the Bedrock seal of approval remains a defining moment for those fortunate and talented enough to be signed.




When Digweed burst onto the scene as the acid house craze was waning, he helped create the foundation for progressive house to reign supreme. And over the years, his uncompromising attention to detail and incredible production prowess has kept him at the top of the game. While he was one of the first DJs to tour the US extensively, he remains a prominent figure at clubs and festivals globally. He's brought his precision mixing and expert track selection to EDC, Tomorrowland, Timewarp, Ultra, Output (now Superior Ingredients), fabric, Pacha, and many more.




The ear for curation he established with his pivotal compilation mixes, The Mix Collection alongside Sasha, continues to this day. He continues that work through his radio show Transitions, broadcast to over 14 million people in 60 countries weekly.




Dance off those Thanksgiving leftovers with John Digweed at Superior Ingredients on November 26.

Superior Ingredients: The Room

The weather may be getting colder, but that doesn’t mean the party has to stop in the city that never sleeps. On Saturday, December 3rd, Croatian-born house prodigies Matroda and San Pacho will showcase their hypnotic party tech to house music lovers at Superior Ingredients in the heart of Brooklyn’s thriving electronic music scene. Ever since all the hype surrounding the release of their 2021 dance floor anthem “La Pasion” on Matroda’s Terminal Underground exploded, the like-minded duo has been inseparable.


Throughout his journey as a burgeoning DJ and producer, Matroda has curated his unique “Matrodasound,” that’s left a mark on the evolution of house music. He’s collaborated with an assortment of house prodigies like Tchami, SNBRN, Wax Motif, Chris Lake, and Dances With White Girls, among many others. He continues to impress his fans and renowned producers with his showstopping soundscapes.







He recently announced his Jack The House tour that kicked off at Electric Zoo New York this past Labor Day weekend. The forthcoming Superior Ingredients soirée will be one of his last few North American stops. With Amsterdam Dance Event just around the corner, the festival unveiled Matroda’s exclusive ADE event showcase, scheduled to take place on October 23rd. And you guessed it, Matroda recruited none other than San Pacho to join him on stage at this far-out stage takeover alongside Tony Romera, Honey & Badger, and Subshift.




San Pacho has become a hot international sensation following the release of his Latin house banger, “Amor,” and has since been performing at iconic venues and events throughout Europe, like Noa Beach Club in Croatia.




The San Pacho project launch is only two years (and change) in the making, but his exemplary, club-friendly beats have left a massive impression on the scene. The distinguished DJ/producer is thrilled to bring his talents across the pond for the first time this fall. His grand US debut performances will kick off in Los Angeles in late November, and then he’ll finally be making his way to join Matroda at one of Brooklyn’s most esteemed nightclubs.









Separately, San Pacho and Matroda have taken over the house music scene on their own terms. But together, they’re simply unstoppable. So don’t miss catching them perform back-to-back heaters at their upcoming Superior Ingredients debut on December 3rd.

Franky Wah makes his highly-anticipated return to Superior Ingredients in Brooklyn on December 9th for an extended 5-hour set. The eclectic producer's wide-ranging catalog of euphoric melodic house, techno, and breakbeat are the perfect soundtrack for the intimate and iconic space at 74 Wythe, where legendary nights have been going down for years. 





You won't want to miss this night at the intimate, vibey space, set to the British DJ/producer's euphoric brand of melodic house and techno.





Wah has seen a swift rise to global acclaim, with an impressive list of collaborators and supporters of his tunes, from a who's-who of OG UK DJs, including Carl Cox, Sasha, and Pete Tong. In 2021, he collabed with Cox on "We Are One," a dreamy ode to the magic of the dancefloor, featuring touching quotes from the King of Techno. Cox then tapped Wah in 2022 for techno banger "See the Sun Rising."



After two years of putting out tunes and finding his sound, Wah struck gold with 2019's "Get Me High," an energetic house heater supported by a wide range of massive DJs, including Tale Of Us, Solomun, Tiësto, Nervo, Annie Mac, and Sasha. Sasha let Wah know "Get Me High" had become a staple of his sets, so much so that he'd build out what he'd play around it. This led to Sasha and Wah pairing up 2020's Haunted EP, resulting in four killer tracks, including the heavy-hitter title track.




"For anyone aspiring to climb that ladder… I'm from a village with 800 people. There's no scene," Wah told Gray Area in 2021. "Anything is possible. [Sasha] is an icon. To work with him, it was so career and life-affirming for me. Am I really at this level where I'm worthy of working with this kind of artist?"





Wah fell in love with trance at just 11, analyzing the bars in the song to better understand why it made him feel the way it did. A farmer's son from a long line of farmers, the "I Swear" producer succeeded as a competitive bodybuilder before deciding to try his hand at production. Playing the main stage at the Creamfields festival in 2019 sealed the deal, leaving him with a deeply satisfying feeling his other pursuits never reached.



He's since played at major clubs and festivals worldwide, including most of Ibiza's legendary venues, including Amnesia, Hï, Eden, Ushuaïa, and all around the UK and London. And for good reason—his sets a driving, euphoric, and filled with that same passion he felt to hearing his first club track as a kid.
