DOWNSTAIRS

Whether you’re enjoying the utter
debauchery of spring break, ending a week of networking and/or partying at the
Winter Music Conference or you’re a South Beach regular, you don’t want
to miss the meeting of these two incomparable Latin music entities with
Turntables on the Hudson. Miami Beach is the only location hot enough to
host such a sultry event and to add some extra sizzle to the mix, expect live
traditional Cuban congas n’ guanguanco to be fused with the usually massive
Afro-Brazilian samba rhythms featured at ALMA.ALMA, “All for the Love of Music & Artâ€, has
created a unique sound they call “Neo-Brasilian Fusionâ€. It incorporates
samba, pagode, soulful house, salsa, drum n’bass, mangue beat, nova bossa nova
and so many other influences of resident Brazilian DJs True and
Miller Cruz. This party has been rocking NYC with guests Ray Velasquez,
Maracatu NY, Manhattan Samba, House of Rhumba, Grupo Capoeira Brasil, Tommy
Bones and countless live guest musicians keeping everyone shaking their
‘groove thangs’ non-stop.And you can expect the sleek Moroccan style of the venue
Jade to add an extra sexiness to the already seductive sounds DJs Geo
Leche and Sabo of The Latin Funk Music Festival will be
laying down. Spinning for over two decades to the delight of audiences from
Hong Kong to Mexico City, New York City’s own Leche whips up a creamy rich
blend of tropical rhythms with healthy doses of house and breaks to create his
own distinct, savory flavor. While Sabo has been gaining international
recognition with his new release, “JUMP/NYC†on WonderWheel Recordings
produced by ZEB featuring Nappy G. He has toured Spain including
playing at the Elektronikaldia Festival de San Sebastien in 2003 and
he’s played at the PS-1 Warm Up Series and the Cooper Hewitt Design
Museum’s Friday after work series. He also frequently opens for the band
Si*Se and has a weekly online radio show for EVR,

will be on the lower level with an ensemble of very talented guests of their
own. DJs Nickodemus and Mariano of Turntables on the
Hudson has been fusing live musicianship with their stellar international
selections for audiences worldwide for over 10 years now and have always carried
a heavy Latino influence. Nappy
G will be live on the timbales and more, so come prepared for an
all-inclusive, “party ‘til it hurts Miami-style†version of ALMA and
Turntables on the Hudson. Brought to you directly from the Soul of
New York, with Love via Brazil.Saturday, March 26th (9pm-4am)
