ELECSER 46: DELUXE

June 18, 2015

DELUXE began as a monthly party at Gin Palace in downtown New York City's East Village founded by Chris Alker aka The Dance Machine in collaboration with turntablist and producer DJ Anubus. Following Anubus' defection out west, Brandon Cappellari aka DIMS, known for his successful soiree "I Wanna See All My Friends At Once" and stellar summer groove mixes, stepped up to the plate.
For the next year and a half DIMS and The Dance Machine held court.  In that time they amassed a sound archive of their live mixes featuring special guests: Andy Pry (Tiki Disco), Ron Like Hell (Wrecked NYC), Allies For Everyone (KID Recordings), Omri S. Quire (East Side Social Club), DJ Bruce (Razor-N-Tape), & Map of the World at Night (Nurvous Records).
Despite the expiration of the venue, Chris and Brandon have continued to DJ together at various spots around town.  The ongoing collaboration results in a distinct sound that can only be described as DELUXE.

This DELUXE mix is a small taste of the ongoing musical collaboration between seasoned New York DJs Brandon Cappellari aka DIMS and Chris Alker aka The Dance Machine.  Merely the tip of the iceberg, the mix connects the dots between Disco, Funk, House & Soul.
