CRUD0 TAKES OVER Bossa Nova Civic Club - FREE WITH RSVP

About

WEDNESDAY NOV 18th - FREE SESSION AT BOSSA NOVA SIVIC CLUB 10:00 PM - RSVP ON RA IT IS AN HONOR FOR CRUDO TO RETURN TO BOSSA NOVA CIVIC CLUB FOR THE 11th EDITION OF FREE TECHNO SESSIONS. A ROOM THAT HAS LONG BEEN PART OF OUR JOURNEY AS DANCERS, AND ONE THAT CONTINUES TO BE A CORNERSTONE OF NEW YORK CITY’S UNDERGROUND ELECTRONIC MUSIC CULTURE. RAVE CULTURE IS INSEPARABLE FROM THE SPACES CREATED OUTSIDE ESTABLISHED INSTITUTIONS. WAREHOUSES, ABANDONED BUILDINGS AND TEMPORARY DANCE FLOORS BECAME PLACES OF MUSICAL EXPERIMENTATION AND COLLECTIVE EXPRESSION. FREE PARTIES EMERGED AS AN IMPORTANT PART OF THIS HISTORY, CHALLENGING CONVENTIONAL IDEAS OF ACCESS, OWNERSHIP AND THE COMMERCIAL VALUE OF MUSIC. THEIR SIGNIFICANCE EXTENDS BEYOND THE ABSENCE OF AN ADMISSION FEE, REFLECTING A COMMITMENT TO AUTONOMY, PARTICIPATION AND THE SHARED EXPERIENCE OF SOUND. THIS LEGACY HAS A PARTICULAR MEANING FOR US. IN BOGOTÁ, GENERATIONS OF ARTISTS, COLLECTIVES AND INDEPENDENT PROMOTERS HAVE SUSTAINED A TECHNO CULTURE THROUGH SELF-ORGANIZED GATHERINGS AND A COMMITMENT TO THE DANCE FLOOR. THAT SAME ETHOS HAS INFORMED CRUD0 FROM ITS EARLIEST DAYS. OUR FREE TECHNO SESSIONS CONTINUE THIS PRACTICE IN NEW YORK, KEEPING ACCESSIBILITY AND MUSICAL INTEGRITY AT THE CENTER OF OUR WORK. BORN IN NEW YORK, WITH ROOTS IN BOGOTÁ, CRUD0 WAS BUILT AROUND A PARTICULAR UNDERSTANDING OF TECHNO AS A CULTURE SHAPED BY MUSIC, COMMUNITY AND THE FREEDOM OF THE DANCE FLOOR. FOR THREE YEARS, OUR WORK HAS FOCUSED ON PRESERVING THE RAW FOUNDATIONS OF THE GENRE, CONNECTING GENERATIONS OF ARTISTS AND CREATING SPACE FOR COLOMBIAN TECHNO IN NEW YORK. A CONTINUOUS EXCHANGE BETWEEN THE CITY THAT SHAPED OUR MUSICAL IDENTITY AND THE CITY WE NOW CALL HOME. FREE WITH RSVP
