& Performance
Made Exquisitely Out-of-Control.
You are invited to Angels vs. Gods, July 12th at:
Dubai:Brooklyn
http://www.dubaibrooklyn.com
This Saturday you are invited to participate in an experiment of heresy and hedonism. Some say Dubai was built by fallen angels in a vain attempt to climb back to the clouds. Some say it is the play-land of gods and demons and nothing in between. For us the myth of Dubai is a simple excuse for escape. Our story is one of blessed intoxicants lubricating a nighttime fantasy that is one part masquerade ball and two parts all-night bacchanal.
The night is our communion and the sunrise is salvation.
Explore 14,000 sqft. of nooks and crannies and prophetic vision including: Peripheral Media Projects live mural built on street art ambition with high-art ideals, Sebastian Patane Masuelli debuts the video art installation "Love like With And Low, like I dug", Marlene Kryza shows a vision of Devilish Detail, while Lady Spin is the Goddess you dream of.
DJs are Angels:
Experience nine hours of massive sound, elevating the dance floor long past sunrise with elegant techno, deep house and hip-hop beats by DJs: Kimyon, MSG, Lauren Flax, Reaganomics and resident Zemi 17.
Live music is Godly:
The downstairs room of brick and steel has been converted into a low-down dirty live band den of sin by the creators of Rubulad. Featuring:
Mia Theodoratus - An angelic Harpist with Adam Dugas on vocals and Dee Pop, of Bush Tetras fame on Drums/ percussion. This darkly elegant, psychedelic and sophisticated duo dramatically interpret a wide range of songs with heavenly purity.
Discovery - This fancy four-piece band from Brooklyn writes catchy, sparse pop with deep disco and jazzy flourishes. Dig Cholewka's wise and smoky vocals and Marsh's synth and bass lines grooving wickedly to Garwacke's bright and bouncy drumming. Meanwhile Smith laces the stuff with effects-heavy, spaced-out trombone gold.
Gato Loco - Screams it's way through latin jazz while incorporating free-improv, delicate textures, and dense compositions.
The Mickey Western Band - Deep woods melodies and accordion improvisations fill the night in the open-air terrace.
The Harem is for Hedonists:
Goodman Industries is building a new harem lounge with soft fabrics, cush corners, hookahs and chilled Absinthe.
On this night you are participant and performer. Arrive costumed as Angel or God for discounted entrance and a chance to prove once and for all which is mightier: the wing or the sword. The most convincing Angel or God will be rewarded with free drinks all night (think beyond the boundary of Sunday school.)
All this and more at Dubai:

Take the L train to Montrose Ave, walk two blocks north

Listen for the music.
