TEARS IN THE CLUB ALBUM TOUR

KINGDOM (Fade to Mind, LA)

For the better part of the last decade, Kingdom — Los Angeles-based producer and DJ Ezra Rubin — has been a key figure in club music’s revision of sonic and social norms, a generational update on dance-floor freedom that’s also had an affect on the aesthetics of R&B. Known for some of the most groundbreaking club singles and EPs of the last decade, including releases on Night Slugs, as well as their own label Fade to Mind. Kingdom is hot off the release of their first full length album release, Tears in the Club, giving us a masterpiece that transcends beyond the dancefloor and gives us fruits of their unique, wide production breadth. Returning to Boston for the first time in years, we are humbled to present this incredible artist alongside another unique and iconic voice…

MIKE Q (Fade to Mind, Qween Beat, NJ)

Mike Q has been a leading figure in the ballroom sound and has been synonymous with the modern resurrection of the artform for the last decade and beyond. They have been a leading figure in championing ballroom’s allure—and its commercial viability, carrying the legacy of producers like Vjuan Allure, who brought the music into forefront with reworks of classics like The Ha Dance from Masters at Work (The Allure Ha). He’s toured cities where local ballroom scenes are sprouting up, like Tokyo, Moscow, Paris, Mexico, and Seoul. He’s invaded living rooms across the globe with his live-streamed Boiler Room sets, and seduced the heads by linking up with the Fade to Mind label and GHE20G0TH1K party—both bulwarks of the experimental avant-garde.

MA (Nguzunguzu / Fade to Mind, LA)

In 10 years as a musician, Asma Maroof has released five EPs with Daniel Pineda as Nguzunguzu, spent two years as M.I.A.’s touring DJ, and released a self-titled album with three other musicians as Future Brown. She has helped lead the charge in developing the now iconic dark, bass driven R&B tinged club sound that the whole Fade to Mind label has become known for, often called “party music with a brutalist edge”. The first release for the label was the Timesup EP, and quickly set the pace for what would follow. We are delighted to have her join us for an all-star line up that will set the bar even higher for our humble basement party home.
