New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Blkmarket Membership) Fumiya Tanaka is a name that we have heard for many years and would always put it together with the harder side of techno. In 2009, Fumiya launched what was his new sound and his new record label, Sundance. The 1st release was a collaboration between Ricardo Villalobos and Fumiya himself. Since then he has gone to release a track on Perlon's Superlongevity compilation five in 2010, a collaboration with
Thomas Melchior as Tofu Productions and a solo e.p 'Für Elodie' both in 2011 on Sundance, and last but not least the recent massive e.p just released on Perlon entitled 'I can tell you of course I know it was.' Fumiya also runs Op Disc, another label label hailing from Japan which showcases Japanese talents. We are very excited to have Fumiya Tanaka join us for his Blkmarket Membership debut.
Our friends Joan and Adrein the duo behind Masomenos. Their sets consist Joan DJing and Adrein performing live over her sets and then solo. They also run their label Welcome to Masomenos. Joan does the designs and Adrien manages all the music and collaborations by artists who go on the label. We love their sound that they push and are excited to have them back in New York.
Its been a long time coming, but we wanted to wait for the right fit for Willie Graff and this event was the one. Willie is one of Cielo NYC's resident DJ's during most of the year and then he heads off to Ibiza for the whole summer where he has been a resident at Pacha for many years. This past summer, Willie was invited to play DC-10's legendary party Circo-Loco. Willie is a music purist who doesn't like to limit himself to any particular style of music. He plays an eclectic array of house music, but is best known for his deep & moody trademark sound. Willie hands down is an amazing DJ and has quite the record collection. We are excited to have him debut finally at our party.
Shadi Megallaa is a long time friend of ours and we are very excited to have him back for his third appearance at Blkmarket Membership. Since his move from Abu Dhabi to New York city, Shadi has become part of the growing New York music scene which he now calls home.
Last but not least is resident Fahad who completes the lineup.
We will be celebrating Shadi Megallaa and
Cyril Claudel's birthdays as well.

President's Day Weekend
Sunday February 19 (NO WORK MONDAY)
Robpromotions & Benny Soto present
Dance.Here.Now.
Sasha is one of the world's most innovative icons in the electronic genre and a central figure in revolutionizing America's perception of electronic dance music. He has remixed the likes of
Madonna and The Chemical Brothers. His remix of Felix da Housecat's "Watching Cars Go By" earned him a Grammy nomination in 2004. He has released two Global Underground mixes; Global Underground 009: San Francisco and Global Underground 013: Ibiza. In 2000, he was voted #1 DJ in the world in DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs Poll. He also held one of the most memorable residencies at New York City's beloved venue Twilo along with John Digweed. It's fair to say
Sasha has made quite an impact on the electronic dance music scene and its followers. He is revered as a godfather of the dance music community and you'd be hard-pressed to find an EDM fan over the age of 25 who didn't cut their teeth on Sasha's earlier body of work, from his collaborations with
John Digweed in the Renaissance days of the 90's up to his much-celebrated artist album "Airdrawndagger" in 2002. Throughout his illustrious career,
Sasha has earned the respect of both his peers and his fans resulting in a status that is as close to royalty as the EDM scene will ever get. He is, quite simply, a legend.
Sasha returns to the Big Apple along with New York City's very own and Blk Market Membership residents Taimur + Fahad. Jump start your President's Day Weekend function at Cielo - Sunday, February 19th.
