Etrangers combines the coldness of electronic beats with the heat of dangerous and unfulfilled desires. It is the sound of the Parisian night time, it is the voice of 21st century romance. 

Move to the seething rhythm of the blue hour. 

Drink some rough red wine, light up your gauloise... 

Smudge some black kohl around your eyes and head for Le Chat Noir. St Germain will never be the same.....

Sartre, De Beavoir, midnight catfights, the deep sound of longing....Agnetha Faltskog meets Yello meets Kraftwerk on the Trans-European Express. Murakami. Goldfrapp. The howling wind. Francoise Hardy. Trixie-Annie. Berlin's Electric Dance-bar. The seething rhythms of the blue hour. Scandinavian melancholy infused with a South American eroticism. You need an infusion.

Christy Love has always had a love for music and has been immersed in the house music scene for more than 3 decades.  She is one of the most sought-after DJs in NYC, largely because she consistently destroys dancefloors all over the city (and beyond) with her distinct sets comprising of a clever mixture of classic and modern house bursting with driving beats and funky bass lines; she plays a pivotal role in defining the current underground sound of New York”.  This DJ prowess, combined with her production work as House of Stank with long-time collaborator, W. Jeremy, and the success of their label, Get Up Recordings, has transformed Christy Love into a house music triple threat.  

Originally from West Virginia, Christy moved to Philadelphia in the early 90’s, where she became a familiar face on the city’s house music scene.  After hearing Cajmere’s “The Percolator” at Revival one Saturday night, her life would never be the same.  She began collecting as much house records as she could get her hands on.  When Christy moved to San Francisco in 1995, a local DJ believed she had such a natural ear for house music he gave her two turntables and a mixer so she could become a DJ.  Over the next few years she began playing at house parties all around San Francisco and co-hosted a weekly Chicago House party at The Top, one of San Fran’s favorite underground spots.  In 2000, Christy moved to NYC, where she again immersed herself into the city’s underground club scene, but this time… as a DJ.  Armed with a keen musical ear, a hard-working attitude and a larger-than-life personality, Christy quickly became an integral part of the city’s underground club scene.  In 2005, she began a monthly residency at Debassed, a Chicago Booty House party hosted by resident Mark Salinger (from the infamous Booty Bar parties) at the Williamsburg then hot spot, Red & Black.  

That same year, Christy met fellow NYC DJ, W. Jeremy, with whom she developed a special kinship based on a shared love of all genres of music, but more specifically, house.  In 2006, they started a weekly party at the infamous underground dance den, mr. Black.  STANK, as the party was aptly named, played host to many of house music’s most influential DJs, including the legendary Wild Pitch Acid maestro, DJ Pierre.  Together with Pierre, Christy and Jeremy launched a monthly party at STANK, dubbed “AFRO ACID: The Chicago Sessions,” where Chicago jacked New York with such world-renowned guests as Cajmere, Glenn Underground, Ron Carroll, Mark Grant and Harrison Crump.  

In 2007, Christy and Jeremy began producing original music under the name, House of Stank.  Over the next 2 years, their debut and sophomore tracks, “Baby Brain” and “4 Tha Freaks,” were released on DJ Pierre’s label, Afro Acid Digital.  In 2008 and 2009, they released, “Make U Jack” and “Get Up, Yeah!” on Dust Traxx Chicago.  Together, they have remixed artists such as The 2 Bears, 214, Johnny Dynell and Thee-O & Merlyn Martin.  

In the fall of 2010, Christy and Jeremy started the label, Get Up Recordings, to give themselves and other artists the opportunity to explore musical freedoms and push through the ceiling of mediocre dance music.  The label’s roster has included artists such as Heller & Farley, Inland Knights, Honey Dijon, Tedd Patterson, Up Yours, Brodanse, The Carry Nation, The Cucarachas, Quentin Harris, Kim Ann Foxman, David Harness, Johnny Fiasco, Automagic, House of Stank and countless other established and up-and-coming artists.  

In 2013, she ventured into solo territory with, “I’m Goin’ Under”, a classic underground house monster featuring a guest vocal by the world-renowned Mistress of Ceremonies and Scissor Sisters front-woman, Ana Matronic, released on Get Up Recordings.

Brooklyn, NYC where they paint pictures of Biggie was a perfect place to raise a young musician.  The city's elaborate melting pot of music proved an irresistible challenge - how do you please a generation of kids who grew up listening to whatever those mean streets could throw at them?  The answer is simple - Vito Fun knows what you like, because he likes it too!

The Carry Nation (Nita Aviance and Will Automagic) are DJs and producers whose style is deeply rooted and fundamentally intertwined with the historical arc of New York City's most affirming nightlife experiences. Nita is a noted member of the legendary House of Aviance. She started DJing around the turn of the millennium and was a resident at the infamous Mr. Black and Westgay, both touchstones for queer artistry and culture in downtown nightlife of the early 2000's. Will has deep roots in NYC club culture, having worked at The Loft and collaborated closely with David Mancuso, holding residencies at many of the downtown New York clubs over the years including The Limelight, Life and Vandam. After dividing his time between NYC and Paris, working on music with fashion houses such as Issey Miyake, Vivienne Westwood and Yves Saint Laurent, Will returned to DJing dance floors when he co-created SPANK with partners Sean B & Jason Roe. What started as a basement dance party evolved into a roving art-based warehouse party along with a namesake zine. SPANK began to work closely with Horse Meat Disco and the close relationship with that crew has extended in various forms through the years into the present.

Currently, Nita and Will perform globally as both individual DJs and, more often, as a duo --they are most recognized for epic extended B2B sets and their wildly successful monthly queer party (also known as The Carry Nation) at Brooklyn's Good Room. Their range is wide and exciting, and in the New York tradition they effortlessly flow through genres and time periods while keeping a modern edge. Since the inception of The Carry Nation, the duo has toured the world extensively including Glastonbury’s Block 9 and Berlin’s Berghain/Panorama Bar among many others. They also have a residency at Ladyfag's flagship monthly Battle Hymn. As producers, their credits include releases and remixes on Get Up Recordings, Classic Music Company, TRIBAL, Nervous, TRAX, Batty Bass, TWIRL, W&O Street Tracks and more. Their latest venture is Major Records, an imprint they co-founded with Justin Cudmore to showcase their Majorettes collaboration with releases that are setting dancefloors alight with a fresh but classic house vibe that stays rooted in the excitement of New York’s history and underground.
