SPONTANEOUS AFFINITY is about the communal nature of the dancefloor. It's about communication and feedback. Spontaneous Affinity isn't for the isolated bedroom producer, although we love them, too—it is for those of us who understand music and dance as one of the most powerful sources of personal growth and interpersonal empathy, who are driven by the need to support and elevate one another, and as a result experience the evolution of our creative and connective selves.

Spontaneous Affinity isn't about ego, knowledge, paraphernalia, or exclusivity of any kind. It's about PURE SENSATION. It's about losing track of yourself and merging with a moment. It's about temporary autonomous zones and ephemeral connections. It's about forgetting to Shazam that track or fix your hair. It's about the hours far past dawn when everyone left on the dancefloor has laid their soul bare but still looks beautiful under the harshness of sunlight.

Spontaneous Affinity is NOT A UTOPIAN VISION. It's about understanding how to let go. How to let go of a person. How to let go of a place. How to break a routine even if it hurts. How to appreciate a feeling that can't last forever as if it were eternal, and how to appreciate challenging moments—and challenging sounds—as catalysts for growth.

Skyler Gross (US) & Nick van Tiel (AUS) are Housing Corp: two guys who really wanted to be rappers, but lack all the necessary skills to do so. Instead of spitting their 16 bars on the corner, Nick and Sky hit the studio to turn their passion for the streets into Housing Corp’s version of house and UK garage. 

In recent months their tunes have gained hundreds of thousands of plays on Soundcloud and attention from the biggest online music publications including Vice/THUMP, Dancing Astronaut, Earmilk, and Daily Beat. Throwing night time raves in unconventional venues while maintaining club residencies in both NYC and Sydney, the duo has cultivated a following away from the computer screen. They’ve played at Verboten, Output, Ciello, Brooklyn Mirage and spun alongside dance music heavyweights like Shiba San, Route 94, Tchami, Lee Foss & Anabel Englund, Hayden James, Kant, Claptone, Nancy Wang, Vanilla Ace, and more.

Housing Corp is also partially responsible for the silver-laden “Chromed” events that recur in the gritty depths of Bushwick proper, and are featured Tastemakers on doNYC.

Charcoal Lemonade is a self-made duo from Salt Lake City creating messy and unfiltered tunes from their one-bedroom apartment.

Completely human-made, Sarah handles vocals, Remy covers guitar and production, and together they turn late nights and loud ideas into something alive.

When they're not pumping out jams, they're living on the slopes of Brighton
