dark.loud: NECTAR (J.C. LGBTQ+ Pride)

Our juiciest, most colorful session yet, we’re bringing the city’s freshest, most scintillating grooves to Jersey City's LGBTQ+ Pride on August 26 for a day-into-night right in the heart of the festival in downtown J.C.! Following a prolific summer with sessions at Public Records, Paragon, and Charivari Detroit Music Festival, we welcome NightChild Records label boss, 718 Sessions regular, and veteran New York house head, producer, and DJ RISSA GARCIA. We're also excited to present the multi-dimensional force from Los Angeles, sensational selector and harm reduction advocate THEYTEE, who is capping a year that saw them featured at Boiler Room and The Lot Radio. Joining us fresh from Elements Festival, Philly favorites RIVA + BIANCA join dark.loud head honchos BLVCK TRUFFLE and ECO, alongside two of their personal favorite groovesmen DJ FOCH, SOICY, and the dark sultry sounds of LE GRAND PHOENIX from Atlanta and ZOEY ROCHDI. NECTAR kicks off daytime at 1pm on Jersey Avenue right outside of Hemp Social, with the sounds of Move & Groove's DANIEL SCALA and MYKAEL DAWUD! We go until 9pm and then take the party to a secret downtown location after J.C. Pride wraps up. Stay tuned to our IG for location details, which will be announced around 6pm. - We are a sanctuary for all, especially those who feel conscious, present, or strange.
