Set against the industrial backdrop of Industry City, Book Club Radio Festival #1: The Circus gathers an eclectic assembly of innovators from across the electronic music spectrum for its debut stateside edition. Borne from the pulsating undercurrents of club culture and a spirit for creative convergence, this new festival promises to transform Brooklyn’s iconic warehouse spaces into an immersive arena of techno, house, and beyond. The lineup threads together heritage legends and boundary-pushing newcomers for an experience at the frontier of contemporary sound.

From Felix Da Housecat’s inimitable signature to the legendary grooves of Marshall Jefferson and the storied selections of Nicky Siano, legacy swells through the festival’s core. Rising talents such as Arianna Danae and Baby Weight bring fresh energy, while transatlantic taste-makers like FANNY (SE) and Perel bridge scenes with forward-thinking sets. Aluna, Griffin Maxwell Brooks, Lauren Flax, and Shaun Ross lead a cast committed to fearless genre transgressions.

Rimarkable, Kim Anh, Lovie, Tedd Patterson, and Jojo Lorenzo harness the spirit of the ballroom and the underground, threading radical inclusivity into driving rhythms. The likes of DJ Lady D, Swami Sound, Boogietraxx, Brux, and Baltra lineup to represent the next wave of footwork, deep grooves, and unclassifiable sounds. Book Club Radio Festival #1: The Circus invites dancers to journey deep into the night under the shared pulse of peerless selectors and live acts.

With Industry City reimagined as a site for connectivity and experimentation, this curation blurs the line between performance and community, promising a new chapter for dance floor devotees across the United States.
