MISSION

I am a New Yorker who by a universal mistake was born in Russia and had to cross continent and then traverse US
to finally find a city with a heartbeat that matched mine.
No other city embraced me. In Moscow I was too outspoken, in Miami too fast, in Chicago too daring.
New York City gave me life.
Its heart and spirit will be forever young as its blood is
always renewed with fresh talent. Dreamers and critics, romantics and seekers, performers and transformers from all over the world strive to make a mark in NYC. Creative renewal is in the air we breathe and every generation of New Yorkers has its own art, nightlife, and social scenes that evolve continuously. Keeping up with all events that are shaping this city is a challenge, but I will try to bring you the fascinating, the beautiful and the outrageous in New York City nightlife with an emphasis on underground electronic music scene which happens to be my favorite fantasy land.
Expect the unexpected

Wonderland


As far as rabbit hole disappearances go the experience can change you and your life. Be careful what you wish for, because that is exactly what happened to me at Satoshi party last week at Sullivan Room. In a switch of a button Satoshi hypnotised everyone at Sully including himself. It's a rare occurrence when you can actually see the energy being passed from the DJ to the crowd and back to the DJ. Sullivan Room was breathing and no, I did not eat magic mushrooms.

At some point even Satoshi seemed overwhelmed by the energy of his own creation, if only for a moment.

Pure voodoo was in the air and it manifested in different ways. There were couples on the dance floor that could not stop touching each other in all the right places. I forgot about the bathroom for hours, my feet were performing a crazy number as if they were separated from my body all together and I lost my date.

Satoshi peppered his set with surprises; twisty techno sounds right in the middle of an outrageous vocal you've never heard before and just as you were about to start thinking you knew where he was going, he'd switch it up again and leave you begging for more. He teased, he dropped, he brought it back, besides the music he was really spinning the crowd. One moment you felt light and fluffy sitting on a cloud and the next was a roller coaster of beats that made you feel dizzy. Hypnotic roller coaster ride, that's the only way to describe it.
