GlobeSonic on the Hudson

Jonathan Phillips

Reality Sandwich is proud to be a media sponsor of GlobeSonic Sound System's fourth annual free outdoor dance parties on the Hudson River. For each of these nights, hundreds of partygoers will descend upon the western shores of Manhattan to dance to some of the best modern world music out there today. These top global djs will be accompanied by a percussion ensemble dishing out some tasty tribal rhythms.

Focusing on the modernization of world music, GlobeSonic Sound System is "a DJ collective spinning a high-energy ecstatic dance celebration of the earth’s musical heritage, weaving traditional music with modern aesthetics." The collective consists of music impresario Fabian Alsultany, Bill Bragin (Director of Outdoor Programming at Lincoln Center) and author/yoga instructor and RS contributor Derek Beres.

The event is also being supported by Six Degrees Records, Jivamukti Yoga School, Parashakti’s Dance of Liberation, (eco)mpassion, Body Temple, and Alok Health. This series is presented by Summer on the Hudson, a program of the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation.
