Mister Saturday Night Takes Its Revenge

Posted on by Eamon Harkin

Mister Saturday Night keeps moving ahead at the Market Hotel loft, after this past weekend’s great night. This week we’re adding a nice, young Scotsman to the mix. As usual, solid jams by residents Eamon Harkin and Justin Carter are on the menu alongside an early open bar in a comfy space with no nonsense.

Our guest, The Revenge, aka Graeme Clark, is a Scotish DJ whose original productions range from deep-pocket, low-tempo head nodders to housey hand-in-the-air jams. Since his rise in the scene, he’s yet to play New York (He’s another one, in fact, that we’re not sure has ever played here… We’ll ask about that), and we’re happy to have him.

In A Space With A Train Whizzing By… Justin, Eamon, Scott Grooves and 10K Watts of Turbosound

Posted on by Eamon Harkin


Mister Saturday Night has got a nice, new, cozy home at the Market Hotel loft. After our early October party with Dixon (check the photos out here courtesy of Marc Whalen), it was clear the right balance had been struck. The space is great: plenty of room to spread out, dance and chat; room for our booming soundsystem (which is now twice the size… 10,000 watts of Turbosound for all you sound nerds out there); and easy access from the train (the JMZ is just out the door, and we see it whizzing by the window all night).

Eamon Harkin and Justin Carter will be dropping their disco, house and other sundries just like you like, and our special guest is Scott Grooves. It’s hard to believe it, but Scott, a Detroit DJ considered one of the best by Omar S, and a producer who’s worked with George Clinton and Roy Ayers, has never played in New York City. Word on the streets of the D is that we’re all in for a treat.

Also, we’re starting off the evening with a little present. Beer is on the house from 10p to 11p, while we play some jams to get you started. We’ll see you then and there.

Boo.

We’re teaming up with The Danger to throw a big ole costumed shebang this Saturday evening. The location we’re playing is a mystery. The fact that this party is going to be insane is not. The Danger always puts on a crazy spectacle of a party. Last year when we played, there was an aerial fire show over the dancefloor.

Music-wise, Mister Saturday Night is taking over the second floor of a building from 2am onwards. In addition to Eamon and Justin, Derek Plaslaiko and $mall ¢hange are among the other folks DJing and performing in the multiple spaces where the party’s going down.

We’re excited to see how well you dance in your costume.

Saturday, October 31 // party begins at 260 Meserole St, Brooklyn and continues to other spaces // 7p – 7a // $20 // more info // directions

Day Time with Justin, Eamon and Moodymann

Posted on by Eamon Harkin

It’s a special Saturday daytime version of Mister Saturday Night at 12-Turn-13, a loft with hardwood floors, hardwood ceilings, and a big, beautiful roof in the middle of Brooklyn. Bloody marys and mimosas are on the menu; our friend Fiore Tedesco from The Brooklyn Laundry is making egg tacos and other brunch snacks; and you, hopefully, are going to bring your little ones and your dogs! We love it when they come.

Eamon and Justin will be pulling out their best daytime jams, and our special guest will be a gent called Moodymann. Last time Moodymann came to town, he ended up doing an impromptu late-night version of Freaky MF live with The Egyptian Lover providing backup on 808. The time before that he played radio DJ all night long, announcing nearly every song and shouting out people’s birthdays. We never know what to expect with Kenny Dixon, Jr., and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

note. We just got hip to the fact that KDJ did an interview and DJ set on Gilles Peterson’s show on BBC about two years ago. Have a listen. It’s insightful and just plain good.

Lofting with Justin, Eamon and Dixon

Posted on by Eamon Harkin

Mister Saturday Night is back for the fall. We’re trying out a new space and a new format: Lofts only for now. It’s more exciting that way…

Residents Eamon Harkin and Justin Carter are back in full force, coming off a hot summer of gigs at Sunday Best and The Beach Party, where they held their own alongside everyone from Theo Parrish to Justus Kohncke. For the relaunch of Mister Saturday Night, our guest is Mister Steffen Berkhan, also known as Dixon. We’ve been itching to host The Berlin DJ and label boss of Innervisions since we had him at the second season of The Beach Party in the summer of 2007, but he’s a busy man, having only played once in New York since (at the excellent House-n-Home day party last spring). Well, now we’ve got what we wanted.
