LAVO NEW YORK
Crowds of people surrounded New York’s most exclusive nightclub as word got out that DJ Redfoo from the electric rap duo, LMFAO, was in the building. Walking into Lavo, it was clear that everyone came to party rock with their multi-color glow necklaces, bling’d out nerd glasses and fluorescent tanks.
As soon as DJ Redfoo, DJ Air and the Party Rock Crew hit the stage, the energy in the club went through the roof. Clubbers rushed to the dance floor while others stood on their seats and pumped their fists in the air.Sidney Samson, a Dutch producer and DJ known best for his smash hit “Riverside” (which made it to #1 on the Dutch Top 40 and #2 on the UK Singles Chart) graced the city of New York with his presence on Thursday, June 23rd at one of the city’s hottest clubs, Lavo.
Since its opening in September 2011, Lavo has quickly become recognized for their DJ line up of electronic dance music masters, which would explain why Strategic Group’s Noah Tepperberg and Jason Strauss brought in Sidney Samson to fill the floor and top the tables with dancing bodies.
Noah Tepperberg said it right. "Every great club has a disco ball." And, LAVO has that and more. In its infancy, LAVO is quickly standing out as the bright light in New York City nightlife. Doubling as a restaurant and A-List celebrity nightclub, LAVO has some impressive events lined up for October. Check it out!

ERICK MORILLO Erick Morillo's name is synonymous with great house music, from his years spent in the best DJ booths around the world, to his decade-plus experience running his Subliminal Records label, to his collaborations with top producers, from Diddy to DJ Rap. Currently at the end of yet another season DJing at Pacha Ibiza for his weekly Subliminal Sessions, his schedule wont get any lighter with his Halloween USA takeover with back to back gigs at LAVO New York and TAO Las Vegas. He says: "I'm really excited to return home and break in the soundsystem at LAVO New York over Halloween weekend. I'll be bringing the global clubbing experience straight from Ibiza to New York for a very freaky Halloween. It'll be house music all night long!" You can catch a preview through his Subliminal Sessions podcasts, available at erickmorillo.com. With a raised DJ booth balanced elegantly between a sunken dance floor and a world-famous disco ball, the best of LAVO is yet to come as New York waits to see what the new venue has in store for New Year's Eve!
We've been hearing about this venue's new Manhattan location for quite some time now, and everyone wants to know, 'When does it open?' ...
The official answer is September 15th!!!
Glad there is finally an answer to the unanswered question.
Next week: the drink list. Stay tuned...
