In 1987 the hottest underground party in the otherwise tourist-swamped Bahamas was “Neon Nassau” at the quayside Sailors Social Club. Retired boat captains, off-duty lifeguards, and suburban teens hiding away from their parents worked up a sweat to calypso, dancehall reggae, disco soca, freestyle, yacht rock, and electro boogie.

This is the first in a series of late-night, dress-up dance parties that our Music Co-Directors, Tim 'Love' Lee and Scott Anderson, are throwing as The Capricorn Dream Sound Machine. They'll take you on a world tour of some of the most famous, but entirely fictional, hot spots from the last 100 years. For each event we'll be collaborating with Wassaic Project artists to help bring the dream alive!

Other parties include ¡Viva Democracía! (1977, Cádiz, Spain) on July 20, Hi-Fashion Lo-Life (1997, Shoreditch, East London, UK) on September 7, and the (always-sold-out-early) Monster's Ball on October 26th.
