Where Were You – A Ron Hardy Documentary Fundrasier Party
Doors 20:00
‘I Was There’ is a documentary in the making on Ron Hardy and the Rise of House Music from Chicago and the Midwest. The film’s aim is to keep Ron’s story alive for future generations as well as putting House’s narrative back in the hands of its originators.
The film will explore the early evolution of House and music as a response to inequality, racism, Reaganomics, the AIDS crisis and civil unrest.
All entry fees will go towards shooting the film’s next interview Chicago in November with the legendary Robert Williams – the man responsible for giving Ron Hardy and Frankie Knuckles their starts, as the founder of The Muzic Box and The Warehouse.
The film is being made with the collaboration and supervision of Bill Hardy and the Hardy Family. Dress to sweat. Doors open at 20:00 Pitch teaser for the film in the links below featuring interviews with Robert Owens and Jamie 3:26.

02/05 TEMPO GALLERY x STAYGOLD presents: Annina, Ian Zunich, Hyperbole & Franco (ar)
Tempo Gallery is coming together with Staygold to release its first ever international party at the Infamous Fitzroy Club. Annina of Zapped Records will be headlining and its just in time for the follow up Saturday from May Day in Berlin. Heading up the Zapped Records Label, Annina, originally from a small country town in Finland is a track-sourcing weapon. This caused a buzz of chatter in the scene after a string of knock-out DJ performances to a packed Wintergarten (Sisyphos) and iconic Golden Gate closing sets in 2022/2023 Annina has continued to blaze a trail through Berlin and beyond having played at venues such as Hoppetosse, Watergate and Culture Box just to name a few. Furthering her skills in the studio she is also making an entry into the world of production with multiple release dates set both on Zapped Records, her own independent Bandcamp and other labels. Following up we have Franco (ar) coming from Tulum he has been travelling all over Europe playing and producing drivey basslines and peaktime moments. His mix of techy, wobbly textures and latin polyrhythms creates a massive sound that brings the club temp up and heavy. His Party series Random Jam has been seen all over the world and brings these sounds to the forefront. Ian Zunich, Founder of Tempo Gallery will be playing after Annina bringing the crowd into the late night with uplifting acid squelchers mixed in with 90s garage and minimal house groovers. Combining the sound of Berlin with his influence of 90s Detroit and electro emotional electronic tracks. Ians productions have been recently featured on Echocentric Records out of Helsinki sitting right next to an Eden Burns remix of Capes track coming also from LA, this show will be kicking off his Berlin/New York tour. Hyperbole will be joining us as well, he is a Berlin-based DJ from Los Angeles. He runs Staygold and is a founding member of Zwischenzeit. Known for high-energy sets rooted in minimal and progressive house, blending deep, rolling basslines with driving grooves and passionate vocals. Focused on building tension and moving the floor through different shades of house.
