October 3rd falls closest to the date this all started. Ten years of putting on the music we believe in, in a city that doesn't always make room for it. We're marking it with the artist who defines what we've been reaching for the whole time. Carlos Souffront returns for this series, and there is no ambiguity about why. Carlos is our reference. When people ask us what we are after in all this, what moves us, what it looks like when someone treats a room as something to be earned rather than filled, we do not have to think about the answer. We point to him. He plays like a man with nothing to prove and everything to say. The arc is long and the payoff is earned, and if you have been in a room with him you know the particular quality of what he does: a cerebral tenacity, a willingness to withhold, an ear that has quietly shaped how a good many of us hear this music at all. Alongside him, Mr. Murray @murraycarole. Her instincts have carved out real ground across the northeast and beyond, as a DJ and as an organizer who intimately understands what these rooms are for and what this culture represents.
