Description

Santos' Party House is co-owned by Andrew W.K., a crazy-eyed power-metal singer and occasional motivational speaker responsible for the song "Party 'Til You Puke." W.K.'s aura pervades the venue, best represented by the encouraging signs taped onto the walls, such as "Dancing is Unrestricted" and "Please Continue Drinking." The performers--a weekly mix of DJs, rappers, and indie rockers--inhabit Santos' two floors: the musky, black-bricked basement and the spacious Roman pillar-supported room upstairs. Both are decorated with disco balls, but it's the latter that possesses W.K.'s mechanical counterpart, a 150,000-watt speaker system.

  • 2008 | Best New Dance Floor

    After three years in the making, Santos' Party House finally opened the doors to its 8,000-square-foot, multilevel space last June (or May, depending on whom you talk to and whether or not they got in)--and the party has rarely stopped since then. Legendary Studio 54 stalwart Nicky Siano spins on Sunday nights; A Tribe Called Quest's Q-Tip joins DJ Rich Medina on Fridays; and every other Wednesday belongs to Special Disco Version, which puts the dance floor in the incredibly capable hands o...

    BLOW YOUR HEAD

    By Nick Murray | Wed, April 11, 2012

    On the surface, an odd matchup: What does punk rock have in common with moombahton, the dance subgenre that Dave Nada accidentally invented when he slowed club records (like Afrojack's "Moombah" remix) to reggaeton speeds. But if anyone can make t... More »

    At 46, J Mascis has more going on right now than most of the indie-rock youngsters he has inspired: an upcoming Dinosaur Jr. album, a debut out next month by his new group Heavy Blanket, and a one-off Witch gig tonight before that doom-metal outfi... More »

    'Discovery' w/ Chez Damier+Kai Alcé

    By | Wed, February 01, 2012

    Music Institute veterans Chez Damier and Kai Alcé were in Detroit for techno’s birth, but they both explore a broader house sound than most of the locals that that seminal club hosted. Damier has spent much of his career back in Chicago, where he ... More »

    A million-dollar soundsystem is only as good as the artists using it. Luckily, Santos books good talent and serves as a comfortable space for them to perform in.

    After three years in the making, Santos' Party House finally opened the doors to its 8,000-square-foot, multilevel space last June (or May, depending on whom you talk to and whether or not they got in) - and the party has rarely stopped since then. Legendary Studio 54 stalwart Nicky Siano spins on Sunday nights; A Tribe Called Quest's Q-Tip joins DJ Rich Medina on Fridays; and every other Wednesday belongs to Special Disco Version, which puts the dance floor in the incredibly capable hands of LCD Soundsystem duo James Murphy and Pat Mahoney. Add one-offs with co-owner Andrew WK himself, and you've got the one Manhattan club for which the hip kids will actually cross the river to dance.
