Rhythm and Roots serves as a bridge between ancestral sound and future soul, featuring a collaborative performance by Joe Claussell and Eddie Fowlkes. The event emphasizes a ritualistic dancefloor experience, drawing from Afro-Caribbean rhythms, gospel, and sacred percussion alongside the pioneering Techno Soul sound of Detroit. Hosted at House of Yes in Brooklyn, the night enforces a strict no-phones policy to encourage connection and presence. The atmosphere is designed to be immersive, blending live instrumentation with deep, hypnotic electronic textures.
