A Little bit more info on AfroSonic Collective:
The AfroSonic Collective is four Djs: DubLN, Blackdove, Nick De Paris, & MikeDelick along with live percussion by Jesus Andujar and Caesar Pena. While all coming from different Djaying backgrounds, the Collective came together determined to cultivate a unique sound and build a community that embraces the idea that music can bring people together and celebrate life, love, and dance.

Pioneering a sound that nods to both the past and future, our deep rooted afro soul genre is the driving energy behind our sets. Think - Paradise Garage meets The Shrine - and you'll get an idea of what to expect at our AfroSonic parties. Currently held monthly at State Lounge and The Salon in Providence RI.

About Fela Anikulapo Kuti:
On October 15th, in the Ogun state of Nigeria, a legend was born. His name would be Fela Anikulapo Kuti. He would become an adversary of the Nigerian Government, take multiple wives, declare himself President of his own Republic, Fight as a voice of the people, arrested over 200 times, be thrown into prison and tortured multiple times all the while, inventing a completely new genre of music called Afrobeat by fusing traditional Yoruba rhythms with Highlife, Jazz, Funk and Soul and recording over 70 Albums in his rich life. During the month of his birth, we celebrate the man, his legacy and his music.
