They love thick drums, big basslines, hypnotic grooves and tripped-out sci-fi synthesizers, and know how to put it all together.

In 2010, Sleepy & Boo launched their own headlining residency at New York’s renowned nightclub Cielo. Their monthly “Sleepy & Boo + Friends” party features the duo playing an extended headlining set of cutting edge underground music on the club’s pristine Funktion One sound system, with eager music-lovers packing the club’s dancefloor every second Friday of the month. Coming up on it’s second anniversary, the party has become a showcase event for their range as DJs, merging the newest dancefloor tunes with lost classics. They have also been regular fixtures at District 36, the Big Apple’s newest super club, which opened in late 2010. At the midtown venue with its already-legendary Gary Stewart sound system, they have presented Basic NYC parties and opened for a huge range of international guests. Apart from their own events, the duo is consistently DJing at the best parties and venues in New York, and work regularly with the city’s most important event organizers. They’ve played at the first two installments Made Event’s Electric Zoo Festival; the inaugural edition of the Dance.Here.Now. festival at Governor’s Island; performed at some of LiveNations’ massive Roseland events (including the historic six-date deadmau5 shows in October) and have rocked dancefloors around the world in England, Germany, Japan and Spain (including sets at Ibiza’s legendary Space, Amnesia and Pacha clubs). Recent regional dates have included appearances at DC’s U Street Music Hall, Monteal’s Velvet speakeasy, Philadelphia’s brand-new Rumor nightclub and Connecticut’s Room 960. Sleepy & Boo are also regular fixtures at the annual Miami Winter Music Conference and Ultra events, where they have presented their own daytime outdoor events at the Beach Plaza Hotel, and spoken as panelists at the 2011 conference itself. Sleepy & Boo have worked tirelessly to bring quality, cutting-edge dance music to New York’s clubbers, both through their own DJ sets, and the events they organize.
