Go-Go a Gojo: a world house music dance party in Downtown Durham

2 stages of deep afro house music, by 6 passionate music selectors, live painting, custom lighting, professional grade audio, the good good.

Between2Clouds and Gojo by Goorsha welcome you to a night of Afro House music galore. Afro House is a dance music which began in South Africa and has now spread to be a global genre with several hubs of music producers crafting gorgeous music within the genre, particularly in South Africa (of course), Germany, Brazil, France, the UK, Mexico, and the USA. The music features gorgeous, triumphant vocals, a diversity of rhythms to move to, pounding kicks to drive you deeper within the sound, and an array of instruments from all over the world that tell a story. Great to dance to and listen to. Every DJ we booked both loves and has a unique library of Afro House and is genuinely excited to share it with y'all. ~~ There are plenty of reasons why this experience is something worth diving into, so instead of throwing too much at ya, I'll keep it to the main features: *2 stages, both outside and inside, so you can bop around to where you feel most magnetized and inspired to be*Spaces to exist that are not on the dance floor, so you can hang out, chat, meet great folks, be coy with that person you brought that you're into but won't make it clear to them because by golly you're too cool for that*Curated visual artists to live paint, show off their work for sale, and hang out with throughout the night. Everyone we work with is also great to hang out with.*Lasers, hasers, delicate touches of lighting, and more to help you settle in to your feet and move.*As mentioned before, the DJs we selected for this one are all passionate about this kind of music and in general they're all great people to just vibe with, even when they are on the dance floor with you.*The venue itself is an Ethiopian inspired and owned venue, that is also owned by the beautiful people that own and operate Goorsha, an Ethiopian restaurant on main street in Downtown Durham. This is what inspired (along with my own personal love and appreciation), doing an all afro-house party.*We work dilligently to improve every event we do, and this is the second in this series. The first was not only an overwhelming success, but a generally gorgeous night in general. We are adding new features, upgrading certain spots of the event, and diving in deeper in this next edition of it!See you soon! http://between2clouds.com/gojo
