Giant Step's biweekly DJ series at Hudson welcomes renown DJ Joaquin 'Joe' Claussell on Monday, October 19.

Joaquin 'Joe' Claussell (Sacred Rhythm Music, Spiritual Life) might be one of NY’s best kept secrets. Although, he has enjoyed tremendous success throughout the world for his unique DJing style, his appearances in NYC have been sparse. He is part of the legendary Body & Soul Crew, but his musical roots start way before the days when Sunday Afternoons were the place to BE in NYC. Many would describe his DJing as one playing an instrument; imagine Jimi Hendrix on the decks. Thanks to his innate ability to collide musical worlds, he has garnered a worldwide following for his unique productions and remixes allowing him to cross paths with numerous outstanding artists such as Herbie Hancock, Manuel Gottsching, Nina Simone, Femi Kuti and many more.

Although he is homegrown in NYC, he cosmically transcends this world. Make sure you don't miss this rare appearance with Giant Step.


As New York City's premier Monday night event for the last two years, the Hudson has consistently seen a curated roster of DJ legends and pioneering artists as wide-ranging as Louie Vega, Afrika Bambaataa, Jazzanova, Bobbito and Danny Krivit, playing styles from soulful house, Latin, hip hop, jazz, funk and more. Mark your calendars for quality music and dancing at Hudson.
