The Florida Room at Delano, A Morgans Hotel, Miami Beach FL


event description
Giant Step and SVEDKA Vodka present the first installment of the SVEDKA Vodka Listening Session series; an exclusive listening party for the hotly anticipated release of The ArchAndroid, hosted by Janelle Monáe.

Her introduction will begin promptly at 10PM, at The Florida Room at Delano, in Miami Beach, FL.

The RSVP list is now closed. If you would like to be invited to future Giant Step events, please sign up for our newsletter.

A Janelle Monáe listening party is unlike any other you have ever been to!!! You will find members of Monáe's Wondaland Arts Society dancing on tables as a visual tapestry accompanies the tripped out melodies and wall shaking rhythms of The ArchAndroid. Bring a friend, wear some dancing shoes, and put your hair in a ponytail. Janelle Monáe is going to play you her album, herself.


(Whether or not the following information came from Ryan Wakeman, WARPA, the Gaiming community or Janelle Monáe's journals, Max Stellings and the Palace of the Dogs Archives is inconclusive at this time... What is known or agreed upon is that this information stems from an official entry on The ArchAndroid Crown in the Living Cyktionary, a 28th Century encyclopedia...)

The ArchAndroid Crown: Designed by Zoman Ignatius, the half-elf, half-human mystic, reportedly 500 years ago. According to legend, the crown has several magic properties, as well as innovative technologies that can be employed only by The ArchAndroid. Zoman was a consummate inventor, artist and sculptor, a cross between Tesla and Da Vinci, and as such, he designed the crown to be a work of beauty that would embody the very spirit of Metropolis. According to legend, the crown features prominent Metropolis buildings and towers that will light up radiantly when the one and only true ArchAndroid wears the crown. According to the Daily Horos, this opulent headdress was stolen from the vaults in the Black House, reportedly by 1954, in October of 2715. Several members of 1954 were hunted down and executed for this crime. But the crown was never found. Many claim it has been secreted away to the Wonderground. There is also word that in the year 2010, several 1954 operatives have crafted a replica of this historic headdress to be worn by Janelle Monáe in anticipation for her album The ArchAndroid…no word on whether or not this replica has magic properties… The Living Cyktionary, 9th Edition, 2719
