Jan. 14: Francois K, Danny Krivit, Joaquin "Joe" Claussell at Pacha NYC

Jan 3, 2007 1:03 PM

Body & Soul continues to celebrate 10 years this Martin Luther King weekend under the same underlying themes of unity and spirit through music and dance. Body & Soul’s legacy began in 1996 when British promoter John Davis and DJ/Producer/Remixer Francois-K launched the party at club Vinyl in New York City and were joined by residents Joaquin "Joe" Claussell and Danny Krivit. This landmark party was the first New York dance party with 3 resident DJ's playing together as one.

The Body & Soul Sundays became an international mecca for dance music lovers seeking to enjoy all forms of music with all the freedom of expression granted on a unified dancefloor. The party was a unique place for everyone to feel welcome, regardless of age, sex, color or social attributes. It was a utopian dancefloor for those seeking inspiration, solace and a renewed expression of the unique and joyous nature of The Party. After 6 long years at the club, Body & Soul continued their mission with three hugely successful outdoor events at Central Park Summerstage and private events for Giorgio Armani as well as live events in Italy, Portugal, Brazil and Japan to name a few. This July 2006 marked the Body & Soul 10 year anniversary celebration at MOMA’s P.S.1 Warm Up Sessions with a crowd turnout in excess of 7,000 revelers. This January 2007, Body & Soul recreates the party in an indoor venue, inviting all dance music lovers to come find freedom on the dancefloor for one and for all!

The Body & Soul Volume 5 compilation will be released this April 2007 followed by an international tour.
