Lenny’s off this weekend to play a couple dates in Europe representing Thema, with fellow artists on the label as well as waving the Sound Noir flag. Friday night he’ll be in The Netherlands playing the THEMA label night in Eindhoven. He then heads to London the next night to play an undisclosed afterhours location and on Sunday on the Thames River with Flaming Flamingo & Essentialreload Boat Party. A short but sweet tour! He will be back over in early summer with Alka Rex on a longer, multi-city Thema tour, we’ll keep you posted.
Leonardo de la Posso was born and raised in NYC and has been a part of the underground scene for some time. Founder and manager of THEMA Recordings, where he is working to create a multi-artist platform to help cultivate the scene here in NYC and and its presence in the international underground circuit. His motivation lies in the pursuit to positively engage the audience with the most current and obscure sounds of today, as well as yesterday.
Based in New York City, THEMA is a multi-media record label featuring thematic works of music, art and design. Each artist exploring the full spectrum of their discipline, while generating dialogue and collaboration across geographic and disciplinary boundaries. The power of sound and its inflicted emotions are part of the process.
Hello!
One)
We are extra happy with the way the first party turned out – it was great! Thanks to all of you who came by for an hour or twelve and generally speaking misbehaved in the best possible way. Big thanks to our DJs who brought the great ruckus upon the dancefloor. If you only have partial memories of the night worry not – chances are we have documented you in full 5am glory. Many pictures are uploaded to the gallery and more coming.
Two)
And happier yet we are to announce the next party that will happen
on May 15th!
This time we are bringing one of our long-time Detroit favorites – the legendary Rick Wade himself! The man who’s records on Harmonie Park and Yore are regarded as the essence of Detroit house.
He will be followed by another Detroit resident who has recently moved to NY – Mike Servito of Ghostly – a man who is equally adept at mixing the most abstract techno sounds and the girl-melting vocal house.
Earlier on we will have Marcos Cabral of Runaway raising your heart rate while going from discoid to beyond the housy.
And don’t forget the residents Lenny de la Posso of Thema and Helping Hands (aka meself and Amaury) who make it worth attending on their own to tell you the truth hehe.
Being true to our word we are bent on making you dance to the unexpected and undiscovered. After seeing the first party we believe you can do it in a spectacular way.

It sucks when you book a venue 3 mths in advance and then it goes BUST! So long, Vanishing Point!
Sound Noir. We think it’s time for something new altogether — even if it is old really — to connect the dots between quality dance music of the last few decades. Let’s introduce the just-want-to-have-fun crowd to proper dance music. In other words we want to see minimal heads freaking out to disco and models losing it to Detroit techno (which we have seen before but not on the same night). Our goal is to offer quality music at our parties, not just the “in” sound of the moment.
