Palosanto

Palosanto is a record label and event curator based in Brooklyn, NY. Founded by Oktave, the agency programs a weekly Thursday night series at Arlo Williamsburg featuring house music across afro, deep, and minimal styles.

Palosanto manages a record label, produces events, and curates artists focused on Afro and Melodic House. Founded by Oktave, the agency has built something rare in NYC nightlife: a sustained Thursday night series at Arlo Williamsburg's rooftop that functions as both a weekly gathering and a platform for a growing roster of DJs and producers. The music ranges across organic house, deep house, ethnic house, afro house, and minimal. What animates Palosanto isn't just programming; it's the curation itself. A deliberate resistance to generic club formats in favor of a specific sonic lineage rooted in Black and global dance music traditions.

Never miss a Palosanto performance.
