About This Event
Joy Orbison headlines a bill at Knockdown Center with New York DJs x3butterfly and abobeprincess. The lineup places O’Grady’s post-dubstep palette—house, UK garage and jungle—and his emphasis on tight rhythmic construction alongside x3butterfly’s live-minded, close-listening transitions and abobeprincess’s bass-forward, R&B‑informed pacing and clarity.
About the Artists
Joy Orbison
Joy Orbison, also known as Joy O, is the alias of English producer and DJ Peter O’Grady, a key figure in the post-dubstep continuum that threads house, UK garage, UK funky, and jungle. He first drew underground attention with early Hotflush releases and later work alongside collaborators like Boddika.
x3butterfly
x3butterfly is a New York City–based electronic artist and DJ who moves between club logic and live performance. Recent appearances at The Woodshop and Million Goods place them in the city’s small-room circuit, where sets are built for close listening as much as for dancefloor momentum.
abobeprincess
abobeprincess is a New York City–based DJ and electronic artist working across club music and Hip-Hop/R&B. Their sets have appeared at Knockdown Center and the Ruins at Knockdown Center, often in lineups that put local selectors beside touring headliners.
