    Regarding ellipses, according to the Chicago Manual of Style: This admonition embodies the onus of the editor. When entrusted with an author's work—be it fiction or nonfiction, literary or academic—an editor has an unequivocal responsibility to preserve the truth of that work.

    threehz

    threehz is an individual DJ working across electronic and free-form club music, with sets heard in New York City at Public Records. Their work moves between structure and open space, treating the room as a live instrument rather than a fixed playlist.

    The Carry Nation

    The Carry Nation is a performance collective that focuses on creating immersive experiences through music and art, often in nightlife settings.

    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.

    Matas

    Matas

    Matas is a DJ seen in New York City lineups at Nowadays, where long-form nights and patient pacing are part of the room’s culture. He has shared bills with Aurora Halal, DJ Hell, Maara, Lis Dalton, Naone, and Zeynep, including Sustain-Release Nonstop programs that emphasize endurance and range.
