Sweet New York Performances

“Sweet” is a party series at Honeys led by New York City electronic DJ Ase Manual, built from quick cuts between ballroom-derived movement music, Jersey and Baltimore club, and footwork. The title borrows from “sweet” as a way of naming sensation and appetite, then tests that idea through rhythm: short, percussive phrases that spike and dissolve before comfort settles in. It reads as a local document of how NYC dance floors trade vocabularies across scenes. One clear takeaway is how pace becomes a form of authorship.
