From Friday, November 6, through Sunday, November 8, Public Records offers a compact route through several working languages of contemporary club music: a Rotterdam label night anchored by Detroit electro, a London selector whose practice moves among radio, production, and DJ sets, and a Brooklyn-based artist whose work joins diasporic sounds with global-club energy. Louise Chen is the immediate link, billed on both Friday’s Clone Records event and Saturday’s Benji B bill; Sunday shifts the rhythm from late-night programming to a 4 PM anniversary gathering.[1][3][4]

The useful point is scale. Each program activates a different portion of Public Records’ Gowanus campus: Friday and Saturday use Sound Room, The Atrium, and UPSTAIRS, while Sunday’s Tarka anniversary occupies The Atrium and UPSTAIRS. Across those rooms, the weekend frames dance music as a network of labels, individual selectors, long-running scenes, and local organizers instead of a single genre label.[1]

Friday: Clone Records brings a Detroit reference point

Friday’s Clone Records: Serga starts at 11 PM with Serga, Afra, Detroit In Effect, Ak-4ya, and Louise Chen. Detroit In Effect supplies the bill’s clearest historical line: Clone’s own catalog repeatedly tags the project with electro and Detroit, and documents releases in its Clone West Coast Series. That context gives the night a concrete entry into electro’s machine-funk vocabulary while leaving room for the bill’s other selectors to define the route through it.[1][2]

Saturday: Benji B’s selector logic meets a returning connective voice

At 11 PM Saturday, Benji B heads a bill with Cosmo, Louise Chen, Hidden Spheres, and Francis Harris & Tal. Benji B’s agency describes a practice spanning radio broadcasting, record production, musical direction, international club work, and his Deviation nights, a background that makes the breadth of this multi-room listing feel central to the occasion. Louise Chen’s return from Friday makes the two nights read as a deliberate handoff between label-focused electro and a broader curator’s framework.[1][3]

Sunday: Tarka turns the thread toward Brooklyn’s global-club current

Tarka’s 3-Year Anniversary begins at 4 PM Sunday with ZAINAB, Bianca Maieli, Chaia, Zara Dekho b2b Dynoman, Rohana, and additional guests. Ninja Tune identifies ZAINAB as Lahore-born, New York-raised, and Brooklyn-based, describing a DJ and producer shaped by New York hip-hop and underground electronic scenes while building spaces for diasporic sounds and global club music. Ending this three-date route with her places a distinctly local cultural perspective inside a weekend that began with an international label’s Detroit catalog.[1][4]

Planning the three-stop run

All three events take place at Public Records, 233 Butler Street in Gowanus: Clone Records: Serga on Friday, November 6 at 11 PM; Benji B on Saturday, November 7 at 11 PM; and Tarka 3-Year Anniversary on Sunday, November 8 at 4 PM.
