As the 1970s gave way to the 80s, New York's party scene entered a ferociously inventive period characterised by its creativity, intensity, and hybridity. This title chronicles this tumultuous time, charting the sonic and social eruptions that took place in the city's subterranean party venues as well as the way they cultivated breakthrough movements in art, performance, video, and film.
