Phase 3 Presents: Green Velvet

Chicago house and techno figure Green Velvet brings his synth-heavy, track-driven sound to Sable Miami for a late-night set presented by Phase 3. Phase 3 Presents: Green Velvet takes place Saturday, June 13, at the intimate Wynwood venue. The 21-and-over event highlights an artist whose work has helped define both playful, vocal-driven club tracks and harder-edged underground dance music.

Born Curtis Jones, Green Velvet first made his mark under the name Cajmere with early 1990s Chicago house releases including “Coffee Pot (It’s Time for the Percolator)” and “Brighter Days,” his collaboration with Dajae. He later launched Cajual Records and Relief Records, two labels that became important outlets for Chicago house and techno. The Green Velvet alias introduced a more eccentric, electronic-forward persona, heard on tracks such as “Flash,” “La La Land,” “Lazer Beams” and “Answering Machine.”

At Sable Miami, audiences can expect a set rooted in the energy of Chicago club culture, moving through house, techno and the bold, off-kilter sound that has made Green Velvet a lasting presence on dance floors worldwide.
