We’ve never been to one of Wolf + Lamb’s alarmingly intimate—we’re talking 50 people, tops—Marcy Hotel parties, but here’s what Ghostly International founder Sam Valenti IV had to say about them the other day: “The Marcy Hotel is a tangible manifestation of the Wolf + Lamb ethos. Reverential to history, though perfectly tweaked, with a detail and character that is distinctly their own. The space is the party, is the label, is the music.”
Come to think of it, maybe we should just let the following mix speak for itself. Available as a DJ-Kicks bonus disc at indie shops overseas, “5 Years At the Marcy” is a fitting tribute to watching the sun come up among Omar-S, Kate Bush, Jay-Z, and a room full of your nearest—and soon to be dearest—friends. Not to mention the perfect complement to the main event itself, a friends and family sparring session with the duo’s labelmates/Marcy Hotel regulars Soul Clap.
