In 2002, DJ Ayres, DJ Eleven and Cosmo Baker AKA The Rub began with a simple goal to create a classics and hip hop party on the first Saturday of every month at Southpaw. However, it was the approach that made it click. The Rub do it Brooklyn style: great dance music mixed well, real people; no dress code, no bottle service and no VIPs. The combination of great music, a hot and sweaty dance floor, and phenomenal word-of-mouth buzz for their parties has brought people there for their unparalleled mix of hip hop, disco, 80s, reggae, funk, house and everything in between keeps them coming back.

The Rub has been widely recognized as the best club night in New York City for several years. It was named both "the best party in Brooklyn to dance sweatily to smart music" by the Village Voice and "the best party in NYC" by The New York Press. Having smashed it at our 8th Hudson party in 2008, Giant Step is pleased to welcome them back.

As New York City's premier Monday night event for the last two years, the Hudson has consistently seen a curated roster of DJ legends and pioneering artists as wide-ranging as Louie Vega, Afrika Bambaataa, Jazzanova, Bobbito and Danny Krivit, playing styles from soulful house, Latin, hip hop, jazz, funk and more. Mark your calendars now for quality music and dancing at Hudson to come.
