National Sawdust and Gabriela team up for a DJ takeover on Friday the 13th, just ahead of Valentine’s Day. Featuring Eli Escobar and Cosmo, the night brings deep grooves, driving beats, and all-out dancing on National Sawdust’s immersive Meyer Constellation Sound System. This is not a concert. It is a full-room dance floor built for movement, fun, and losing yourself in the sound. Whether you are single, coupled, or dodging Valentine’s plans altogether, this is the place to dance it out before the holiday hits. And on the spookiness of Friday the 13th. Bad luck optional. Good music guaranteed.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

ABOUT ELI ESCOBAR

Eli Escobar, a quintessential New York City DJ, producer, and vinyl enthusiast, has been a pivotal figure in the city’s nightlife for over two decades. Known for his deep-rooted passion for house, disco, and everything in between, Eli’s music embodies the grit, soul, and energy of the city that raised him. His releases on labels like Classic Music Company, Razor-N-Tape, and his own Night People imprint have cemented his reputation as a go-to artist for those seeking timeless dance music.

In 2024, Eli’s output showcased his evolving artistry with a string of notable releases. The Fixed Our Love EP, a collaboration with Queenie, brought together house and nu-disco elements in tracks like “Mon Amour” and “Drown.” Later in the year, his Too Tired to Sleep / Awake release demonstrated his versatility, featuring the standout track “Hollow Girl” with a remix by AceMo. October saw the release of The Airplane Album, a deeply personal project that highlights Eli’s innovative approach to electronic music, with tracks like “St-Nazaire” and “Sugar Plums” featuring Cor.Ece.

Behind the decks, Eli’s sets are raw, soulful, and unpretentious. A beloved fixture in the New York nightlife scene, he continues to electrify dance floors through his residencies at House of Yes and Gabriela—a venue he opened in December 2023 to create a space for community and music. Whether in the studio or on the dance floor, Eli Escobar remains a relentless force, doing what he’s always done: keeping the music alive and the parties unforgettable.
