CAFETERIA.FM: CAF + Plush Pop-Up Edition
WE WEREN’T PLANNING TO RUN A RADIO SHOW BUT HERE WE ARE. SETS BY DJ PANZÓN, IOSNUA + NUSNCE B2B MONEYYCATT.
Two Fridays ago, we brought everything you know and love about The CAF to New Haven with a pop-up at Plush. It was more than just a showcase of our latest summer deliveries; it was a blend of two CT pillars colliding which felt long overdue. We carefully curated a selection of pieces from some of our favorite brands, including Jungles, Patta, Kijun, and A Construct. But the highlight was our Friday Night Special activation in collaboration with Szade. The eyewear couple laced us with a limited batch of extra frames to give away to our first 10 customers. Though we no longer are running this promotion, you can still shop some of our remaining inventory here.
To add an extra treat for the occasion, we reached out to our friends at Vino Crudo, who hooked us up with an incredible selection of natural wines. As we have lately been collaborating and co-hosting parties with the crew from On&On Radio, it was a seamless fit to bring them in and support the sound.
First up on the decks was DJ Panzón + iosnua with a 2-hour set filled with Hip-Hop, Latin Jazz, Salsa, and Deep House. Followed up was B2B with Nusnce and Moneyycatt as they served up an arsenal of dance remixes. We also had Kasey Cortez come through and close out the evening.
We can’t thank Plush enough for opening their doors and allowing us to tap in with their community and the New Haven community at large. Connecting with Plush was a long overdue conversation that the owners, Josh and Trev, had been talking about for well over a year. It was amazing to finally make it happen. If you missed out, don’t sweat it. We’ve got more CAF pop-ups on the horizon, and Cafeteria Radio is just getting started. Keep your ear to the ground—you never know where we’ll pop up next.
