Claptone:

“It all started with music, of course. I always stood for an open minded and fun definition of house music. It fills me with joy to host a party that exceeds a simple Claptone DJ-set, a night where I can bring along other artists that I love into venues that have a special vibe, feel, and decor to fit the music. The stunning dancers, breathtaking performers and special surprises that I have in store … I love the sense of mystery that surrounds ‘The Masquerade’. Take the chance to dive into a world where you can be whoever you want to be: A world without boundaries and without judgment. I can’t wait for you to join us dancing under the big golden mask. House is a feeling and ‘The Masquerade’ is its home.”

Claptone is currently on tour in select dates around the globe in support of his recent album ‘Closer’. Quoted as “enlarging Claptone’s legacy even more”, ‘Closer’ has enjoyed global success, showcasing Claptone’s innate ability to blend commercial and underground elements in perfect fashion.
