Watch Tape B and Dr. Fresch take over Times Square in NYC

Tape B and Dr. Fresch take on Times Square, New York City.

Elements Music & Arts Festival surprised fans last week with the announcement of an exclusive pop-up event in the heart of Manhattan. From 5:30 to 7:00 PM on Friday, September 5th, Times Square transformed into a live stage featuring acclaimed bass artist Tape B. Mr. B was joined by genre-blending DJ and producer Dr. Fresch, as the duo turned tables for eager summer fans in Midtown Manhattan.

The event took place on the iconic CitySoul Bus, which has become a recognizable platform for innovative live performances and pop up events. For the first 45 minutes, Tape B and Dr. Fresch performed a highly anticipated back-to-back set, showcasing their unique chemistry in electronic music. The event will conclude with a 45-minute solo set by Tape B, whose rise has positioned him as one of the most in-demand artists in bass music.

This Times Square activation serves as a preview to the larger Elements Music & Arts Festival. Known for combining large-scale production with cutting-edge talent, Elements has established itself as a key player in the U.S. festival circuit. Located on Broadway and 46th Street, the performance drew both festival-goers and unsuspecting passersby into a bewitching cultural experience in one of the city’s busiest intersections. The combination of globally recognized DJs, immersive staging, and the energy of Times Square underscores Elements’ reputation for delivering unforgettable, genre-spanning moments.

Tape B also recently debuted tour dates for the Fall and Winter of 2025. The lionized artist will make pit stops in Houston, Detroit, Asheville, Philadelphia, Montreal, Boston, Chicago, Washington, D.C., Seattle, Los Angeles, and more. Tickets are currently on sale, and fans are buzzing about the live surprises in store, as well as the opportunity to see a rising star shine.

The world would be a better place if we gave, in kindness and in mercy, to those who need it most with no expectation in return.
