The Loft était une discothèque informelle située à New York aux États-Unis. L'idée du Loft, c'est-à-dire de soirées musicales privées réservées à un club, ses membres et leurs invités, est née dans l'esprit de David Mancuso qui dès 1966 organisait des moments musicaux pour ses amis. Le succès de ces rassemblements lui donna l'envie de formaliser ce rituel. La première de ces soirées privées officielles eut lieu en 1970, intitulée Love Saves The Day. Elles devinrent ensuite hebdomadaires à partir de 1971. * Portail de la musique * Portail de la musique électronique rdf:langString

Since then, the term "The Loft" has come to represent Mancuso's own version of a non-commercial party where no alcohol, food, nor beverages are sold. Mancuso's vision of a private party is similar to, and inspired by, the rent party and house party. Unlike conventional nightclubs or discotheques, attendance is by invitation only. In the late 1970s, Mancuso abandoned the generally accepted and expected practice of beatmatching, preferring to play songs in their entirety on his renowned audiophile-quality sound system. The Village Voice wrote that Mancuso's sound system was the best in New York and even described him as "more of a p rdf:langString

Mancuso required that the music played had to be soulful, rhythmic, and impart words of hope, redemption, or pride.
