It was a balmy 90 degrees in NYC on July 12. As the sun began to set on the Hudson river, party people lined up to board the Circle Line cruise ship and spend four hours dancing to the beats of George FitzGerald. The party is called "Zeitgeist at Sea" and was hosted by popular Brooklyn nightclub, Verboten.

The UK producer/DJ kept the crowd going all evening with amazing house tracks and a breathtaking background of Manhattan. Hot off the release of his album Fading Love, FitzGerald has received a lot of praise and adoration in the electronic music community. Here are 10 fashionable folks we met aboard the ship.
