blisspop dc fun 1 year anniversary bk



Blisspop DC, FUN 1 Year Anniversary BK, Space Cakes BK and more

I've been a big fan of Will Eastman and all of the good things he is

doing down in D.C. His Blisspop party is the big one, the monthly

rager that brings it all together at 9:30 Club (815 V Street NW) This

one looks like the biggest and best yet, so it's not surprising that

it's called Best Party Eva. 33HZ will play live, Dave Nada, DJ Meistro

and Mr. Eastman himself will spin all night and you should be psyched

for this one, District of Columbians! Sponsored by Scion and

brightestyoungthings.com, this should be a great night of indie dance,

hip-hop, disco, house, great band, great DJs. What the hell, best eva.

$12, all ages, doors at 10pm. Take a minute and check out the video

flier for this one, Pound for Pound goes viral:

-It's a big night in Williamsburg, nothing bigger than the one year

anniversary party for FUN at Studio B (259 Banker St) They've clearly

chosen their special guests for maximum Pound for Pound attention :

electro legends Egyptian Lover and Newcleus. I mean, seriously, this

is huge. It's not every day you get to take a trip back to the early

80s glory days, when machine music took over. Egg Foo Young of

Turntable Lab is special guest DJ with residents Rok One and Eamon

Harkin. There's also a NewYorkFuckinCity side room with DJ Elle and

IXL, all your musical needs you should be covered. Hosted by Roxy

Cottontail, presented 10 Deep, Re:Up Magazine and TTL, this is a

fitting celebration for one of the city's best weekly. Open bar from

10-11, $10 advanced ticket, $13 at the door, doors at 10pm, 21+.

-Great party at Hugs tonight that appears to be called Space Cakes,

not totally sure what the name means, but I do know that the DJs on

hand are some of my favorites from NYC. Nick Catchdubs, Star Eyes and

Rezound are joined by Seattle's Pretty Titty for this one. This one

should be a fun, laid back night, as all of these DJs will spin great

music from all genres. No cover, 21+.

-Still in Williamsburg, the Finger On The Pulse guys do their regular

thing at Royal Oak (592 Union Ave) Tonight's edition is a birthday

edition for Courtney featuring Heidy and Trebek of Montreal's Guilty

Pleasures and Weekends Never End and of course Never Forget and Terry

Diabolik. You know the deal, fun times, dancing, drinking, stop in

early or late or stay all night. No cover, 21+.

-If you have to be in the city, there's one top choice and that's the

Stop Progress party at APT (419 W. 13th St) where resident Max Pask is

joined by DFA's Mock and Toof in the basement. Those names should have

you already super psyched, so I won't hold you back. $10, 21+,

awesome.

-I'm amazed at how much LA loves to do it big. Each night seems to

have another massive party featuring some of the best of the local

DJs. Tonight, it's the Hype LA party at Robertos (686 N. Spring St)

with resident DJ Don't Believe The Hype being joined by guests DJ S!n

and Hyphy Crunk in the main room. The side room is held down by guests

Disk Jo Slim, Dmndays and Bul!m!atron. Expect big music all night, new

ravelectro, Bmore, indie in both rooms. RSVP at the going.com site for

$5 admission before 10:45, $10 otherwise. 18+, doors at 10pm, goes

until 2am.

-The Mute party at the Proof Bar (215 N. Broadway) in Santa Ana has

been a really consistent party, bringing in quality DJs week after

week. Tonight, they host My! Gay! Husband!, who we mentioned earlier

in the week. The Iheartcomix dude is definitely worth checking out, he

will help DJ Legit, DJ Ben N. and Rockberry take this to the next

level. Doors at 9, no cover, 21+.

-Let's end with one of the most consistent parties anywhere, the

Lights Down Low party in San Fran. Tonight at the 222 Club (222 Hyde @

Turk), things are going back on some War Games 80s computer nerd shit.

Laromlab brings along his Commodore 64, Atari, laptop and samplers to

create computer music, which fits well with the name of the guest DJ,

Commodore 69. Residents Sleazemore and Rchrd Oh will smash computers

and melt your faces with dirty dance music. Parker Day takes the

photos, you need to be a part of this party.
