| Event: Deep, Dark & Dangerous Venue: Monarch DJs: J. Kenzo, Truth, Nebakaneza Music: dubstep, sub-bass Cover: $15 |
Monarch, although it is an icon of the city's house and techno scene, it also has weekly Tuesday bass nights, and boy can they bring in quite a crowd, and quite a headliner. J:Kenzo is a big name out of the London bass scene. We write dubstep, but you know the Brits do it all differently. And it really is deep, dark and dangerous. It's time to get subterranean on Tuesday. (ML) |

Event: Housepitality
|
Another Wednesday night means another Wednesday night at the House Pit. Or the Pit of House. Or whatever other nicknames you have given it by now. This week the crew changes gears a little bit, shifting away from the pure Chicago house sound to some German beats, i.e. techno and tech-house. Nothing to complain about there. Tonight they're bringing out Stefan Goldmann, who has released on labels like Perlon, who also release for a little known guy called Ricardo Villalobos, as well as Ovum, home of Steve Bug and Dominik Eulberg. Now that's a good resume. (ML) |
Event: Qoöl
|
Every Wednesday, Harlot takes in a Qoöl breeze of fun music and tasty drinks for the after-work crowd. Happy hour is rarely so animated and music-driven, so Qoöl is really bringing something special to the table. Speaking of special, this week's guest are the top residents of the ever-lauded Pink Mammoth crew. You can guarantee to brighten up your week if you make this your Wednesday hotspot. After Qoöl, stay late to enjoy Harlot's monthly party Spectrum featuring Martin Aquino. (CG) |

| Event: Happy Ending: The Second Coming Venue: Project One DJs: Psynthetic, Infinite Sun, Tobal, Khromata Music: psytrance Cover:$5 |
Happy Ending is keeping the psytrance scene alive in San Francisco. While you think that our hippie roots and leftist tendencies would make this genre thrive, it seems we're all wrapped up in that house/techno game. Well, not all of us. These folks have been hosting a monthly afternoon psytrance party for two years, and have most recently relocated to Project One. The event starts at 6pm, so come right after work. There will be food trucks for your dinner delights, and psytrance for your ticket to otherworldly sensations. Enjoy a giant jump-around and mingle with this strong community to figure out what really is going on with the SF psytrance scene. Oh, and if you feel like it, report back! (ML) |

Join JoeJoe, Jive and Matt Haze, as well as their friends, as they drop funky beats in support of bringing Heartfullness home. (CQ) |

| Event: BLVD 10-year Anniversary Celebration Venue: The Independent DJs: BLVD, Pink Mammoth Music: live electronica Cover: $18-20 |
In an era when "live set" means pushing a couple buttons on a flimsy MIDI controller, BLVD has proven their ability to perform live while continuing to make some of the most innovative and relevant electronic dance music. Founded in San Francisco, BLVD combines traditional instruments with a slew of analog synths and drum machines, oftentimes performing with improvisational elements. The group draws heavily from acid, techno, and deep house to create a sound that is unmistakably born from dance genres of the late 1990s. For their anniversary celebration, BLVD will perform material released on their early albums. (DF) |

They are no small potatoes, and y'know what, neither are their sounds. (ML) |
