Harvard Bass himself seems to have of beat me to punch this time!! Speedy Gonzales here found my videos right as I was about to post them! Well, either way, check out the videos from Harvard Bass’ crazy fun residency launch party at Voyeur nightclubon Thursday, October 28th!
We’re happy that our hometown hero in the electronic music world, Harvard Bass, will be gracing the decks at Voyeur even more now! Hip hop hooray!!!!
*Also* check out the videos from Justin Martin’s amazing set the same night Here!
Because not everyone wants to listen to “The Monster Mash” to get into the ghoulish, get down and party spirit.
With a little help from some of my trusted friends and tastemakers, we put together this list of creepy beats and haunting melodies to get you in the Halloween mind set, and to keep your bodies hot and movin’ while you strut your stuff, in what you may refer to as your, very little, costume attire. With fake eyelashes, mustaches, breasts, blood or whatever in place what Halloween is all about is having a good time, getting filthy on the dance floor, and looking as slutty and weird as possible while doing so. Here are beats that will turn your pregame sesh into absolute debauchery before the real frightful festivities even go down…
GOOD MIX TIPS: Be sure to keep your theatricality and your disguises in check — just because you’re playing bad cop doesn’t give you any excuse to talk back to the real ones. Do you really want your parents picking you up in jail looking like a depraved tooth fairy or a strung out Wonder Woman? Do you really want ANYONE for that matter seeing you like that!? I didn’t think so. Be safe, don’t have sex with anyone who thought being Lady Gaga or “Hide yo’ kids Antoine” was an original costume idea, and have fun.

All of our favorite local deckmasters will be spinning, including Bubblegum Sci Fi, Headshake, Erick Diaz, Adam Salter, Craig Smoove, and so many more!!!! And, they’ve just added this massively brilliant and ever-so-beautiful LED lightwall for our collective aesthetic delight. I can already feel my face melting just at the very thought of it… It’s going to be so special friends, I can’t wait to share this moment with you.

I don’t think I need to remind anyone of how obsessed I am with Don Diablo. And if I do then, well, I figure you’ve got the jist by now.
The new positively pop, swing your hips and your hair extensions to dance floor collaboration between Dutch hunk Don Diabloand Dragonettehas infectious hooks that will have you smiling for days.
The track isn’t out yet in the States (currently only out in Belgium and Holland) but here’s a preview for those who can’t wait a day or two for the real thing to drop. Don Diablo ft. Dragonette – Animale (PREVIEW) by dondiablo
The uplifting and vivacious affect this track will have on the kids inside the clubs, contrasts somewhat with the dark and depraved yet heart-flutteringly familiar and welcomed facetious theme that was chosen for the official music video. I believe the reference to the maniacal tale from the novel or for you literary-phobes, the film, Requiem for a Dream, is quite obvious, and the playful twist the director chose to infuse in his or her own version, curiously causes the viewer to crave the very fruit that evokes devastation in this particular plot line.
If you’ve not the slightest bit intrigued by citrus by the end of this video, you have the willpower of no less than seven nuns. More power to ya.
As for the rest of you, who wants to do mothafucking orange slices in the bathroom stalls and fucking partyyyyy?!?!?!
Bonus Points!!!!: Datsik Dubstep Remix
All your prayers have already been answered! The free download available for your aural feasting, the Datsik Dubstep remix is actually quite the highly danceable reflip of the pop track and could seamlessly sneak onto those club dance floors without too much tempo lull and bpm infuriation. As a matter of fact, the remix is quite positively fun and I think DJs will indeed look forward to dropping this track onto even the most indie electro loving hipster-filled dance floors.
Whooooaaaaaaaa Dirty Bird definitely made a HUGE and very impressive presence at Voyeur on Thursday, October 28th. Minimalism reigned king whenJustin Martinof San Fran’s clucktastic fantastic tech house cult by the name of Dirty Bird Records took the decks at Voyeur. I know, I know. The night was meant to be a celebration for Harvard Bass – being knighted into the highly regarded kingdom that is Voyeur — as the goth LED lit haven’s newest resident DJ. However, I think it’s important we all just take a second and step back, and take a look at this damn fine fellow Justin Martin. The man, JM, absolutely slashed and murdered the dance floor, with sleek as freshly sharpened steel beats and deep cutting grooves.
My favorite videos and some tunes from the night are after the jump so be kind, click the “more” & have a look please.
I hope you have your costume ready. I also hope it’s really cute and in my size, because I’ll need to borrow it. More on that later. Call me. And while we’re at it, join me for terrifyingly Terrifique activities that I will be participating in this All Hallow’s Eve Weekend. My weekend starts early (today) partially because of the drinking problem, but mostly because there’s so much Scaryfique (somebody stop me) stuff going on that it has to! Let me point you in the right direction to get your festivities all festive-like. I’ve got Thursday, Friday and Saturday-day covered. I’ll leave your Saturday night up to you – I can’t make all your decisions for you, you know. Plus, you probably already have plans, right? I mean, you didn’t invite me to them, but that’s okay. I probably have something better to do, anyway.
Calvin Harris’ very special touch on those dance floor favorites of ours and a whole array of other sparkly pop favorites, caused smiles to sweep across Voyeur Nightclub’s tightly packed dance floor on Monday night. It was almost as if Calvin Harrisjust knew… He just knew exactly how to make us go absolutely wild. And that he did.
Yes, AND it was a MONDAY night.
You heard that right.
When Voyeur announced they were completely sold out that night, they certainly weren’t exaggerating by any means. It’s been quite some time that I’ve actually seen Voyeur COMPLETELY packed, floor to ceiling. All those tightly-packed moving bodies caused an incredible nonstop wave of motion that lasted ALL night long.
