Lights Down Low: Party Preview

Two of the biggest DJ-producers of the last decade are coming together, high school reunion style, this Friday at Mighty. Both Skream and Scuba launched their careers at roughly the same time (2003) in England, as they began developing a unique, bass-heavy sound that would soon come to be known as "dubstep" (which meant something quite different back then in England than it does in America today). These days, they've moved on from that sound: Scuba is exploring atmospheric techno and Skream has started to produce funky disco-house. Their selections (as DJs) roughly match the kind of music they make these days, as Scuba hews towards deep-space techno and hypnotic tech-house, while Skream is fond of bass-heavy U.K.-styled house music with a bit of disco to whet the appetite. Lights Down Low's resident DJs Corey Sizemore and Richie Panic will be on hand to get the party started, per usual.

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
