Friday April 22 ***THE BUNKER***
DOWNSTAIRS: Derek Plaslaiko (Ghostly | NYC) Kendra Borowski (Robot Love Songs | NYC) Derek is one of the best DJs we've heard. Dude never, ever f*cks up a mix, and his excellent track selection always keeps the trainspotters on their toes. Ghostly has this to say: "Derek Plaslaiko delves into the realm of dance music in which the head and body are equally active. The records he plays click and whirl inside the brain while the low end keeps the body busy. Mixing lush techno with jackin' house and a healthy dose of Detroit classics, Plaslaiko is known for his creative track selection, seamlessly woven by pin-point mixing skills that rival international DJs like Richie Hawtin, Marco Carola, and Laurent Garnier (all of whom Plaslaiko has shared deck time with)." Kendra is one of the residents at Boston's new Future/Retro weekly Friday party. She is known for playing deep minimal tunes that fall into the catagory of either robot love songs or underwear dance party anthems. She's been a friend and a supporter for a long time, and we're thrilled to finally get her behind the decks at the Bunker. She will warm up the room for the insanity that will follow. plus ... resident DJ: Spinoza visualists: Chris Jordan, Giles Hendrix Fridays at Tonic/subTonic 107 Norfolk Street (212)358-7501 free, 21+, 9p-4a more info, upcoming guests, heavy rotation - http://www.klever.org/thebunkernyc UPCOMING: 05/06: DJ Abstract (Pallette, Intl DJ Gigolos | NYC) SAT 5/7: Mini-Mutek NYC Akufen (Force Inc, Perlon, Mutek | Montreal) Deadbeat (~scape | Montreal) Vincent Lemieux (Musique Risquee | Montreal) Crackhaus (Musique Risquee, Mutek | Montreal) Someone Else (FoundSound, Musik Krause | Philadelphia) Hearthrob (M_nus | NYC) Socks and Sandals (Love and Cush, Microcosm | NYC) Gys (zer0 g | Boston) qpe (the Agriculture | NYC) doily (Broklyn Beats | Brooklyn) 05/13: Suburban Knight (Underground Resistance | Detroit) DJ Dex (Underground Resistance | NYC) Archetype (Black Nation, Ongaku, Theory | Columbus, OH)
