alphabetsheaven is a producer of wonky instrumentals from Brighton, UK. Affiliated with great beat music labels like king deluxe and project mooncircle, his crunchy beats approach some kind of mystical. His Boosh! Ep was one of the finest beat releases to come out last year. Local bass music experimentalists Seafloor and Photay also bring their own original beats, alongside the residents (who we always gush about so we won’t this time). RSVP to get in for $5 instead of 10.

SCI FI & FANTASY present RELEASE: Galcher Lustwerk, Mayster, Contakt, Max McFerren, Grayson Revoir, Lamin Fofana at Breadbox 291 Kent [10PM/FREE]
Ep release party for Turrbotax resident Mayster. His Premise EP is the 6th release from SF&F, and the centerpiece is undoubtedly the supremely NSFW vocal cut Story of Us. But the whole crew is a talented bunch, with many unique and discriminating takes on house and techno. At free.99, this is definitely the best deal of the night.

100% Discovery: Octo Octa, Policy, Alex Burkat, Free Magic & Faso at Glasslands [11:30PM/$10]
Our favorite disco party teams up the prolific LA-based lofi house music label 100% Silk for a totally stacked lineup. If there were such a thing as fantasy DJ leagues, Policy would be an MVP – every set he plays is fantastic.

Fixed x Verboten: Dusky, Miguel Campbell, JDH & Dave P at Sullivan Room [10PM/$20-25]
Dusky epitomizes the kind of super-clean, bassline-heavy house that people keep mislabelling as “Deep”. Regardless, it’s bouncy, funky and fun as hell – you’ve definitely had this tune stuck in your head before. Miguel Campbell comes from the Hot Creations camp, which typically has a more commercial, Ibiza-ish sound than we usually feature on this blog, but his essential mix is heavy on the funk, so we’re bettin this one is worth your while.
