Circus Presents DJ KLEVER, Tonight 1.6.12 at An Tua Nua, $5 with RSVP

Friday, January 6, 2012 at 12:31PM

Allright guys, let’s start the weekend off with properly with a legendary stateside turntablist. Klever hasn’t been to Boston in a few years (to my knowledge) and is one of those guys people always talk about on the message boards and Facebook after he plays a show. DJ-ing is more his forte (as opposed to producing), but he always puts on a show! Mashing up everything from hip hop to breaks, electro, house, and whatever, nobody ought to walk out of An Tua Nua (835 Beacon St., Boston) disappointed.

Let’s let the video do the talking when it comes to his skills!

Also, in case you’ve ever wondered where those DMC gold discs originated, look no further. Slow Roast Records label mate DJ Craze reveals the mystery to both Klever and the rest of the world:

Get there early to see Parallax, Repeat Offenders, Sex Goliath, Voltran, Jeff Gil, and Caezar lay the groundwork in both the front and the back rooms. RSVP here to save five bucks.

Big Party Saturday 8.21.10: Wrecking Ball/True Crew Asylum Reunion

Thursday, August 19, 2010 at 12:06AM

When I post flyers on this site, I generally try to keep them within the greater Boston area as I don’t want to bombard my readers with too many promotional efforts. Every once in a while however I see a party from outside the area that definitely deserves a spot on the homepage of BBD, such as this Saturday’s Wrecking Ball/Asylum reunion.

Wrecking ball boasts a solid lineup of stateside artists, some of who are at riding high at the moment, as well as others who graced the wheels at the original Asylum club in Springfield many times in past years. Although I personally didn’t move out to Boston until 2004, long after the Asylum shut its’ doors, the nightclub was a central point for electronic music within the New England area throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s.

The party goes on all day and tickets are available at www.truecrew.com, along with additional detailed info. I recommend buying pre-sale tickets; although it’s a large venue, door tix are still not guaranteed and you’ll save a bit of cash by taking advantage of buying beforehand. Lineup info below:

HEADLINERS: Excision, Jeru the Damaja, Evol Intent, Charles Feelgood, DJ Funk, Hot Pink Delorean, Terry Mullan, Capital J, Terravita, Hellfire Machina, Odi & MC Posi-D

LOCAL SUPPORT: Big & Dope, Daddy Green Jeans & Mike D, Dan DeSumthn, Dan Garcia & Jay Allegrio, DJ Bane, DJ Caezar, DJ Parallax, DJ Redshift, DL, Dmonyk & DIP, Domonique & Sex Goliath, Earthrok aka D-Money, Eli Wilkie, Entropy, Faction, Flubula, Frydae & Mikey Parkay, Hard Bass Addicts, Havok, Hush & Bons, Jeff Avery, JJ Blades, JSB, Keither, Knowledge, Marc Pastor, MC Elijah Devine, Megrim, Melee, Meszenjah, Midas & Jack McDevitt, PBR STreet Gang, P-Kat, Repeat Offenders, Ritalin, Romeo, Steppo & Knowlton Walsh, Todd Buckler, Tom B Ill & MC Josiah Scribes, Tommie Gunn, Tre

New Years Eve 2010: Dance Music Event Guide For Downtown Boston

Wednesday, December 30, 2009 at 9:50PM

All right folks, this coming Thursday is going to be a busy one! For those who like dance or electronic music, there’s going to be a ton of options for the night. I’ve been planning on doing a post covering the events for awhile but knowing there would be so many I didn’t want it to be overkill, as I’m sure your Facebook and Myspace inboxes are rammed with e-flyers for a lot of these as well.

The way I’m going to do this is I am going to post a small section of the flyer of each party formatted to fit the layout of BBD, and then under it will be some very brief info about the event. From there, it will be linked to the Facebook event which you can access if you want to get additional info. Also, if you need to purchase an advance ticket, I included links for where you can do that also.

I’ll be at New Years Rezolution and most likely Rise for afterhours, so see you guys there. Party safe, yo! And promoters- if there is anything I missed (which I’m sure there will be) do not hesitate to contact me.

PS: The Throwed/Paper party at Rise is the ONLY 18+ event that I am aware of, and their afterhours is the only spot you can get your groove on after 2am! Also, New Years Rezolution is the only one (again, to my knowledge) that will be focusing on the broken beat (dubstep, drum & bass, and breaks).
