The Drum Machine Report


Like the air temperature this winter, the climate of collective consciousness is constantly fluctuating in Buffalo. Us positivists are constantly shielding a barrage of bitterness and negativity grown out of many years of hardship and loss. Alas, we are the weight to balance these ideas, the youthful minds who will soon take over this city and lift it forward into the future! The work of change is never-ending, and only willing will rise up.

With the new year comes new happenings. It is a blessing to have some fresh things going on with a couple of new events happening this Friday. The Drum Machine Report focuses on what events and parties are going on that feature all styles of dance music every weekend in the Queen City. Check out what's happening now:

friday 1/11
10p

NEKTAR
451 Elmwood Ave. Buffalo, NY
The Guestbook Party is a fresh party for designed for Buffalonians who love EDM to experience something cutting-edge. The idea is to trend away from the misconstrued ideas of what dance music is currently on Chippewa. Lets face it, Buffalo nightclubs are trashy and stupid by comparison to those in big cities. But we as patrons of these venues, and aficionados of dancefloors are not oblivious to what's new and hot. DJ DSTAR and Promoter Sean Coughlin are wanting to bring a small taste of that big-city flavor to the upstate. DSTAR who is one half of the buzzworthy Solidisco is going to be playing mostly Deep House and NuDisco. Nektar is not the first place you think of for a party, but it should be interesting to see what kind of crowd is drawn in. Check out some of the Solidisco music below through their Soundcloud and hear why they are quickly gaining more attention on the national level.

DUKE'S BOHEMIAN GROVE BAR
253 Allen St. Buffalo, NY
Another new event happening on Friday is a monthly starting at Duke's called the Senior Discount Buffet. They're going along with the theme that these DJs are going to serve up a buffet of different EDM music for your pleasure. Featuring the styles of House, Techno, Bass, Electro, DnB, and Bass music. This night is also going to feature many new DJs that I haven't ever heard of. So it will be interesting to check this out in the coming months. New music below is from EYES EVERYWHERE, the boys formerly known as hxly.

Everybody loves Igloo Music! Such positive vibes and great House music fill the air every time this party goes down.
