for the first time ever in SF...
"Electronic duo Gatekeeper may be self-described perfectionists, but their carefully composed “horror scores for the dance floor” (to borrow a term from Brooklyn music promoter Todd Pendu) feel like flights of macabre fantasy. Informed by Chicago house and industrial music, Detroit techno, ‘70s and '80s library records, and Wendy Carlos’ Switched On Bach, their work combines camp theatricality with skeletal simplicity, soundtracking the eternity of the desert as poignantly as it might "John Carpenter’s New York, silhouetted by a full moon.” -altered zones
straight up horror score dance music...gatekeeper is the shit.
"pure suburban hoodrat thrills, over-amped electronic music made for teenage metalheads playing coin-op games in grotty strip mall arcades. "

120 MINUTES (http://www.facebook.com/120MINUTES) is a video dance club and showcase for independent music featuring live bands, live dj's, live visuals, and strong drinx at the Elbo Room in San Francisco. Our focus is the dark and bass heavy... witch house, deathrock, goth, drag, rap, chopped and screwed... whatever moniker you have to use to describe us is your own business... but we kill it.

Resident DJ's oOoOO, NAKO and WhITCH spin everything from SALEM to Wu-Tang, from Sisters of Mercy to Dragged out Nicki Minaj... and all in between; including exclusive remixes as well as custom videos and visuals.

oOoOO
(http://www.myspace.com/wkwkwkwkwkwkwkwk)

so everyone and their mother's blog have something to say about the homie... but he himself remains for the most part... cryptic. there, to my knowledge, is not a single decent (stress decent) bio written about oOoOO, and personally i think that makes a lot of sense. his music and taste speak volumes though... if for whatever reason, you've been under a rock for awhile, check the shit out... life changing.

NAKO
(http://www.facebook.com/nakoeth)
nako is a san francisco staple. between popscene and shutter she's had a hand in nearly every show you've given a fuck about in the last several years... and now she's ours.

WhITCH

WhITCH (Marco Vega/Santa Muerte) has been Djing and throwing events in San Francisco for over 8 years. Mixing together records, visuals, and performance art elements WhITCH presents a juxtaposition of pop culture and lighthearted critique to engage the audience in thoughtful dialogue and sweaty dancing... or some shit.

SPECIAL GUEST DJ's:
ROBERT DISARO (LA/HOUSTON)
(http://disaro.org/)
(http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000855863614)
The homie runs one of the most important and prolific labels in independent music to date... having put out releases from SALEM, oOoOO, WHITE RING, WATER BORDERS, etc... To say that Disaro is a tastemaker is an understatement. Not to mention as a DJ he fuckin' holds it down, playing along side everyone from WHITE CAR to LCD SOUNDSYSTEM.

SARAH TOON (KILLING SPREE/LA):
just check out the killing spree mixtape THE FILTER just put out...
