Beat Down: Fuck Yesss celebrates two years tonight
June 4th, 2009 by Jonathan Williams in Music news
DJ LE CASTLE VANIA
These days it’s rare for anything to last very long in the club world. But when you have the right mix of cutting edge electro beats, the right venue and hipster credibility, you’re bound to get repeat business and a word-of-mouth following.
Such is the case with Fuck Yesss, the monthly indie electro dance party celebrating its second anniversary at the Drunken Unicorn this week. The dingy rock ‘n’ roll atmosphere lends itself to the equally skuzzy beats provided by DJs Le Castle Vania (aka DJ DJ Dylan) and Rrrump, a collaborative unit consisting of local favorites Justin Bright, Drew Van Atten and Anthony Rotella. Add to the mix the funked up disco sounds of Treasure Fingers and you’ve got an anniversary party worth wearing your dancing shoes to.
In addition to rocking DJ sets, there will also be video experimentation from Video Bean (aka Bean Summers) and plenty of Day-Glo, ironic bling and sunglasses at night. And Oh Snap! Kid photography will be there to document the debauchery.
$5 for ages 21 and older; $7 for ages 18-20. 11:30 p.m. Thurs., June 4. The Drunken Unicorn, 736 Ponce de Leon Ave. 404-870-0575. www.thedrunkenunicorn.net.
