Guten tag, edm lovers! It’s been a while since I’ve filled you in on EDM happenings in ATX because I’ve been to London and Berlin and back. Do you love techno? Go to Berlin! I made it to Tresor, Panorama Bar, and Watergate, and was present for P. Toile, Dasha Rush, Radio Slave, Heartthrob and Paco Osuna laying waste to the dance floor. (I’m itching to live there. Know how to make that happen? Message me. Thanks.)

Since I’ve been back, I’ve written a few event reviews. For Resident Advisor, my favorite edm news source, and for Austin Vida, a Latino entertainment focused mag.
In other news, the Burleson warehouse, home to hundreds of underground dance events in East Austin, has been shut down. The venue’s last major event was last month’s U Funktion One Year Anniversary party with Derek Plaslaiko. U Funktion’s December event with the Punisher, originally to be held at the warehouse, is postponed until further notice.
Austin’s underground edm scene loved the warehouse for being commiteed to the edm community and the events that could last for days. The space nurtured a love of music and even the seeds of performance art for Austin’s dance music scene. Austin will miss this venue.
Now, let’s look forward.
Redline Hookah is a gem on South First. The lounge is home to Hookah-Tech, a great house and techno night on Wednesdays. This Wednesday, get housed with Christian Barbuto, Jonene, and Eric Q at the decks. These three have been involved in the house and techno scene across the US in major ways for years. Come out.

Yummy Shisha!
Another little known dance party in Austin is Back Alley Social. Home to Icon Friday’s, a weekly featuring Jonene, L. Boogie, and J.A.M.O.N., the party should not be missed. Every Friday, no cover.
