RICHARD DEVINE

See Speaker Freak.

THE SOCIAL

Jacob London is actually two people, and tonight they'll be bringing tech-house to my favorite Pioneer Square bar. Lulu's, 421 Second Ave, 342-9457, 9 pm-2 am, 21+, $5.

PHATSO FRIDAYS

DJ Riz deserves props--he's got a real knack for reaching out to a broad range of people in the local electronic/dance community. So it's not surprising that his radio show, Expansions, just celebrated its fifth year on the air at KCMU/KEXP. Riz plays a nice mix of funky house, hiphop, and drum 'n' bass--it's a true old-school dance party. Re-bar, 1114 Howell St, 233-9873, 10 pm-2 am, 21+, $5.

FRESH

Saturday night and the feelin' is right! This is a monthly party for Minty magazine featuring DJ Chloe (FurtherRadio on Groovetech.com/Minty/Progressive Sounds) and DJ Recess (Minty) playing deep and progressive house. Re-bar, 1114 Howell St, 233-9873, 9 pm-2 am, 21+, $10.

FLAMMABLE

I know, I know, suckas... I've mentioned this night a gazillion times, but it is still thee dance night designed for pure unadulterated ass-shakin', with Brian Lyons always bringing solid guest house DJs. What else do you want me to write about, the kegger in Fife?! Re-bar, 1114 Howell St, 233-9873, 9 pm-2 am, 21+, $10.

INVOLUTION

After a brief hiatus, the Monday night is all up in your grill again, with Circle of Fire throwin' down hammers on the dance floor, plus guest DJs. Start stretching! Nation, 1921 Fifth Ave, 374-9424, 9 pm-2 am, 21+, $5.

J MAJIK

Infrared recording artist J Majik is gonna be representing at Seattle's longest running drum 'n' bass party, along with residents Demo and Slantooth. Mash it up, you little ruffians! Baltic Room, 1207 Pine St, 625-4444, 9 pm-2 am, 21+, $7.

FRESH CANDIES

Chris Field (from the Corner Bar), Philip Eno, and--ahem--yours truly are throwin' a midweek party smack dab in the center of Capitol Hill, with soulful tech house cuts so retarded you'll wanna slap yo mama! Des Amis is an intimate little lounge sandwiched in between the Wild Rose and Caffé Vita--it's as easy as that! Des Amis, 1013 E Pike St, 322-0703, 9 pm-2 am, 21+, free.
