Elevator Sex Muzak With Natural Sphere and DRM

FreeNYC and DJ Moe Choi bring you a bi-weekly evening of leftfield hip hop, blunted beats, and assorted downtempo rhythms. This is a night where DJs play for DJs and drop all those rare and obscure tracks they don't normally have a chance to play out. $3 beers and $4 wines from 10-11 get things going. This week's line-up features DRM from Bastard Jazz and Natural Sphere from the Agriculture. Click here for full info.

BONUS: I have some leftover giftbags from the party (aparently drunken cats at 4am don't take their goods) so the first 10 people to show up and find me and ask get one. What do you get? Free Bodies Pass (for two), Cool Eh mag, a dope Snoozer Loser bag, RES DVDs and some Snoozer Loser cash!

Date: Tuesday, April 11th
Time: 10:00pm - 2:00am
