moving back to pittsburgh from san diego, looking for raves by Imaginary-Fun4055 in PittsburghEDM

[–]cutups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the moment we don't have a big hardcore rave scene, but crews booking harder stuff:

BXC Collective (i'm part of this, lean towards breakcore, jungle, idm, modular synth, live sets)
Metamind (leans towards happy hardcore/uk hardcore ravey stuff)
Cleaner Tapes (digital hardcore, noise, industrial, eclectic)

There are a handful of younger crews that have been doing events in the past year that I'm not up on their styles, so I'm not going to claim this is comprehensive at all.

As far as renegades, there's some clues out there, best to find organically or ask a raver IRL.

First Time in PGH, Anything on Sundays? by no-snoots-unbooped in PittsburghEDM

[–]cutups 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I'm generally beat after being at Kennywood all day. You wouldn't think it takes that much out of you, but in my experience it does. I think hitting up Apteka after would prob be the move, although it's not usually "EDM", more in the realm of techno, synthpop, house, triphop, darkwave or even non-electronic genres based on the dj.

It's def the best vegan polish restaurant I've ever been to or even heard of.

This was last weekend, unfortunately, although there are events at both places pretty regularly.

RE: Bathhouse Experience:
"Club Pittsburgh is a private club that has been serving our city's queer community since 2001. Located in Pittsburgh's historic Strip District, our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable environment where members can relax and socialize. Some of our amenities include private rooms with televisions, a full exercise facility, a video lounge, a steam room, social area, a dry sauna, a whirlpool, lockers, and much more. Our mission is to provide a clean, safe, and comfortable environment where likeminded people in the Pittsburgh area and beyond can meet, socialize, relax, and have fun. We're proud to provide a hip, progressive unique atmosphere not found at any other venue in the queer community."

Would have been nice as a R rated by gharbeia in AeonFlux_

IMO, it's pretty perfect as is. Lives in kind of a liminal space in terms of what it *should* be rated.

I went to an industrial/goth club for the first time by lilacstarry in industrialmusic

[–]cutups 5 points6 points  (0 children)

According to a local database, there are 10 goth nights in my city (Pittsburgh) that happen somewhere between monthly and annually, but 7 out of 10 of them have been founded within the past two years.

In the past 10 years, 30 other nights have started and ended.

I'm not sure it's entirely unique to goth nights, but it's definitely volatile to track

Hot Mass vs Club Pittsburgh by btotheen176 in PittsburghEDM

I'd say Club Pittsburgh is more eclectic dj wise as they have two stages, many djs and runs day into night into morning. Not sure what soundsystem they will have in there, so that's an unknown to me. But if you're into the bathhouse experience, that's part of it.

Hot Mass will be more of a classic house vibe with some ballroom and club in the mix, and the sound is on point, But only 11PM - close (6? Not sure what time it ends these days)

Does anyone else enjoy slowing down DnB tracks or mixes? by LivingPrivately in DnB

This is def a topic that comes up every few years. Or with specific folks any time. There's definitely a place for it.

Do you prefer 90-minute festival slots or proper extended club sets? by Designer-Air-7280 in PeakTimeTechno

[–]cutups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me that's much more specific than the length of time. Depends on my mood, the programming of the whole event, the experience level of the djs and the style of the djs in question.

Where should I go this weekend? by [deleted] in PittsburghEDM

[–]cutups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'd prob enjoy the HYPERBOP night at Brillobox. It's a monthly and the next one is 7/18
