What The Genre??? Techno

PIRATE WEST ADAMS, MARCH 9TH @ 6:30PM (PST)

Techno can be breaky or bumpy, hard or super soft and melodic. During our in-person techno workshop at Pirate West Adams in Los Angeles, we'll dive into the history of techno, highlighting the women of the genre.

Part listening party, part giant B2B – this event will be an opportunity to share and discover new music, meet other artists and hone your skills behind the decks. All of this through the medium of techno.

The session will be hosted by Clawz and Casska, they ask that you bring your USBs prepped with music to share.

ITINERARY

  • Registered attendees are expected to arrive at Pirate West Adams for 6:30PM
  • Participants will be divided into listening groups
  • 30 minutes will be spent sharing music in your listening group
  • Participants will then have the opportunity to play the tracks they've discovered in casual B2B DJ sets
  • The session will end at 8PM
