Tom A. theBeijinger 2019-04-02



Beijing Beats brings you the best in Beijing nightlife each weekend so that you can soothe the woes of a long and stressful week with some out-of-body gyrating and some experiences you'd rather forget come Monday. Check the weekend's full list of nightlife events here: thebeijinger.com/events.

Friday, Mar 1



Peace and Love

Peace and Love night at Lantern is a time for clubbers to come together and help them "forget about [their] daily life, obligations, and problems – it sets us free." DJs on hand to do so this Saturday include VLTRA_U with a set that'll skirt house to minimal, deep, progressive, and nu disco. Jackson Lee will be on hand to finish, while FlagariC curates the visuals.


RMB 50. 10pm doors. Lantern



Shakolin

Ukrainian DJ Shakolin heads to Zhao Dai, bringing with him his "dystopian fantasy that was Kiev's Soviet-era underground club scene, with heavy-artillery techno, hypnotic, and deep beats" that he regularly spins as resident DJ at Closer Club in Kiev.


Price TBA. 10pm doors. Zhao Dai



Dance Party Night feat. DJ Boring

DJ Boring comes out of his winter hibernation this Friday to give the people of Soi Baochao what they want, namely anything from pop classics and modern rock, hip-hop, dance-punk to space disco, and German techno to club and house. Basically, as the title says, expect to dance.


Free. 10pm. Soi Baochao


Saturday, Mar 2



Music Family Evolution

It's a family affair at Aurora this Saturday with the Tidy Bar Street club's latest Music Family Evolution night. The premise is simple(ish): six DJs take to the decks to spin back-to-back sets, giving them a chance to show off their chops in front of some well-connected company. In the meantime, everyone else chows on a buffet dinner or turns up later for pure music, drinks, and dancing.

RMB 165 (dinner buffet), free (before 10pm), RMB 50 (after 10pm). 7pm onwards. Aurora



W&W

The "kings of Dutch EDM" W&W return to One Third this Saturday, promising their usual mix of big room house, a splash of progressive house, and a side of trance. If you like your beats big, meaty, and fun, this is the one for you.


RMB 200. 10pm. One Third



Rob Smith AKA RSD

Bristol, UK's Rob Smith AKA RSD (pictured at top) hits up Dada for a night of breakbeat, hip-hop, dub, and reggae-inspired tracks. A legend among the dub set, Smith was formerly a drum 'n' bass and jungle DJ before honing his mellower beats on Grand Central Records as well as adding numerous remixes to his name.


RMB 80, RMB 60 (before 11pm). 10pm doors. Dada
