Weekend Dance Party: Designer Drugs and Local DJs Hit Lincoln Hall

Lincoln Hall will play host Saturday night to a new and exciting monthly dance party, Delorean Nites. The event, created and hosted by Members Only AV (a.k.a. Midnight Conspiracy), has an impressive bill for fans of indie dance and electro, with Designer Drugs headlining and local faves Midnight Conspiracy, Skyler (of Rehab), Broken Disco 1980 and Punky Fresh offering support sets. For an event in which its lineup could be the liner notes for an 80s sci-fi soundtrack, one begins to understand why the party is named what it is. If tomorrow's festivities are any indication of where Delorean Nites will go, well, Rehab may have a run for its money.

The headliner, Designer Drugs, hail from New York and are most known for injecting indie tracks with some thump and growl, resulting in aggressive, fully-flipped dance remixes. The duo have also recently gone on to producing original tracks perhaps better than their remix work, proving that they have a bright future ahead of them. Their music is not for the faint of heart, however -- tomorrow's show will most certainly have as much of a punk atmosphere as it does a dance one. Be prepared to dance as much as mosh.

While Designer Drugs are the highlight of Delorean Nites tomorrow, the support is no slouch. Midnight Conspiracy, Skyler, Broken Disco 1980 and Punky Fresh will surely properly sauce the dance floor with only the best of indie dance. Get there early, stay late, have fun.

Delorean Nites is tomorrow, February 6, Lincoln Hall, 2424 N Lincoln, 11 p.m., $10, 18+
