Public service announcement: For those who were hoping to see a Traxman four hour set of Chicago dance music at The Shelter tonight, the event has been cancelled. Due to a mistake by his travel agent, Traxman wasn't able to get his visa for Shanghai in time. He'll still be playing Dada Beijing next Thursday though.
Fear not though, dear ravers: Shelter still has an event on this Sunday, so the marathon session is still on, if you're so inclined. This weekend sees Korean trap, LA funk, London grime and European tech house too. Get on it.
Jubei and SP:MC
The Shelter, 10pm, 60RMB
Drum and bass from the UK courtesy Jubei on the decks, and veteran MC SP:MC on the microphone. Sweatshop has also amassed a big crew to support, featuring Arkaik, Cursed, Siesta, Monk, Resinate and Roo.
Markus Homm
Lola, 10pm, 100RMB
Homm returns to Lola for the second time this year, for a night of tech house and techno coming straight at you from the German.
Slackk
The Shelter, 10pm, 60RMB
Although the London sound of grime music is over ten years old, it has never been hotter than it is right now, drawing a lot of attention in the media. Slackk and the Boxed crew, have been right at the forefront of that. Expect a set of sharp, firing tunes. Support from Swimful, Alta and Naaah and Sleepless.
Keith Ape

Dam Funk

Born in the '70s, Dam Funk absorbed the sounds of West Coast funk from an early age. Having played on many hip hop records in the '90s, he began to make a name in '00s on Stones Throw records, where he released records that were as funky as all hell.
