Certain records are permanently welded to a specific year of your life, and there is nothing you can do about it. You hear four bars and you are back in a car with people you no longer speak to, and the feeling is not sadness exactly — closer to being visited. Snakehips make that kind of record. The London duo spent the mid-2010s producing the slow, warm, slightly melancholy end of dance music — the songs that played at the point in the night when the party was thinning out and nobody wanted to say so. They kept working, which the internet occasionally forgets, and the DJ sets now run harder and funkier than the records that made them. The Gaslamp room holds a few hundred, and a Friday there draws a crowd old enough to remember the first time around and young enough to still be out at two. Ten at night to two on Friday the twenty-third, down on Sixth Avenue.

They have been making the same joke for twenty-five years and it has never once stopped being funny, which is its own kind of achievement. A Jewish guy and an Arab guy from Montreal, self-described as the only successful Arab-Jewish partnership since the dawn of human culture, playing talkbox funk with total sincerity underneath the bit. Dave 1 and P-Thugg built a career on electro-funk that could easily have been a costume and instead turned out to be a genuine command of the form — the basslines are real, the talkbox is played rather than programmed, and the songs hold up without the humor propping them up. The DJ set is looser than the live show and leans harder into the disco and boogie records underneath their whole sound. Halloween eve in the Gaslamp, which means the room will be half in costume and entirely committed. Halloween eve, doors at ten, and you should absolutely wear the costume.

Deathpact

Nobody knows who they are. That is not marketing copy — the identity has genuinely never been confirmed, the performers appear masked, and the entire project communicates through cryptic drops and coordinates rather than announcements. Anonymity in dance music usually wears off within a year or two once somebody gets careless. Deathpact has held it, and the effect is that the audience has built its own mythology in the gap where a personality would normally sit — forums decoding numbers, fans arriving having done homework. The music underneath is heavy, precise bass music, and the live show leans on the visual concept hard enough that it works even if you know nothing going in. Gaslamp, first Friday of December. Come early enough to watch the room work out what it is looking at.

Metal kids who discovered dubstep did not stop being metal kids. They just found a genre where the drop does what a breakdown used to do, and the crossover has been quietly one of the largest in American youth music for a decade. Danny Howland built Voyd out of exactly that overlap — riffs, growls, and a stage persona borrowed wholesale from black metal iconography, applied to bass music. The crowd headbangs rather than dances, and the pit behaves like a metal pit, which genuinely confuses people who wandered in expecting a club night. A week before Christmas in the Gaslamp, which means the room will be full of people home from school with nowhere to be in the morning. Saturday the nineteenth of December, doors at ten.
