Succubass plays our NYE party after DR BPM and before Maara and DJ Hockey! Catch her set from 11:30-1:30. You know it's going to be fricking insane!

Jess Duran aka Succubass is for everyone: the wook intellegencia, techno pseudointellectuals, gay guys who cruise at Costco, ketamine witch doctors, green-room social climbers, bisexuals in ketosis, ambient tent boofers, twinks on Beatport, record store Karens, hot girls on torrent sites, boyfriends with boiler room push notifications, designer drug sommeliers, hung drag queens, burners who f**k with IDM, bassbin babysitters, Detroit purists who have never been to Michigan, smokers pit community elders, glove light show bottoms, and the track-ID impaired.

This collection of sick-ass DJs are going to take their advanced raver knowledge and feed it to you through - do not miss out! Celebrate the new year with us ❤️‍🔥

Party goes late at 1930 Powell St (back alley entrance!)

Coming up for NYE at the Vantek Warehouse! We're stoked to have Maara coming back for a DOLLY party and it should be one of the most bangin parties of the year.

A prolific and groundbreaking artist of our new techno age, Maara finds herself in high demand on the worldwide festival circuit - reliably bringing her personalized spin on sassy, high-energy hits to the dance floor. She will make you sweat, smile, and lose your mind in very good company on this lineup!

NYE is coming, baby, and we are trying to give you the best damn doorway to 2025 with this sick-as-possible lineup. It's the 2nd best party of the year, and we gotta do it right!

We're already in ecstasy having Maara come all the way to the West Side amidst relentlessly touring worldwide. With DR BPM opening, Succubass going 2 hours before Maara and a closing set by DJ Hockey - this impeccable flow should keep you locked to the floor all night long.

At a secret location with 📣📣

For Adam 2, electronic music has always provided an opportunity for self-discovery, creative exploration, and personal liberation.

2020 saw the release of featured mixes on Honcho, Techno Hour of Power, and the creation of Afrofuturism is Now – a mix series amplifying the music of Black artists. In 2022/23 Adam 2 maintained their stride sharing the bill with Carlos Souffront, Shanti Celeste, and Objekt, had high profile performances at Basscoast and Domesicle in Montreal and releases on 3024, Amphiboly Records, Model Future and PPRZ.

(Miami) and finally Adam 2 closing the night! Gateo is BINKY, Brendocha & La PosmoBaby and
they'll be playing a 2 hour set (possibly even a bit longer!)

BINKY brings a vibrant mix of of Caribbean flavors to their performances, weaving hypnotic

upbringing. As co-founder of GATEO, they uplift Q***r Latinx Fem artists, amplifying their voices
in the music scene.

Brendocha is a q***r DJ originally from Lima, Peru and currently residing on the ancestral lands
of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh First Nations. She is the co-founder and
resident DJ of GATEO, a Q***r Latinx Femme collective curating events that highlight q***r
Latinx talent. Brendocha brings fast-paced and energetic sets that traverse through reggaeton,
cumbias Peruanas, Brazilian funk, aleteo and techno— captivating audiences with her cutting-
edge style.

La PosmoBaby is a DJ, transdisciplinary artist, workshop facilitator, and community organizer
from southeastern Mexico. She founded and hosts Caricias, a monthly radio show celebrating
femmes and enbys, and co-founded Gateo, a Latinx collective organizing events for Latin America
and diaspora q***rs in “Vancouver”.

Her DJ sets blend LatinCore rhythms with high-BPM erotica, incorporating vocals, percussion,
and melodies from Latin American music. This creates a unique sound with strong beats and
hard kicks that connect cultural expressions on the dance floor.

We are so damn excited to to see all these DJs together, all night long until sunrise in one of
Vancouver's best sounding rooms. Click the link in bio and grab a ticket to join us!
