Dark Heaven

07/08/2024

Dark Heaven & RnD are teaming up to present 𝙎𝙋𝙀𝙇𝙇𝘽𝙊𝙐𝙉𝘿: a night of psychedelic techno, hypnosis on the dancefloor, and magic in the air. Come and join us for a special underground experience at a secret location where DJs from near and far will send you on an interdimensional sonic voyage to indulge, discover, and expand your consciousness. 🔮

While traveling through the physical world as we know it, you’ve surely been transported to realms which lack the familiarity of previous moments. A strange sense you can not seem to translate to words. This sensation maybe known to some as hypnosis but others have described it as 𝙎𝙋𝙀𝙇𝙇𝘽𝙊𝙐𝙉𝘿. ✨

Dark Heaven is claimed to be Chicago's most exciting new label by 5 Magazine! I did not expect this when I sent them my EP a few months ago, hoping to get a review out of the effort. It's super exciting to have a feature in their most recent, 212th edition :) Thanks 5 Mag!

We have a lot of demos in the vault. 4 EPs from different artists on the way and a 2nd VA compilation too. Still looking for a couple tracks to complete the compilation so if you or another artist you know have anything in the vein of techno, electro, breaks, jungle/dnb, house , uk dubstep, experimental / leftfield bass, or anything that hits - email it to [email protected]

Ecstatically raging through the city’s underground, Prov Krivoshey (aka VORP) and Asha Rahaylia expand their event series into Chicago’s most exciting new label.

Dark Heaven and Sanctum are teaming up! From the mind of this compelling concept & theme is in celebration of International Women’s Day. Prepare for a heavy-hitting all-femme lineup for this multi-level event complete with two incredible hosts who will undoubtedly leave you in awe and appreciation of the raw power found in women everywhere.

The theme and name for this event is Sacred & Obscene. Historically, society at large has reduced women into this dichotomy - either a precious, virginal, sacred Madonna & mother - or, a l***y, hypersexualized v***n, or w***e - when in reality, women embody both of these elements at one point or another, falling anywhere in between on this complex spectrum.

For this event, we invite you to explore this duality within yourself and exhibit your expression of it via dress. Will you be sacred? Or obscene? Or perhaps, somewhere in between? This will be a safe space so feel free to express yourself!

The event space is grandiose and lavish, quite unique and certainly not to be missed. This will be the first event that Sanctum or Dark Heaven has ever hosted in this space, so be sure to come early and explore. Check out some of our lovely vendors and grab a taco. Videowaste will be transforming the space with their one-of-a-kind visuals and installation.

Everyone is welcome at this event. If you respect and love women, we want you there!
