Your weekend awaits! Here are a bunch of things to do.
Tonight
Funk night at the Resek (right next to the Shesek Bar) from 22:00. Expect a very broad definition of funk – from house to techno and electro and beyond – anything that’s got a groovy bassline and funky beats. Free.
***
The Block has Steve Bug from Berlin with local support from Yogo, Partok and Tal Cohen. From 23:30. Tickets 70-90NIS. In advance from here.
***
Great live music night at the Gagarin with lots of band dominated by female musicians. Hit attending on the event page to get in for 20NIS. You can also see the bands there and follow links to their music. If you don’t hit attending it’s 30NIS.
***
There’s an underground techno / d&b rave at Tushiya 9 from 23:00. No idea how much it costs but doubt it’ll be expensive. RadioSKY, Soussana (Pacotek), Mute and Yaron Sobel, among others.
***
Friday
Something totally different at Habima Square from 18:00 – a tango party!
If you’re into tango then here’s your chance to have a go. I’m sure there will be enough people without partners who’ll be up for dancing with you if you’re on your own, but I don’t know much beyond that. It’s free.
***
Radio EPGB has Jean Claude Gavri playing funky stuff off vinyl from afrobeats to latin to acid and beyond. Summer tunes. From 22:00. Free.
***
More great underground techno / acid / house, this time at the Zimmer . Mule Driver, Vitali, Dina. From 22:30. 10NIS.
***
Anna Loulou has their happy Middle Eastern / Mediterranean night on again, from Arabic music to Greek and beyond. From 22:00. Free.
***
Saturday
Boom Pam take over the Teder for an afternoon party and gig from 16:00. Band on around 20:00 or so, but lots of good stuff before and after.
***
At 22:00 at the Pasaz – the Hoodna Afrobeat Orchestra playing live. Big big band. Should be fun. Free.
