Singapore Dark Alternative Movement

Come July 18 and August 22, the latest night of malevolence from the Singapore Dark Alternative Movement promises to assimilate more of the hardest and darkest tracks from around the global alternative circuit.

HEART OF DARKNESS will bring you the best of Industrial / Goth / EBM in the revival of Singapore's premiere goth party of the not-so-distant past. Revel in the primal contagious rhythm layered over the blistering hits--culminating in the lushest and rawest party fit to do your collective rivetheads in. The usual suspects at the decks of fucking doom are our beloved regulars:

- 21:30 to 23:30 DJ Lique
- 23:30 to 1:00 DJ Mentor
- 1:00 to 3:00 DJ Cosmic Battlefield


So come dressed to distress and experience the premium goth vibe with a glass of absinthe or two as the Singapore Dark Alternative Movement (SDAM) shows you once again what the local goth scene is really about.

HEART OF DARKNESS has previously won critical acclaim in Time Out magazine's Singapore Edition as the Number 1 critic's choice, ranking above quite a few mainstream clubs and parties. Just so you know, we aren't talking out of our asses.

Fans and fiends of old-school goth classics, this upcoming Saturday will thrill you with killer hits from the era of Siouxsie, The Cure, Depeche Mode and Joy Division.

ORIGINAL SIN, the first and only Darkwave/Goth night in SINgapore is where the tragedy's at, melding lush lyrics and vitriolic vignettes that snake its wispy tendrils into the bleak void of your soul. Love lost, decay, and subterranean emptiness, topped with a dose of your favourite poison--there's always the ABSINTHE SHOTS at $8--will infuse this piquant night with opulent colours of introspection and revelation.

Celebrate the fragile human condition with haunting songcrafts and otherworldly offerings of DARKWAVE/OLD-SCHOOL GOTH/ETHEREAL/FOLK from our resident deck masters MENTOR, COSMIC BATTLEFIELD and an appearance by LIQUE. So come dressed in your mourning best, for it's time to bleed out the angst, and wax eloquent about death--after all, Bela Lugosi's DEAD.


Details you'll need:
- 20th June, Saturday
- Cover of $12
- Absinthe shots at $8++, mixers at $10++
- Beers from $6 onwards
- At Blu Jaz Space (on the 3rd floor!!!!!!!)
- Dress in your mourning best!


with woe,

Lique

Dark Friday: Where you can stop fighting against being different, and start embracing it. Really. Others may have forfeited these all-too-often forgotten charms of death and decay; brutally quashed facets of humanity hastily relegated to the stuff of nightmares and farce.

But not you, oh no. Your dark sensibilities demand and revel in pleasurable aspects of the morbid and macabre--nothing more than memento-mori. So lift up your bleeding hearts and brooding brows, and be welcome to drink, dance and speak what you may, because you have no reason to be anywhere else, other than DARK FRIDAY.

Graveyard Town Halloween Party

At Peranakan Place

Featuring DJ Saito Nagasaki (Aesgrade) and DJ Mentor (X’ho)

Of the Singapore Dark Alternative Movement

It’s my party and I’ll die if I want to!

This 31^st October presents a Halloween celebration full of wicked indulgences and mystery gifts at Peranakan Place. Featured DJs Saito Nagasaki (Aesgrade) and Mentor (X’ho) will be spinning up a storm of dark and ominous tunes for vampires, witches, zombies and other denizens of Graveyard Town. Amidst spooky melodic offerings of the Goth / Industrial / Darkwave / EBM persuasion, the Day of the Dead will witness the terrifying Transylvanian transformation of the Outdoors Café & Bar, Alley Bar and Acid Bar. Tombstone-infested cemeteries and gypsy fortune tellers will electrify on your senses in a most delightful way.  

No cover charge will be imposed. Poisons include $5 shooters and delicious Graveyard drink promos all night long.

Come costumed or with just your black hearts on your sleeves, and be sure to leave those sensibilities at the door. Only kink, humor and gregarious appetites for adventure are allowed!

PS: Yes, we realize the sheer irony in Goths celebrating by dressing up and ‘listening to scary music’. However, real opportunities to kick back in clubs with our music are few and far in between – with the exception of Dark Friday* events – so drop by and indulge with some shooters. And let’s face it, as the ONLY party in town featuring dark alternative music on Halloween – do you really want to be anywhere else?

There are no tricks – expect only treats!

Putting Singapore Back on the map of Global Dark Alternative music culture.

November 14th 2008 continues the monthly succession of Dark Fridays organized by the Singapore Dark Alternative Movement.

3rd October marked the third Dark Friday ever, and like the first two, we had merciless and provocative Industrial and the hammering power of EBM send waves of heart pumping delight (or furor) through rivetheads and gravers alike. DJs at the console were Eskil Simonsson of immensely popular synth/futurepop/ebm band Covenant, who very kindly took time off Covenant's world tour to stop over in Singapore, as well as supremely talented locals Mentor, Murderfreak and Saito Nagasaki. At the hands of these maestros of mayhem, the dancefloor was injected with brutal beats straight from hell, mercilessly pulling new faces and hardcore regulars into the maelstrom and spitting them out afterward, strangely sated, high and yearning for more of the same sinister sounds.
