The latest party series to hit San Jose, SJ Bass Club makes its debut December 16 at Motif. Featuring all things bass, organizers hope to bring fresh sounds in electronic music and new subgenres like UK garage, ghetto house, tropical, moombahton and more.
The party is inspired by San Francisco’s “Lights Down Low,” a series known for hosting new electronic acts like James Blake, Jacques Green, Classixx, and Brenmar, so it’s no surprise to see that party’s founder, Sleazemore, topping the bill. SJ Bass Club founder and resident DJ, Av Alaguena, says the party was founded mainly because she and other organizers awanted to bring that same “Lights Down Low” vibe to the South Bay.
“We all just wanted the same thing basically,” she says. “We have a ton of mutual friends that we know would drive to San Francisco for shows. We’ve been pushing the concept of electronic music to the forefront of clubs in San Jose, and its been well received in the past year, or so.”
