The traveling Emo Nite party comes to Launchpad for a DJ-driven night built around the anthems that defined a very specific kind of teenage suffering: Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, Paramore, the whole catalog. Launchpad's narrow room and loud sound system make this kind of communal screaming-along work better than it has any right...
Kuzomii, Bass Prophet, and Zorro are headlining this late-night electronic session at Lunas Kava Root, billed as an 'afters' meaning this is designed to run well past midnight. The start time on the listing is a placeholder, so check the ticket link before you commit to a plan or you may show up to an...
Brad Cole has been a fixture in the Albuquerque DJ scene long enough to know how to read a room, and Strange Mix is built around exactly that flexibility, no fixed genre, just whatever the floor needs. Insideout runs late, and this one goes until nearly 7 a.m., so pace yourself accordingly. A ticket link...
This is the 1AM-to-4AM hip-hop landing pad for whoever survived the foam event earlier that night, held at Gaia's Kava Root on Central in the UNM corridor.

Luna Kava's setup lends itself to exactly this kind of low-lit, still-moving crowd, so expect the vibe to lean more communal than...

That bed-and-brew setup means the crowd often includes out-of-towners who wandered downstairs, which gives these nights a looser, stranger energy than your typical...
Three Deuce Luce brings their set to Insideout's outdoor garden space for a late-summer party on Central. Insideout's courtyard punches above its square footage, so arrive with time to settle in before the music takes hold. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, so sort that out in advance rather than gambling on the door.
Cambridge psych-doom outfit Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats headlines the Sunshine Theater with Italian doom trio Messa opening, a double bill that earns its weight in riffs. The Sunshine's standing...
San Francisco's Hot Flash Heat Wave brings their hazy, sun-warped indie pop to Launchpad, with local and regional support from Small Crush and High rounding out the bill. Launchpad's sound...
