Three local acts share the Moonlight Lounge stage on what is technically a Sunday night, with the show running until 1 AM local time. That late-weekend timing tends to thin the crowd by the third set, which means Zero Future will either play to the faithful or to a nearly empty room. Tickets are through...
Sandia Shockwave takes the stage at Insideout for a late-night run that kicks off at 10 p.m. and closes out well past midnight. Insideout is a compact room where the sound hits hard regardless of where you're standing, so expect the volume to be part of the experience. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, so...
CLAWZ headlines this late-night electronic event at Effex as part of a touring floor-focused set, with local support from SIHK and MEGAB4T rounding out the bill. The UTC start time puts this squarely in after-midnight territory local time, so this is a proper late-night run, not an early evening hang. Tickets are through Hold My...
A weekly late-night DJ event at Bourbon & Boots built around international sounds, running from around 7 p.m. through the early hours of Friday morning.

The crowd skews serious about the music rather than the costume, which makes for a better show and...
A late-night radio-affiliated showcase at Insideout, one of Downtown's more reliable spots for catching local talent on the Central corridor. Insideout runs small and loud, so expect a room that...
BEAUZ, the LA-based brother duo known for pushing hard techno into hypertechno territory, plays Effex, Albuquerque's longest-running LGBTQ nightclub and one of the few rooms on Central with a sound...
DJ Hump holds down a full late-night set built around Sade's catalog at Insideout, one of Downtown's more dependable dance rooms when the booking is right. The 2 a.m. start time is not a typo, so plan accordingly if you have anywhere to be Sunday morning. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, which means will-call...

Launchpad runs a tight ship on multi-band bills, so doors and set times tend to hold, which matters when the show wraps past 11 PM on a school night. Tickets...
