HAVOC Returns. To Temple Underground!!

This week, the MAN who started Compression is BACK. Pimpin, macking: shit, y'all, it's HAVOC

Witness the fitness. DJ Havoc's back in the house, 2000 styles bat outta hell. I mean, seriously: this pimp was droppin bombs at age 12 or something. In party years, he's 72. And he's ready throw grenades in the white room this thursday, no doubt.

ADD IN SOME OF THIS RIGHT HURR:

HOT. Compression thursdays welcomes TEMPLE UNDERGROUND--dirty, nasty, sexy electro with Tone and the rest of the Temple Crew dropping freaky beats in the dark . This week, take a break from the DnB and party like a hipster in the Catacombs...

In the White Room, COMPRESSION gets freakalicious like always with TWO CENTS, aka the DJ's knowm as Aye~n and Mal...




What we got to say about these fools? Nothing! CAUSE YOU ALREADY KNOW!!

And leading the charge on the mic is Compression favorite MC Ax!om aka "The Hawk."



With Colonel still trying to raise bail, Ax!om will be holding the mic this week, and shit, is your mama STOKED. Versatile, rowdy, and smoother that a bottle of Crown Royale, Ax!om basically owns. Come experience San Francisco's finest as the man gets down with Compression crew.

Support from resident Temple hottie, Ms. DoZier




Get down and join in the funk. We get crackin at about 10:45!

DJ Sharp Presents: Ladies Night.

Shit, baby. It's ladies night this Thursday at Compression with DJ SHARP and the rest of the Compression Crew. Come out, get down, and understand why we call drum and bass the sexualized funk.

You don't know Sharp? Need to get to know. One of San Francisco's most precise DJs and most eligible bachelors (wink!), Sharp comes at drum and bass from the R&B side, dropping tracks that rock but also sooth the soul. Sweet perfection is what we've come to expect from the man, and Sharp never ever disappoints, always rolling it out fresh and clean.

If you smell excitement, that a Sharp headline set. We're ready, he's ready, and we want you to come out get down with us, ladies night style.

With support from the professional, Mr. DJ IVRY.

Recognize the IVRY. He's old school, he's new school, he IS Compression. Bringing goodness for you and your girl, Ivry's ready to take it DEEP.

You know how we do:
Free for ladies all night, $5 for dudes after 11.
Drink specials, dirty bizness, oh god jesus.

Be sure to pose for photos by the lady La Loca.

Sniff the Bass: Aye~n & Colonel Give a Shit LIVE

Check out the rest of the photos Here



So yeah, we been hyping up Aye~n and Colonel's new mix "Tried To Give a Damn, Couldn't Give a Shit" for a few weeks now, and the response has been wicked (see post below). But damn, some fools are claiming that there's no way we recorded that shit live, that we must have put it together on a computer. Say whaaat?

We don't stand for no shit talking, so this week we're doing the mix LIVE. Roll out, get rowdy, and watch us put it down AGAIN. LIVE. COMPRESSION STYLES.

So again, that's DJ AYE~N

Stay Tuned for more....

World of DnB Miami was CRAZY

Girrrrrrl, you woulda been proud of your boy!

Compression RINSED Miami this year, holding down the World of Drum and Bass 2008 with the most funky and rowdy second room the party's seen in years. Visionary, R.A.W., Mason and D*Star, Armanni, Dino and on and on--truly, the room cracked the fuck OFF as STATESIDE drum and bass represented to the FULLEST. And when it was Compression's turn, Ivry rocked it sideways before Aye~n and Mal delivered what may have been the set of the night, dropping bomb after bomb with Colonel and Angel charging behind. Seriously, y'all, the room swinged and swayed all night long like only Compression (and maybe Lionel Ritchie) can do. It even LOOKED like Compression in there. I mean: god tothe DAMN.

But yo the main room looked like this:

Zezo, Colonel, Dino, Loca and G1 cross the line.


Lick the magic.


Robster Craw is born.



See the rest of La Loca's pictures HERE


We will see you there back NEXT YEAR. Start saving up to make it there now!


HONEY BEAR SAYS: SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!

* Last year, the soundsystem at 1015 left much to be desired, and we want to make up for it. So this year, above and beyond TEMPLE's sick ass soundsystem, we're bringing in FSOUND, San Fran's number one drum and bass soundsystem. Remember the Temple party with Dieselboy and Hive? Remember how the bass was so big in the basement you almost experienced the brown sound and pooed your pants? FSOUND is bringing TWICE AS MUCH BASS for the World of DnB. Without hyperbole, this will the be the biggest, loudest, most bassinest drum and bass party in San Francisco History. Please remember your earplugs!!
