This Weekend In Techno Town

There is so much going on in Orlando this holiday weekend. Techno fans, Dance fans, 80's Fans, there is no excuse to stay home! CLICK ON IMAGES TO ENLARGE

Thursday night, Techno & House fans can dance to DJ David Solano over at Bliss Ultra Lounge. Solano is part of Robbie Rivera's Juicy Music Group; you may have seen him perform at Ultra if you were down there this year! Of course the real fun is 80's Night at The Groove featuring DJ Doc Wells, formerly of 8TRAX. It's one fun song after another with some old 70's Disco tossed in too!

Friday night don't miss the "queen of bass" DJ Baby Anne opening for DJ Kraftykuts at Icon. The increasingly popular DJ Chris b is also on the dance card. This is the third of four Baby Anne concerts in Orlando this summer; she is promoting her new Babylicious CD.

Saturday night, Mannequins fans should not miss DJ Mickey Bono's opening night at Vocal at Lyrica. Lyrica is the club previously known as Cairo and they're bringing in the DJ that previously made Bliss so popular on Saturday nights. This is all vocal House/Dance (music with vocals), not music that puts you to sleep! If you register at www.vocalorlando.com, you can get in for just $2. Lot's of drink specials. Over at Vintage is a guy who knows how to play Mannequins music because he used to work there! That's none other than DJ Dominick Morrison. He mixes House with Top 40 and the place is usually jammed. The dance floor is puny though. Admission is typically free before 11pm. Finally, 70's Rock fans might like REO Speedwagon and 80's fans might like Pat Benatar as they are this Saturday's Summer Concert Series act at Universal. The large expected crowd will lead to overflowing crowds at CityWalk clubs too!

Sunday night you need to decide if you can make it out 4 nights in a row! DJ Sander Kleinenberg (NL) is spinning Trance and Deep House at Icon, competing against the ever popular Service Industry Night at House of Blues in Downtown Disney West Side. As it's a holiday weekend, that means resident DJ Sandy is joined by local favorite DJ Magic Mike. But that also usually means less Techno and more Hip Hop.
