Oyez! Oyez! Pendu Disco is switching gears! Your favorite weekly has now metamorphosed into your favorite monthly. That means if you miss out on tonight, your life is destined to be an empty shell for the next 30 days or so. With performances by Cosmetics, Cult of Youth, King Dude, DJ magic by Bryan K of White Ring, and light throwing by Laurel Halo, tonight is sure to be a classic. And remember, the fog is always free. More details (here)
And if you haven't already, be sure and become a fan of Pendu NYC on Facebook so as to stay up to date on happenings and other associated wonderful things. See you at Glasslands.
The ever enigmatic master($) of tropical punch infused dark dancefloor anthems known as Black Devil --> Black Devil Disco Club are playing Pendu Disco this Tuesday at Glasslands! If you're not excited, come and find out why you should be. Facebook invite is (here). Order your tickets online by midnight tonight (Monday) and it will only set you back $12, as opposed to $15 at the door. This is one of those shows that just won't happen again. Doesn't matter how many electronic music festivals you're going to. + some of the best veteran Tuesday Disco DJs are warming things up. Beyond worth it
In other news, I've started writing reviews for the always fun and unpredictable International Tapes, so be sure and check back there regularly for tapes from across the multiverse, exclusive mixes, and tape reviews. Don't worry, I'll pester you about it, too. Superb entertainment. Exciting stuff all around
I am now accepting submissions of art, fiction (short), truth, photography, .gifs, music and film for review, comics, and animation for an upcoming online publication that does not have a name yet
The rough theme is "the ladies." Emphasis on rough. Abstractly related works are very much encouraged

Please send submissions to: zinenblogen@gmail.com
GOOD NEWS #1
To accommodate those interested in submitting but feeling a little short on time, the submission deadline is now 9/16! That's one whole extra month, but early submissions will still receive preferential consideration
Thanks to everyone who's submitted their work so far! Things are shaping up nicely already. We're all very encouraged with the process and are looking forward to seeing anything you have to show us. Let's do this!
GOOD NEWS #2
I'm now a regular contributor at Pendu Mag. If you read this blog regularly (read: sit poring over every single entry repeatedly reliving the glory of past), you are probably aware that I've been a huge admirer of everything they do over there at Pendu for a good while. On top of my regular recaps of Pendu Disco and other events, there are plenty of things to watch and listen to, so give it a look. Writing about music is so much easier when the music doesn't suck, am I right?
This week Pendu Disco features the sonic ice sculptures of Gatekeeper, the Britain-bound minimalish pop of Von Haze, and a dancefloor curated by Shawn NoEQ of the post-punkling soundtrack enthusiasts known as LED ER EST and Katie Rose of the always amazing Further Reductions. Be sure and visit the Pendu events page (link) for music and future/past events. See you at Glasslands every Tuesday until the world ends
Read the flyer. Further details (here). Let's make it awesome!
And be sure and check out my write up of last week's Pendu Disco in Pendu Mag. This next week Cruel Black Dove, Other Crimes, and DJ Jeralyn. Come feel the roar. See you there! As in at both of these events! Go/come! Bye!
