It is with a great amount of regret and sadness, I'm announcing that I am no longer working with Haven Nightclub.
My reasons for ending my involvement with Haven are private, personal, and not something I intend to discuss publicly.
For over ten years Haven has been my passion and I have a great love for it and the community I served while a member of its staff working as its promoter and as one of its DJs.
It offered me opportunities and experiences I will always cherish. Where ever Haven goes from here, I hope for the best.
It is possible management will be looking for someone to provide sound for the coming party.
If you are in a position to rent them equipment, please seek them out to make arrangements.
I truly regret the timing, but as they say, all things change. As much as I am saddened by this change I am also looking forward to sharing news about other changes soon.
To the Havenite community, thank you for all your support over the years. I will never forget and I hope to see you on another dancefloor soon.

HaVeN's 22nd Anniversary & Masquerade Ball was a kind of incredible reminder of how meaningful this enterprise is to the oldest of Havenite, the newest, and everyone in between. For myself, it has not been without its ups and downs, but I am ever honored to have been a part of its history for nearly 11 years (almost half its entire existence!) in my role as one of its DJs and promoters. I thank everyone involved for that opportunity and privilege.

Next month we're throwing another Industrial Pajama Party and we expect to see more progress on the renovations to Club V that you may have noticed are underway!

HaVeN's Fairy Flurry was a bunch of fun and our first reveal that RENOVATIONS ARE COMING TO WHAT IS BEING REFERRED TO NOW AS "CLUB V!"
That includes decor, design, and sound! There's a long list of things they are looking to do and it seems they have really taken an interest in making it a local center for supporting alternative subcultures. The entire prospect is exciting!
Expect some of said renovations to be ready in time for HaVeN's 22ND ANNIVERSARY next month!
I'll remind you, I have only been with HaVeN for nearly half that time as a part of its history, like many who have come or gone, and it continues to be an honor to serve its community in my role as DJ & promoter.

Thank you all for coming out! And additional thanks to the Havenite Squad that stuck around after to help with a quick and efficient break down of the decorations; You have no idea how much that was appreciated!

HaVeN's first Black Cat Ball, WHISKERS, was a really fun night! Lot of new faces and some we hadn't seen in a while. Certainly debunks any notion that "the scene is dying," which we've heard time and again for the past decade.
Speaking of the decade, in roughly two weeks I celebrate the 10 year anniversary of the first time I spun at HaVeN. Sadly, its one of very few playlists I've misplaced. I still remember how I accidentally stopped and had to restart one of the last songs in that first-hour set. Things from which you learn, right?
So at Haven's Goth 101 Back To School party on September 29, I may do something special for everyone. Keep an eye on my site for the link to the invitation and RSVP when you see it. Should be up in the next few days!

Though I played maybe three cover songs, there was only one on my playlist that I've featured on my SeeDarkly SundayDisCoveries blog, but I've still included a link to its entry for those who want to learn more about it. (It had a nice cat-like stride about it to open the night!) Enjoy!
