HER SMELL from Gunpowder & Sky
Becky Something (Elisabeth Moss, The Handmaid’s Tale) is a '90s rock superstar who once filled arenas with her band Something She. When her excesses derail a national tour, she's forced to reckon with her past while recapturing the inspiration that led her band to success. Featuring an all-star cast, including Cara Delevingne (Suicide Squad), Dan Stevens (Downton Abbey), Amber Heard (Aquaman), Her Smell is director Alex Ross Perry’s “greatest achievement yet” (The Daily Beast).
--
Kaala Movie Nights is every 2nd Monday at Substation in Ballard, Seattle, showing primarily Japanese and music-oriented films that are likely to appeal to dark hearts.

Dialed is back after an AMAZING time with J.Phlip. But coming in hot for June, we have a very versatile artist, that we couldn't be more stoke to bring. LUX GROOVE!
Open Decks will be starting at 8pm this evening, and will be going for 2 HOURS!
DNB IN THE FRONT ROOM! Really stoked to add this addition to Dialed, and we have some of the baddest mofos in town coming through.
Dialed In
Lux Groove
R-Pal
Tony H
Dizzles N Bizzles
Zachariah
Iris
Jason Curtis
Lux Groove began to experiment with other genres of music which led him into house music and wanted to be more than just a DJ. Very influenced by Justin Martin and other Dirtybird Record members Lux Groove began to start producing and after a short period of time had his first EP called "From The Back" which is now signed to Worthy's Anabatic record label. Releasing with record labels such as Dirtybird, This Ain't Bristol, Perfect Driver, Main Course, Sounds of Sumo and many more has proven that his dedication and success will continue. Lux Groove has performed along side and shared the stage with Kill Frenzy, Worthy, Mark Starr, Christian Martin and many more. Lux Groove is sure to continue to produce bass driven forward thinking house music and also his live performances are sure to rock any crowd, putting to use his heavy turntablism background mixed in with his style of bass house music. Expect to hear much more coming from Lux Groove.

Aromatics (Psycobilly- Punk // Seattle)
inhalearomatics.bandcamp.com/
Receptacles signed to Maternal Voice (No-Wave-Punk // Stockholm, Sweden)
Receptacles make music that disturbs easy categorization. While listeners may hear influences from no-wave, afro-beat, free jazz, funk or punk, Receptacles are not simply a mix of these styles. They have harnessed an essence of spontaneity and in doing so have created something unique and completely their own.
Receptacles wilfully instigate and manipulate an elasticity of form, key, tempo and metre. The absurdist, spoken- word lyrics act as the lynchpin in the reckless, hectic, headlong, joyful collision of rhythms and riffs. An anarchistic relationship to group dynamics ensures a strong, original, unified sound, where the sum is more than the parts, and yet the parts are more than the sum.

Look Up Fest: Mars will showcase a curated selection of 12 psychedelic dream pop bands from the Pacific Northwest and beyond on Saturday 9/7 at Substation.
Look Up Fest, the lodge for high strangeness in the PNW, is a bi-annual mini music festival organized by paranormal label Look Up Records.
For our 3rd Look Up Fest, we’re channeling the red sky giant, featuring space-age music plus Martian experiences and a terraforming mission.
In addition to great live music, attendees can expect mind-bending visuals, immersive Martian environments, a photo booth, paranormal stories, and alien surprises only Look Up Fest would concoct.

SUPPORT MUSIC ON MARS
There is currently no music on Mars. There are no Martian artist grants. There are no venues, no recording studios, not even a CD player. It’s depressing AF. We want to change that.
A MIXTAPE FOR MARTIAN COLONISTS
We’re putting together a mixtape that colonists can take with them when they go to Mars. It’s going to be a long, isolated journey, so we might as well entertain them. The album will be made of songs from musicians that perform at Look Up Fest: Mars and will be available for sale at the event.
DEAR NASA AND SPACEX
The mixtape for astronauts will be mailed to SpaceX, NASA, and other entities proposing Martian travel, along with a message of goodwill:
Dear Astro-travelers,
Hey there. We like what you’re doing. We think it’s cool. We just want to make sure Martian colonies and other future terraformed human existences are full of art, inspiration, and retain goodwill toward all lifeforms. We’re sending you this mixtape to play when you’re bored, and to share with other cosmic beings you may meet. Let’s keep space safe.
Always looking up,
— Seattle-based weirdos
RAFFLE TO RAISE FUNDS FOR BEACON FOOD FOREST
Before we terraform Mars, there's a lot we can do to improve living ecosystems on Earth. For this event, our raffle will be raising funds for the Beacon Food Forest (BFF). The BFF is a unique open harvest model, a community-supported urban garden that’s completely open to the public to forage. Their mission: "To improve public health by regenerating our public land into an edible forest ecosystem. We work to reduce agricultural climate impact, improve our local food security, provide educational opportunities, and celebrate growing food for the benefit of all species.”
