For the next edition of Oktave, we continue to celebrate New York City techno residents when we host Blk|Market Membership's Taimur+Fahad. Blk|Market has been on fire in 2009, hosting some of the world's best DJs including the Wighnomy Brothers, Reboot, Dixon and Richie Hawtin. With upcoming shows featuring Sasha and DJ Koze, Blk|Market is really making its mark on New York's techno scene. We're pleased to present the Blk|Market residents in a headlining capacity this time around, for a night of deep and delicious beats on the Lower East Side. Oktave resident Jeff Derringer will open the night, followed by an extended set from Taimur+ Fahad.
Newcomer White Slab boasts a 'secret room' with killer sound just off the kitchen entrance. Just pass through a couple of doorways and follow the music. They've got a great bar with a wide array of beers and specialty cocktails. Beers start at $4 and cocktails at $6. Vodka drink specials for $3 from 10-12pm.
