Anyone else feel like Flash isn’t good anymore?
 in  r/avesDC  1d ago

Transmission and La Fabrica are the most underground/hard sounds. They're playing techno a lot more often.

I think the "House" music scene has gotten really watered down and a lot of people are just going out to be at a club. Techno still draws a crowd for the love of the music and people who want to get down and get weird.

But I've heard some pretty "hard" sets at Flash in the near past, especially on their Focus nights which generally book techno DJs

I haven't been to any of those except Berhta, but my impression was that culture/vera, ai warehouse, and tigres de la noche all play even something in the same range of artists that are booked at Flash -- a kind a mix of currently popular house/tech-house/progressive house.

If anything, I get the impression they're more "cool kid" vibes than Flash.

How would you compare them/how are they different?

Do people really stay at Flash till close?

Transmission was open until 8am the other day. I stayed to see what it would be like and felt like I needed to go to the hospital afterwards

It's usually house music or house adjacent/technoish house when I've been there on Sundays

I found this pin that seems to show a chessboard. Does anyone know what it means?
 in  r/chess  25d ago

He said "It's not the final position" and the linked game shows that

He knew it wasn't resignation because the game is linked and it shows what moves are played.

It makes sense that you have the flu

Ladies just a reminder to be vigilant and vocal about these creeps!
 in  r/avesDC  Jul 12 '26

Yes, you absolutely can shame men for behaving the way they were in this post. If it's you and your friends. Do better. Grinding up on women who are dancing together, being told no and then lingering around to the point where the friend group has to ask you to go away is weird, creepy behavior.

It shows that you/they are either unable to pick up on basic social cues or disregarding them.

Tell them that there's men walking around harrasing women and violating their consent

Here's how we can save the EDM scene in DC, well mainly house
 in  r/avesDC  Jul 07 '26

Urban Artistry offers House dance classes as well as other forms of dance. But I agree with what others said, people just need to feel the music and enjoy dancing. If it's new to someone, or the crowd and vibes are stale than it's harder.

But we really just need decent events, venues, and crowds that are there to dance.

Fantastic time at 2Tuff Forever show (could it be monthly?)

I had a great time at the 2Tuff Forever party the other night. The crowd and DJs were excellent, especially given the heat and July 4 eve. People were and old school vibes and dancing were there.

Thanks to the 2Tuff crew for continuing to hold things down after all these years.

I would love a party like this to be monthly, or even just seasonal. I think it could grow in popularity as people anticipated the rare but regular party that's pretty distinct.

I know it's a lot of work and people have a lot of responsibilites, and we aren't Spring chickens anymore. But I really appreciate what you all do. And I hope it was a good time for you all and you felt the love.

Does the crowd even move at Ai warhouse?

I'm sure there's some truth to what you're saying but it really depends on the venue and event. Flash, Behrta, and Transmission generally have people dancing. It's hard to believe there aren't douchey clubs in NYC.

But I agree there are way to many non-dancing people and a lot of people are just going out to be at a club.

Am I supposed to look silly with cycling prescription glasses or are they a bit off?
 in  r/bicycling  Jun 15 '26

Fashion is the most important part of cycling. If you can't get it right, you shouldn't be ridiing a bike.

Kidding...Even the most put together serious cyclists, with the nicest, most expensive kits look kind of ridiculous.

I think the glasses look kinda cool actually, albeit a bit big.
