WOMP is a Bay Area weekly held at the Oakland Metro Operahouse on Wednesdays. There are also WOMP-related events (WOMP Island, Stereo Love, etc...). I'm always there and am part of the staff so I'mma just post up the flyers and lineups so folks have one convenient thread to check.

I'll be posting the current info here in the OP, as well as links to photos and videos here as they come available.

I could use my patented "Nag Krishna every time I see him for weeks on end" method.

It worked for Hygro ;D

But I definitely, definitely support the FaderWave meetup idea. LET'S DO EET.

Unfortunately, I have no mansion.

Pretty sure that only applies on Wednesday WOMPs :P Get all buddy-buddy with Hygro, I bet he gets a +1 ;)

Hygro
03-02-2012, 06:06 PM
im playing womp island on the 17th, but i will probably be using my +1 :P. apparently not the opener but the second 45 min timeslot lol. I actually almost preferred the opening position but I'm positive about playing there at all, seeing everyone etc. No idea what to play yet, but it should go well.

so long as I don't hit eject -,-

I heard the fans want "Does Not Compute" to make an appearance...

Hygro

I miiiiight have to back out of a gig on the 17th if I'm needed to watch some kids for that weekend, I'll throw your name as a replacement if I do if you promise to play for an 18 year old crowd.

Molbster
03-06-2012, 05:39 PM
I was kidding. I might be up at Tahoe that weekend, although that's looking more and more unlikely. If you have to back out and throw my name out there that's cool. I won't be getting my hopes up or nothing.


PS. I also don't know if we can be called DNC anymore, since i kinda compute now... :(

I've been neglecting this page for a few weeks. Oops. Anyhow, go look at the first post and check out Womp 42. I'm playing the 21+ room!

And look into WOMP Island 4/20. Another great party on the island, this time with Donald Glaude headlining!

You guys ever do any good Techno sets?

It'd be pretty cool if you stopped by! I'm almost always at any given WOMP night. It's kinda my 'home' event, in a sense.

Admittedly, the main genres for WOMP are Electro/House/Dubstep. However, both for Wednesday WOMP and WOMP Island, there's the 21+ room where anything goes. You'll still hear house and dubstep in there, but just a often you'll hear something else. Case in point: I'll be doing an all-Breaks set this week, and DJ PADD is almost always in there with at least an hour of trance. Heck, I've heard some good funky/disco house in the 21+ on the island. It's getting to be my favorite place to be just because it's a good break from the status quo and the kids :lol:

I can get into anything but i have been craving some decent live techno these past few days. What does one have to do for a slot at that "anything goes" room?

I'd say your best bet is contacting Ross.FM: https://www.facebook.com/rossfm

Send him a message, let him know who you are, send him a mix... And then let me know because then I'll subtly nag him about it :D

Holy crap I need to update this more often. WOMP and Cloud10 are doing it quite big this summer. Check the OP for some great events coming up!

I still say we need to round up some Bay Area DJF guys and do a DJF takeover of the third room. IMHO, it'd be a great way to get some more of ya known by the WOMP/C10 crew.

Hey, if we can get 4 guys that are down for it, I can send Ross mixes and pitch the idea to him.

I know Hygro wants the main room, but the 3rd room is a good place to start, and besides: I feel like our tastes are a bit more eclectic than the main room allows for (ELECTROELECTROELECTRO) :lol:

Hygro
06-05-2012, 11:50 AM
bah I only play mainrooms.


:D

Budzak

:D

First we own the 3rd room. THEN we can rock the main room.

Perhaps with a big DJF/FaderWave banner <.<

swine
06-05-2012, 11:13 PM
^banner ftw. Im a big fan of DnB so I can close up the night with some drumstep/dnb too. But no problems playing electro house either. maybe some sitar music?

Budzak
06-11-2012, 10:46 PM
DnB and drumstep is a good combo =D My buddy Nightcrawler has headlined the second room playing those two genres. I know Ross and the crew are doubly busy this week (Wednesday WOMP on the island, and then WOMP SF at the DNA Lounge) so I'll see about pitching the idea to him next week when he might have some time to actually consider it.

Budzak

Wednesday WOMP Island was a blast! Just posted up the info for WOMP SF @ DNA Lounge!

Anyone from south bay? The same people doing Womp are starting a new Thursday night called BPM. Pretty much ross and the gang in the main room but if anyone's interested in playing one of the side rooms, let me know :)
