Saturday, Oct 24 Music For The Masses: Dark 80s New Wave Halloween

About the party

Music For The Masses brings a Halloween edition of its dark 80s new wave night to TV Eye in Ridgewood on Saturday, October 24. Alex English leads the night with guests, and the whole evening is built around one era: the darker, synth-driven side of the 1980s. It runs from 11 PM to 3 AM, the weekend before Halloween itself.

What to expect

A focused, single-genre dance night rather than a big production: the listing promises a floor of dark 80s new wave favorites. The listing does not say anything about costumes or a dress code, so treat both as not confirmed. My take: this suits people who want a Halloween-season night out where the soundtrack is The Cure and Depeche Mode rather than club music.

Music and lineup

DJ confirmed by the DICE listing: Alex English, with guests who are not named. The listing describes the music as dark 80s new wave and cites the kind of artists played, such as Depeche Mode, New Order, Joy Division, The Cure, Sisters of Mercy, Bowie, The Smiths, Nitzer Ebb, Siouxsie and the Banshees, OMD, Duran Duran, Echo and the Bunnymen and Front 242. These are artists whose records get played, not live performers. Set times are not confirmed.

Doors at 11 PM, listed end 3 AM. The event is 21+, so bring valid ID.
