Things are getting big again as the summer flows away. Tonight we have leftfield parties in four spots: FREE the WAX's birthday at The Shelter; Knives Out at Not Me; it's Dadarock at Dada; and Jah! at LOgO. It's enough to make us wish we had eight legs. Two for each dancefloor, you see. If we did have eight legs, we'd probably go and show them off at this big gay party.

More big gay fun tomorrow at Shanghai Studio's Drag Party. DJ Sacco tells us he's planning a Patrick Swayze-themed set, with stripping, bow ties and that lift-the-girl-up bit from Dirty Dancing. Come in drag for free entry and a free drink. Meanwhile, there's beautiful noise terror at Live Sound Garage, Beijing's Bigger Bang at Yuyintang (aftershow party at Not Me) and - pick of the weekend, people, we're going big font for this, it's

Underground Resistance's DJ Santiago Salazar

at The Shelter with Void. That means supremely beautiful Detroit synthy rhythms with a slight Latin flavor and undercurrents of African American militantism. Underground Resistance's troops play maybe once a year in China. Be there, or be part of the sucky mainstream.

If you've got any dance left in you, the only place to be on Sunday night is Dada, for this new disco party.

Now, that's quite enough fun for one weekend.
