Electronic monster mash

Whether you're a tight-pants-wearin-indie-disco ghost, an abstract-electronica ghoul or a hooded-hip-hop werewolf, Late Night Social Club's lineup for the biggest monster mash of the season has something for all music fiends to creepily enjoy.

The DJ collective LNSC, organized the Terror Halloween Party, which will bring together one of the most eclectic lineups across the underground electronic map in a mini-costume-themed festival.

The night's main feature acts will be a DJ set from veteran nu-disco kids and DFA records natives, Holy Ghost!

Representing Los Angeles' Brainfeeder Records, which houses everyone from Flying Lotus to Gaslamp Killer, the spacey-abstract beatsmith Nosaj Thing and house legend JT Donaldson will make an appearance, while the classic hip-hop and funk-junkie Peanut Butter Wolf headlines the nightmarish event.

"I think our scene deserves what all these other big cities have got," said Joe Nava, event organizer and DJ from LNSC. "We are putting basically four of the best of their genre into one lineup, this is the kind of lineup you would see at a (Coachella Music and Arts Festival) after party or a big event for South by Southwest, and we are putting it all in one show on one of the biggest weekends in the country, so I think for El Paso, it's really going to put us on the map."

Headliner Peanut Butter Wolf will also be doing one of his well-known VJ sets, which involves a slew of pop culture and classic hip-hop music videos, blended and synchronized to his DJ mix.

The NovelTone duo, which hails from Austin and Dallas, will also stop by to lay down a live electronic set.

"Everybody is a really high caliber of artist, so it's going to be good to hang with everybody," said JT Donaldson, who is a notorious house genre DJ. "Peanut Butter Wolf and Holy Ghost! I've seen play at the Lollapalooza show and Fool's Gold party in Chicago, so to be on the same bill as those guys is a definite treat."

Local acts and guests will open the night, as a showcase of El Paso's underground music talent. As a part of LNSC family, Cult Heroes will drop a funky-soul mix filled with 45 vinyl records. Bulletproof Tiger will hit the crowd with hard electronic-rock bangers, and The D.A. will offer their moveable-indie-new-wave sounds.

There will be a special tag team DJ set by turntablists Systemaddict and One Man Jazz.

"I expect everyone to walk out of there drenched in sweat because it's going to be one not to miss," said Cesar Muniz, keyboardist for The D.A. "Everyone is going to have a good time and there is going to be a lot of dancing."

The Terror Halloween costume party will kick off at 8 p.m. Oct. 29 at Republic Night Club in Downtown El Paso.

Tickets are $25 before the day of the event and can be purchased at All That Music, El Pisto, Republic, the Headstand and Ticketbully.com.
