05.08 🪩 @sirens_la lights up the Los Angeles underground ft. @fabriziomammarella with support from resident @colours.87 , @me.djkerry and @sssueno for a night of modern italo passion ! Fabrizio Mammarella is an Italian DJ, producer, and label owner with a long-standing presence in the underground scene. His sound blends italo disco, wave, and dark electronic textures into hypnotic, analog-driven club music. His discography includes dozens of club anthems, remixes, and notable collaborations with Lauer (as Black Spuma), Rodion, and Clap Rules. Since his first release in 2004, Fabrizio has consistently delivered music on labels such as DFA, Permanent Vacation, Correspondant, Les Disques De La Mort, Future Boogie, and his own imprints Slow Motion Music and Wrong Era, helping define the Italian Dance Wave movement for over a decade. Joining him on the lineup are the groove-driven DJ Kerry (The Basement LA), the synth-laced Colours’87 (Dancing Therapy), the hypnotic Nicoshi (Sirens), and the dreamy, genre-blurring Sueño, setting the tone from open to close with a blend of indie dance, italo disco, and forward-leaning club sounds.

02.26 🪩 @dancingtherapy.world returns to @clubteegee for another episode of ITALO MEGAMIX - a 4 hour journey of pure italo disco magic under the disco ball. Ft. special guest... @prettygayfriendly Pretty Gay Friendly is a Los Angeles–based DJ known for long-form, floor-aware sets rooted in disco, house, and groove-forward club music. With a patient, emotional approach shaped by years on queer dance floors, his selections prioritize, flow, restraint, and connection over trends or spectacle. A resident and organiser within LA’s community-driven nightlife, he has played alongside and for parties including Horse Meat Disco, Bears In Space, Dry Heat, Basement, and Take It Outside. His radio work spans dublab, KCHUNG, VPN Radio, and N10s (Montreal), where he explores extended, genre-fluid listening beyond the club. Equally comfortable opening a room, guiding an all-night journey, or building energy from day into dusk, Pretty Gay Friendly brings a trusted, grounded sensibility to every dance floor. https://linktr.ee/prettygayfriendly + @colours.87 Dancing Therapy resident Colours 87 has been steadily building his collection of Italo Disco, New Wave and Synth Pop anthems carefully selected for live play at our events - adding new pieces weekly to share /colours.87 Free all night long with RSVP (which grants front of line door access) /clubteegee /dancingtherapy.world

Thank You #SF for an amazing night with the @nowthatswhaticallitalodisco crew at @rickshawstop ! It was an all time party and I had the pleasure of playing a b2b vinyl set with my man @dj_playstation to close out their 3 year anniversary! This night was a milestone for me as I continue to learn to DJ pure vinyl sets and this crew (especially Dre) have always encouraged and inspired me to focus and build my skill set ! It’s been a journey that started last year when he invited me up to play and I’m excited to continue building my collection and honing my craft as I bring it back to #LA and beyond for our @dancingtherapy.world parties. See you soon San Francisco ❤️🪩 - shouts to @fsqofficial , @dj_cira and @_maneuve for slaying the opening sets!
