If you didn't break the bank on the holidays, here's a rundown of top notch NYE parties in NYC with varying degrees of coin required to boogie...

I'm working on getting a new mix together for you, sorry its now an annual occurrence...Here's a link to last year's slow-mo disco New Year's Day mix.

Primetime at Santo's Party House ($$$$)
Label Du Jour Italian's Do It Better drop knowledge with bossman Mike Simonetti and Invisible Conga People playing live with Residents James F'ing Friedman and Eamon Harkin all down in the basement...rockier mayhem upstairs.

Le Poison Rouge Late Night 2 am +++ ($$$)
Ghostly is at the Red Fish with Matthew Dear, Michna, Mike Servito, and T&B boss Drop the Lime.

$20 tickets are here with discount code NYEDISCOUNT.

Secret Squirrel Loft Party ($$)
Runaway (Jacques Renault + Marcos Cabral), John Selway, Cowboy Mark, and a host of others destroy a Brooklyn Loft. RSVP to addict@enablernetwork.org for info and location.

Masquerade Ball at Trophy Bar (practically $)!
Want to make out with a masked stranger? Farika hosts a slightly dressy affair at our favorite spot in all of the five boroughs with dirty disco from Lee Douglas, Matt Cash, and Farika herself! Seriously only $5 with a mask and $10 without, but they'll put you in one before you walk in the door...RSVP here too.

David Bruno & Robot Blair - Live at PDDNM December (part 1 & part 2)

As a little gift from us to you, here is a couple of hours worth of disco jamz that Blair and I recorded at our last People Don't Dance No More party.

Just a quickie today (or the past few weeks), Holiday season in retailing is not fun, particularly this year...

If you are in London, you should definitely try and get down to the CUBE club in Shoreditch. Of course there's Horsemeat Disco, but it seems that there's more disco madness happening in the foggy nights...

Saturday Nights with Ben Trucker, Serge Santiago, and Joel Martin are on the December schedule.

Here's an uplifting mix from Dissident Distribution's Andy Blake (who's playing at the Cube New Years Day maraton party).
