First ever “Classics” party in Sacramento with the legendary Barry Weaver!
Posted by: | Comments
Revival Classics! Classic dance music; Brought to you by a West Coast dance music legend, with 20+ years experience behind the decks, Barry Weaver takes control of the sound system in the main room at Faces (best sound system in Sac). Expect original classics from the 80’s and 90’s, modern classics from the last decade, and the future classics of tomorrow… Also featuring Gavin Varitech as the opening act and VJ Mr Jon on the video screens all night long. And for the early birds a special playing of Manuel Göttsching’s E2-E4 in it’s entirety from 9PM – 10PM before the deejays start playing the first records.
Featuring…
Barry Weaver
-san diego (closing set)
Gavin Varitech
-sacramento (opening set)
Mr Jon

Faces does NOT do guestlist but Revival Nitelife has one for this night only. Of course the entire club will be open as well and the Revival list is good for all of the rooms at the club…
What happens now?

New weekly club night opening May 22nd: Escape with special guest DJ from LA!
Posted by: | CommentsThere is a brand new weekly dance event beginning weekly in Sacramento this weekend. ‘Escape’ inside the Fugu Lounge. If you haven’t heard of this venue it may be because it’s not in downtown/midtown like almost everything else. Fugu is actually in Natomas, very close to Arco Arena. On May 22nd the promoters of this all-new weekly bring us DJ Heavygrinder from LA, a very special guest (and expensive booking we assume) for the grand opening. A bit of a celeb DJ of sorts but not in the talent/music department where she puts those fake “celeb” deejays to shame, H.G. is a REAL deejay…
Kontrol with THE ORB????? It’s true!
Posted by: | Comments
That is right, not only is Orbital coming to San Francisco this month but Thomas Fehlmann of THE ORB is playing at the best monthly event in Northern California, [KONTROL] @ the End Up, tonight (April 3rd, 2010). It’s really weird to me, having half of The Orb playing in SF for what must be the first time in well over a decade (Gathering???) , and having it be a deejay set at Kontrol no less. I don’t know if Thomas is touring to promote his amazing new artist album or Kontrol just pulled out all the stop to make this booking happen but I can’t wait, another long night/morning with Kontrol on that End Up soundsystem!!! With The Orb no less!!!!
Take notice Sacramento clubs! No, we’re not expecting a booking like Thomas Fehlmann, but some nice and innovative club nights in the capital city would be nice.
Orbital at the Warfield April 16th, 2010

It’s been a long time coming, and thank God the time has come, as the amazing electronic duo Orbital is about to put on a great show before their Coachella outing. Coming this April 16th Orbital will be at the Warfield in San Francisco!
It’s going to be a great show at a fantastic up close and personal venue!
So… Who’s going to the WMC in Miami?
Posted by: | CommentsRevival will not be represented this year and we want to hear your stories! Let us know if you’re going and give us a report when you get back…
Incredible interview and music history lesson with Theo Parrish!
Posted by: | CommentsI don’t have much to add to this one. Just let a legend take you on his journey through the history of club music, how it happened from his perspective, and how it got to where we are today. Enjoy…
This Thursday in SF: Deepchild
Posted by: | Comments
This Thursday, March 11th, the Revival crew is taking a trip to Phonic at San Francisco’s legendary End Up to party with our friend Deepchild. Many of you were here when Revival Nightlife and Mixture brought you Deepchild @ Faces last March and, because no Sacramento club will be bringing him back this time around, we’re going to travel to the storied SF nightclub for a night of proper clubbing with Deepchild and a capable supporting cast featuring Worthy and J Philp.
The End Up (for those that don’t know) is located at the corner of 6th and Harrison in San Francisco, CA.
[CANCELLED] The Marco Carola Event @ Vessel SF has been cancelled.
Posted by: | CommentsWe recent found out that the Marco Carola party at Vessel SF has been canceled and no one seems to know who the original promoter was and what happened. The Facebook event page and the event page on SonicLiving.com (how we found out about it) has been removed.
Vessel has confirmed 100% that this event is not happening. HOWEVER Audiofly IS scheduled to play at Vessel on March 18th and when they came to play in Sacramento last year they were phenomenal. Marco is our favorite, but Audiofly is dope! Might still be worth the trip from Sac…

Here’s a wonderful review from Electronic Musician: NI Audio Kontrol 1
