Ruby Cherry Rose runs their Jazz House series with local DJs and a guest from New York this week. The whole thing is built around live jazz musicians playing alongside the DJs, which is unlike anything else in Taipei.
Our Jazz House party is back this Friday. A DJ friend from New York is joining us with an exclusive set, introducing some jazzy minimal, acid jazz, and a subtle touch of funky bass. As always, the sexiness and groove of improvised live jazz intertwined with house music remain at our core.

Final hosts a queer-friendly art party with heavy thematic direction. Betty Apple performs as 'Mother' alongside Kaynkenchen's monstrous installation. Strict dress code: gothic, ascetic, ritual aesthetics. Can someone explain to me what the fuck is happening on that night?
The fettered soul cultivates in silence, longing for the day of true conversion. Praying through day and night, hoping the restlessness within may finally find salvation. Is this a monastery or a den of temptation? I came to offer a vow, but ended up drowning in shamed resentment.
