1. Policy - WaHi - forthcoming Wicked Bass

Known for their eclectic, aggressively underground booking style, the monthly event, recently moved to Greenpoint, has become a regular stop for those seeking a therapeutic moment on the dance floor.

If you're into flawlessly mixed, groovy, vocal house tunes with a slightly darker, late night feeling, then check this one out. I've been a fan of many of Saputo's mixes, and this is another one for the iPhone playlist...
