What’s happening South Africa!? With our finger on the proverbial pulse of this beast that spawns-off event after event, each weekend, week-in and week-out, we like to put together a list of ‘don’t miss’ events each and every Friday for our series called - What’s Happening SA? From ramblings on the net, to conversations in the bathrooms of our favourite clubs, from the inside-info that finds its way into our inbox, to straight up just searching for what we’re looking for in a dancefloor, Pulse offers a selection of events mostly in the Cape and Gauteng regions that demands your attention, and really shouldn’t be missed.
What’s Happening Cape Town?
Bassmint time! Get down there early to celebrate one of South Africa's well-respected DJ's both locally and internationally - Dean Fuel. He will be playing alongsideChris Jack and the Bassmint residents Dan C and Matt Blitz.
The Sideshow featuring Das Kapital, Leechi, Blitzkrieg, Grimehouse and more.
Filth carnage and mayhem on tap at The Side Show every Friday - with 2 dancefloors playing the most up front, in-your-face dance music - from the minimal tech, progressive, deep house vibes in the VIP Upstairs to the madness and thundering basseline of the downstairs floor where you'll get a dose of electro, house, filth, dubstep, D&B and Trance.
This Friday they have yet another GREAT combination of some of South Africa's most talented artists along with an international artist from the UK. Expect a night of the finest music played by some of the top artists SA has to offer! Forget about genre's and embrace music to the fullest!
