Boom Boom Room is Chicago’s longest running club night, with its latest reincarnation popping up at Green Dolphin under the careful shepherding of long-time house promoters Music 101. But after four years, the promoter and the party are splitting ways, with resident DJ Just Joey taking over booking for the night, and Music 101 vowing to take their extensive network and branding to another place. While the fallout of the split continues to settle (stay tuned!) Boom Boom jacks onward, with tonight’s party celebrating the birthday of Dust Traxx label head Radek Hawryszczuk, and featuring just about every DJ on his payroll in a knock-down tag-team battle royale. Angel Alanis and the Lady Foursquare (who do a sinister rework of Joy Division’s “She’s Lost Control”) as well as Frankie Vega are among those scheduled to spin. Oh, did we mention Chicago legends DJ Funk and Paul Johnson will also be on hand? (Duke Shin)
