OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE - CUT&PASTE
Beyond is a happy hour event held every Wednesday night from 6PM to 11PM in the Upstairs lounge above Skewers and Café Luna restaurants at 1633 P St NW (at the corner of 17th St and P St). The event features local and national DJs from all over the east coast playing a wide variety of music as well as drink specials and Moroccan tapas.

Music is the key to the event’s existence and DJs spin everything from dubstep to downtempo, underground hip-hop, indie rock, and reggae. The event serves as an outlet for DJs to play music seldom heard in DC, and thus fosters a spirit of creativity and inclusiveness. Since its start in May 2007, a number of nationally recognized DJs have played at Beyond, coming from as far away as New York City. The weekly guest DJs are joined by residents Dan Amitai, Dave Bloom and Adrian Parsons.

The event is held in a beautifully decorated lounge reminiscent of North Africa, a short walk away from both the U St-Cardozo and the Dupont Circle Metro stations. Beyond features $2 beers, $3 Pomegranate Martinis and $4 Ketel One martinis until 8PM, with drink prices going up by just a dollar after that. There is also a special $2 tapas menu from Skewers all night long, as well as that restaurant’s full menu; extensive vegetarian options are available.

Thanks for coming out last night -- and I would need to thank a lot of people because the place was pretty packed for a second. Great tunes by Dave as usual. ATTN promoters -- you should book this Bob character for your house nights, good stuff and an all-vinyl set. Will Eastman did was Will Eastman does, great tunes and even accommodated me and Ben with a rewind. There was some silly ho there that called me an asshole :( that was the lowest point of the evening though, so I came out on top (usually I get called an asshole at least a dozen times a night).

Next week, MCs, DJs, dark tunes... check it out
