Spotlighting guest DJ — who will be joining Strict Tempo founder .sinistra behind the decks for the inaugural Breathless - ‘80s Synth Underground night! 💃🪩 Thursday 8pm-close 🎉

Steve Skeletal has been involved with the goth and new wave music scenes since he was a teenager. He grew up mostly in Kentucky and relocated to Boston, Massachusetts when he was 18 years old. After moving to California, he started singing in bands, and currently fronts Only Theatre Of Pain (featuring original members of Christian Death). Steve usually DJs goth and new wave, but also loves spinning 80s-90s pop, dance, Italo, freestyle, shoegaze, industrial, and classic rock. Steve currently hosts two monthly clubs in LA: A dance night called Batastrophe, as well as Ritual, which focuses on live bands. Both clubs usually lean towards old school goth/deathrock.
