Underground Resistance All Night
The legendary force that is Underground Resistance returns to Nowadays for a night of pure Detroit techno insurgency through sound, an assault on complacency to rewire our neural pathways and remind us why techno was born as music of rebellion.
Born from the post-industrial ashes of Motor City, Underground Resistance has spent decades crafting the blueprint for techno as resistance movement. Tonight, expect no compromise: raw, unfiltered transmissions from the frontlines of electronic music's most uncompromising collective. From grinding industrial funk to space-age minimalism, this all-night session will span the full spectrum of Detroit's electronic DNA—hardcore beats, acid-laced sequences, and futuristic soul.
“Underground Resistance is a label for a movement.
A movement that wants change by sonic revolution.
We urge you to join the resistance and help us combat the mediocre audio and visual programming that is being fed to the inhabitants of Earth, this programming is stagnating the minds of the people; building a wall between races and preventing world peace.
It is this wall we are going to smash.
By using the untapped energy potential of sound we are going to destroy this wall much the same as certain frequencies shatter glass.
Techno is a music based in experimentation; it is music for the future of the human race.
Without this music there will be no peace, no love, no vision.
By simply communicating through sound, techno has brought people of all different nationalities together under one roof to enjoy themselves.
Isn't it obvious that music and dance are the keys to the universe?
So called primitive animals and tribal humans have known this for thousands of years!
We urge all brothers and sisters of the underground to create and transmit their tones and frequencies no matter how so called primitive their equipment may be.
Transmit these tones and wreak havoc on the programmers!”

RSVP is $10 before 11pm and $15 before midnight.
An RSVP is good for one person. If you're bringing friends, please have them RSVP here as well.
We stop taking RSVPs at 6pm on the day of the party. In order to receive the RSVP discount, you must be at the ticket desk by the cutoff time and not just in line. It's wise to arrive early to make sure you're not standing in line when the time comes.
An RSVP does not guarantee entry. Sometimes parties do sell out, so if you want to be sure you'll get in, it's best to grab a ticket in advance.
///
Entry is at the discretion of our door staff. Online purchases are limited to four tickets maximum per person. If tickets are sold out here, we always hold a good amount at the door. We will do our best to admit those without tickets but entrance is not guaranteed.
Violence, non-consensual touching, racist, homophobic, transphobic, sexist, ageist or other discriminatory language, and leering are not allowed within our walls or in our back yard. If someone says or does something to make you feel uncomfortable while you’re here, let us know.

Accessibility:
The wheelchair entrance to our indoor space is in the driveway, which is the access point most commonly used to enter Nowadays. During parties the driveway gate is locked, so please ask staff at the street entrance for assistance with entry.
All of our bathrooms are gender-neutral. There is one accessible stall indoors. Just ask any Nowadays staff member for the key, and they can show you the way. During parties, seating is available both on and off the dance floor. While we don’t have a dedicated quiet space indoors during parties, the booths next to coat check are a little quieter, and the deck and back yard a little quieter than that. Most nighttime parties include the use of strobe lights and water based haze.
