Buck & Bounce is an amazing party showcasing Bounce & Dirty South bass music. Resident DJs Brice Nice & Beyondadoubt delve deep into Southern party genres – in fact, their impeccable taste and awareness of the scene is what brought Sissy Bounce giant Big Freedia to Portland for her first-ever West coast performance!
Brice Nice is a New Orleans party rocker, radio DJ, and record excavator who specializes in Louisiana Soul and Funk 45s, as well as New Orleans Bounce and Rap 12″s.

Discos Discos
w/ DJs Zac Eno, RumTrigger
Saturday, June 11
9 p.m. | $4, FREE before 10 p.m. | 21+
Starting with September 2010′s inaugural dance party, Discos Discos has quickly become one of Portland’s savviest vessels of global bass musics. Djs Zac Eno and Rumtrigger are introducing South and Central America’s Cumbia, Baile Funk, Champeta, Reggaeton, Guarachero and African styles such as Kwaito, Shangaan Electro, Soca, and Kuduro to Portland’s busiest and subsequently most diverse dance floors!
However, with new genres come new talents not only showcased by Rumtrigger and Eno, the monthly at Holocene has also introduced new VJ artists mainstays Trance Forever, and brought in the phenomenal electro band, Los Macuanos from Tijuana, Mexico (January). With a devout following already in tow, Discos Discos has moved to the weekend to expand its own culture as rapidly as the genre and world itself.
