This, our first installment of huMP3 day, we have a lot to offer, as this weekend in Chongqing has something, seemingly, for everyone. 
On Friday night at Nuts Club is Underground Hip-Hop vol.2, hosted by local MC PDP(aka J.L.Sean).  I don't know much about the artists, but I do know this about hip-hop, if its bad, its better that you don't understand the lyrics.  Keeping that in mind makes our first mp3 all the more tolerable.

Also on Friday night across town, CiCi Park is having a "german techno" party with Pacou, a real life german DJ.  Its been a while since CiCi has hosted any parties, so the rave kids should be out in full force for this one.

Keeping the DJ/dance theme alive on Saturday night are Chengdu based duo Just Charlie and Jovian a.k.a. the Disco Death DJs, bringing their eclectic mix dub-step, drum & bass, glitch, and ghetto house to Baroque Bar.  Being the only act of the weekend I can vouch for, I highly recommend checking 'em out... that is if you can find Baroque Bar.
