🎂🎉Alley Cat turns 10. 🥳🎊

Saturday August 30, Alley Cat Music celebrates a decade of sound with our 10 Year Anniversary at 404.exe (Formerly MJQ), a space that’s watched Atlanta’s music culture evolve across generations.

Since our earliest nights in the alley in Auburn, to abandon schools, to West-end warehouses and rooftop sessions around the city, Alley Cat has championed a music-first approach, always prioritizing artistry and community over hype. Ten years strong, our focus remains on bringing timeless music experiences to Atlanta.

For this milestone event, we welcome a special guest who helped shape minimal house & techno into an art form. Detroit legend Daniel Bell’s deep, hypnotic sets and decades of innovation have influenced scenes worldwide. Alongside him are Alley Cat residents LÎMØD, Maria Serena, and PIRA—artists central to our sound—plus special guests TJ Coito from Bloom ATL and Andlė of Groove and Flavor, each bringing a unique perspective and expanded connection.

Nights like this show why places and people like these continue to matter for our city and for the music. 

*** This event is part of monthly POWER TRIP party every Last Saturday of the month at 404.exe

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POST-PONED

We are heartbroken to share that our dear friend and long-time member of the Atlanta dance music community, Miloš Stankovic, has passed away. 

Milos was more than a supporter of our scene—he was a true contributor. He welcomed us into his home for holidays, birthdays, and unforgettable after-parties. His unmistakablei smile and laughter will remain with us always. This loss cuts deeply for everyone who was privileged to call him a friend.

Because of this, we have made the difficult decision to cancel our event with Sonja Moonear this weekend. With Sonja’s full support, we believe now is a time to pause, grieve, and allow our community to heal. We are working with her agent on a new date, though it is likely her return will not be until 2026.

All tickets will automatically transfer to our 

10-Year Anniv. with Daniel Bell on August 30th.

no action is required. 

If you cannot attend that event, your ticket can be honored for any other Alley Cat Music event in 2025. Simply email us at info@alleycatmusicclub.com with your full name, and we will take care of it.

If you’re able, we kindly ask for your support by holding onto your ticket rather than requesting a refund. This will help us weather the impact and continue building the community Miloš cared so much about. Of course, if you cannot make another date, refunds will still be available.

We truly appreciate the loyalty and patience of our supporters through all the recent changes. We know there have been many. We remain committed to keeping the dream alive, and with your continued support, we will dance together again soon. - Alley Cat Team

OPEN AIR — VENUE UPDATE + EVENT INFO

Due to long-awaited renovations at our rooftop venue on Sweet Auburn, we’ve had to relocate the August 2nd event. Because of its historic status, the building required special permits that took nearly a year to secure, and work has only just begun. Construction is now underway and is expected to take 60 days, affecting both our August and September rooftop dates.

But the show goes on.

We’re excited to announce that the August 2nd event is moving to Block & Drum, a unique indoor/outdoor venue located in Chamblee–Brookhaven. This new space offers plenty of room to dance, vibe, and connect — same energy, just a new setting.

With rain chances ranging anywhere from 50% to 100%, we’ve made the call to move TONIGHT’S Rooftop event inside the historic Atrium at The Oddfellows Building — same location, just indoors.

Based on your feedback in our recent poll, we’re shifting the time to 8PM to 2AM to give everyone a little of what they wanted.

Please keep in mind: The Sweet Auburn Festival is still happening until 9PM and will impact parking. We highly recommend using rideshare services like Uber or Lyft.

A limited number of tickets will be available at the door, so come early to secure your spot.

See you TONIGHT on the dance floor!

Some say they miss the old Alley Cat. We hear you. Sometimes, to create a new path, you must retrace your footsteps.

Join us as we venture out on our own once again.

We can’t think of a better DJ to mark our return than @margaret.dygas. This will be her first appearance in Atlanta, and it’s our second time hosting a @perlonation artist in one of our favorite rooms in the city. The last time was with @thomas.franzmann.aka.zip and @dj_sammy_dee_official (and trust us, we can’t wait to have them back!).

The Westside Cultural Arts Center offers many unique spaces, and we’ve played them all. But the old dance studio upstairs? That space is pure perfection for an intimate music gathering. The industrial warehouse vibe, paired with the golden hour light streaming through the windows, creates a surreal and magical dance floor setting. For one night, we have the keys again to let our club rave fantasies run wild.

As the American techno legend @dvs1hush says:

“The sound system should be the headliner.”

That’s why we’re bringing in a 4-point sound system by @hsd_soundsystems, perfectly tuned to the room with pinpoint precision by our friend @jasonphillips1.

Doors close at 3 AM. The party goes until 4 AM.

Get your tickets now and be part of the revolution.

Margaret Dygas has carved out her place in the electronic music world as a master of minimalism and deep, textured grooves. 

As a core member of the Perlon family, Dygas’s releases on the label have become quintessential examples of understated, forward-thinking club music. Her productions, much like her DJ sets, thrive on the interplay of rhythm and space, drawing dancers into hypnotic journeys.

Her craft has taken her to some of the most revered venues worldwide. From the legendary Berghain/Panorama Bar in Berlin to London’s fabric, and regular appearances at Berlin staples like Club der Visionaere and Hoppetosse, Dygas is a fixture for those seeking refined, intricate soundscapes. In the U.S., she’s a regular at celebrated parties such as Resolute NYC, Un_Mute Miami, and Dialogue LA.

We are proud to bring her to Atlanta for her first appearance in our city. Whether behind the decks or in the studio, Dygas is a storyteller of the highest order, crafting sonic narratives that resonate far beyond the dancefloor.

From 10 PM until 3 AM, the dancefloor awakens, driven by the sounds of House and Techno from both crews’ selectors: Tocayo, Bobi Stevkovski, Jeremy Ismael, David Boreal, Ysesho_, and Frankenoz.

A night for connection, celebration, and movement—under shimmering lights and beats that cut through the winter chill. Tickets are just $20 and available now at alleycatmusicclub.com.
