About Out of Order

Out of Order is a new monthly aimed at bringing a funbalanced dance floor to Chicago’s refracted nightlife. With live performances and DJ sets combining to rock parties as a whole, co-promoters Sangwerks and Paul in Chicago prove that the party is greater than the sum of its parts. Citing inspiration from the legendary Hacienda nightclub in Manchester, UK—the onetime home of New Order and Factory Records—promoters Sang Yi (Sangwerks) and Paul Rodriguez (Paul in Chicago, Dark Wave Disco) are hoping to draw upon the same spirit of fun-loving yet musically adventurous nights.

“The Hacienda was ahead of its time and stemmed from a pure love of music. It is in this spirit that Out of Order looks to make a name for itself,” explains Rodriguez.

Out of Order will also feature resident DJs Intel and Trancid—two cornerstones of Chicago’s nightlife, with the chops to cover all the musical bases.

Catch Out of Order on 1st Thursdays of the month at Darkroom 2210 W. Chicago, IL 60622.
