Denis Sulta: All Night Long | Fri 9 Mar | Boxxed | Sold Out
Home-grown Glaswegian selector turned international techno talent Denis Sulta likes to have fun. You can tell that from watching him DJ, bleach-blond locks bouncing as he dances to a mix of self-penned disco bangers and obscurer cuts alike. Sulta is a real showman, but make no mistake: this man is a master selector who knows how to mix as much as he knows how to get a crowd moving. At this event hosted by Percolate, he’ll be taking clubbers on a seven-hour journey through the covers of his extensive record collection. See our feature here. www.residentadvisor.net 

New Street Records: Power | Thu 8 Mar | Night Owl | £5
In celebration of International Women’s Day, the University of Birmingham’s very own record label presents a night of live music and DJ sets. Music of the live variety will be provided by female-fronted indie pop four-piece DAME, who are down to deliver their distinctive blend of powerful vocals, earworm melodies and ethereal instrumentation. Self-taught selectors Y4S and Hadler will also be at the decks laying down the dancey vibes, covering a range of styles from house and techno to disco and funk. Smashing the patriarchy never sounded so good. www.skiddle.com

Tekno Disco: Mella Dee | Fri 9 Mar | Lab11 | £8
Tekno Disco is back, DJ Mag’s newly crowned ‘Best Breakthrough Label’, whose signature disco-infused techno sound has been making waves here in Birmingham. Headline act Mella Dee is perhaps the perfect example of what it means to be techno disco – not least because his biggest song is titled ‘Techno Disco Tool’. Taking inspiration from the likes of Bicep and Floorplan, Mella Dee’s music is experimental, genre-hopping stuff, and the three-hour slot TD have given him is more than enough time to show off the full breadth of his influences. www.skiddle.com

House of God’s 25th Birthday | Fri 9 Mar | Tunnel Club | £15.50
Abrasive, industrial, uncompromising – House of God’s quarter-century celebration marks 25 years of the rawest techno to be found in the second city. HOG has traditionally eschewed big-name line-ups, preferring to keep faith with their trusted resident DJs, but this time they’ve made an exception: to mark this special occasion, long-time HOG affiliate James Ruskin has been invited to put his own inimitable spin on the brand’s anarchic sound. This one is for the true hardcore ravers out there: if you can’t handle the heat, you’d better get off the dance floor. www.theticketsellers.co.uk
