REAL BAD SOUND
Since 1989, REAL BAD has been bringing new and unique sounds to the San Francisco dance floor, year after year. We strive to craft a beautiful musical journey for our guests each year, offering a 3 part experience, starting with a joyous t-dance, moving into sexy, late night beats, and culminating in refreshing morning music. This special journey is our unique sound, and each year we bring in a DJ new to the San Francisco scene to give you their local take on that unique journey.
DJ PHILIP GRASSO (SAN FRANCISCO)
RECOVERY 2015, 2016, 2017
Philip Grasso's signature style of funky house and driving tech house creates a unique dance floor experience that’s full of non-stop energy. Philip’s curated sound has landed him gigs at notable events including REAL BAD presents RECOVERY, Folsom Street Events’ Bay of Pigs, and Matinée NY Pride. When not home in San Francisco at his residences (Lookout and Halcyon), he's spinning across North America from NYC to Seattle and LA to Vancouver.
DJ AMY ALDERMAN (VIRGINIA)
REACH 2015
Hailing from Richmond, Virginia, DJ Amy Alderman offers a joyous, energetic, loving t-dance style that brings the heart and soul to dance floor.
JESUS PELAYO (MADRID, SPAIN)
REAL BAD XXVII (MAIN ROOM)
Jesus defines himself more as a musician than a DJ, although he has been DJing for friends in small and medium size parties for as long as he can remember. His experience spinning for large crowds has been enriched playing every year since 2011 on a float during Madrid Gay Pride parade, an event attended by hundreds of thousands of visitors. Most relevant club gigs outside Spain include DJing for PAPA Party in NYC. He maintains no residences so that each gig is prepared meticulously. The outcome: custom-made sets and an excited audience.

BRIAN MAIER (SAN FRANCISCO)
REAL BAD XXVII (UNDERGROUND)
Brian Maier, San Francisco’s own, will offer an alternative dance floor with music in the Underground. The soundscapes Brian creates typically blend old-style disco with present-day techno, and of course present some modern day vocals to get audiences engaged and enthralled. A mixture of instantly recognizable beats and melodies is often amplified by mixes and cuts which are re-crafted.
