There are tons of options for big weekend plans all summer long, but sometimes a night of drinking and dancing with your friends sounds better than anything after a long week. To make things easy for you, we've compiled this weekend's special DJ dance parties for hiphop lovers (like Haute Sauce), early-aughts nostalgics (like Britney Spears vs. the World), and David Byrne fanatics (like Stop Making Sense: A Talking Heads Celebration) alike. You'll also find fun drinking opportunities, like Aslan/Chuck's Juice Box Hero Can Release and Motley Zoo Animal Rescue's Happy Hour: Drunk In Puppy Love. See them all below, and find even more options (including recurring nights like Viva Havana on Friday, Dance Yourself Clean on Saturday, and the World's Tiniest Tea Dance on Sunday) on our DJ calendar.

Neon Indian (DJ Set), Cuff Lynx, Zoolab
Neon Indian’s glossy yet smeared chillgaze pop enjoyed a vogue in that 2009-2011 phase when American youth thirsted mightily for beach-friendly tunes that oozed out of speakers slightly out of focus and winsomely wispy around the edges. Masterminded by Alan Palomo, Neon Indian’s Psychic Chasms and to a lesser degree Era Extraña embodied that hazy, lazily danceable mode better than most in the crowded field. A recent-ish single, “Annie,” sounds like mid-’80s Scritti Politti on a Caribbean holiday and the lead track (“Slumlord”) from Neon Indian’s last album titled VEGA INTL. Night School is also vaguely tropical and funky, with Palomo’s voice to the fore and clearer than usual, because that’s how indie auteurs get more popular. I’ve been wrong in these matters before, but “Slumlord” sounds like a potential nocturnal summer boat party anthem that might even go BOOM on radio. DAVE SEGAL
