RPS presents a night of dancing and drawing!

On Friday, July 31 the walls, floors, ceilings, stairs, nooks and crannies of RPS’s gallery space will be covered in paper for your drawing pleasure. DJ Razvan, a member of Black Market Techno, will be spinning tunes while we cover every white space in with marker. You are invited to come and draw and then dance, to dance and then draw, or to do both at the same time! The artwork will remain displayed in RPS the next day.

Admission is $1-10 donation sliding scale if you’d just like to come and draw and dance, and $5-$15 if you’d like to draw, dance and then take home a piece of the artwork after the weekend. (Donations will cover the cost of markers, paper and DJ and everything else will go to benefit RPS.) Washable markers will be provided or you can bring your own. Help us turn a blank room in to a work of art while dancing!



Razvan was born in Bucharest , Romania but grew up halfway between Detroit and Chicago in Grand Rapids, MI. A DJ since early 2004, Razvan began spinning deep, dark, after-hours friendly minimal techno and moved to the Bay Area in 2006. Soon he began collaborating on various underground parties and in 2007 launched Black Market Techno, a monthly party at Oasis in Oakland with friends dCOY, IXD and Farzana. After a year and a half of successful parties at Oasis with out of town guests like (Todd Sines (Planet E, NYC), Rich Korach (Paxahau, Detroit) Eric Johnston (Esperanza Detroit), Brian Kage , Luke Hess (Berretta, Detroit), Sassmouth (NBFC Chicago) and local guests (Alland Byallo [kontrol], Limaçon (Poker Flat), Dave Aju (Circus Company), Clint Stewart (Auralism), Monty Luke (Mothership) and Christian Martin (Dirtybird) Razvan took a short hiatus from promoting to focus on djing and exploring new music. Recently, his musical tastes took him in a housier, more dance floor friendly direction, while retaining his preference for deep, interesting melodies and heavy baselines.
