T- Reverie's opening set at Bad Idea on January 14, 2023. Perhaps the most lively opening set Bad Idea's seen yet. Fresh off the plane from visiting their home in Brazil, T- Reverie brought the party with them back to Seattle.

@calicosea's closing set from our February Bad Idea perfectly encapsulated everything this party is about: pure joy & energy while playing with music. From breaks to jersey club to baile funk to amapiano & more (as well as debuts of tracks from himself & @djwifiworld). Press play and relive the moments.

CANCER TEARS 🦀💧 are thicker than blood 🩸 Your favorite Crabby Bratties @cousin_chris & Toya B (@user-303583155) brought the heat to Bad Idea on Feb 11. The brother/sister chemistry between these two & the way they get silly playing music together really shined throughout their entire set. Press play & treat yourself to 57 minutes of fun.

Perhaps the funkiest set performed at Bad Idea yet! Our friends @wsuptiger & @someonesomeone came down from Vancouver, BC Canada to open things up at the Bad Idea One Year Anniversary. No wasted breath, no wasted movements, no wasted time- they hopped right into it and got the funk pumpin.

Thank you to our friends up North for being part of our Bad Idea PNW family! <3

Was an honor to have DJ SUSH (@sushen-t) open up the dance floor at Bad Idea on July 8 with an ultra soulful, delectably groovy House set! For a full hour no feet were still, no backs were on the wall, everything was left on the dance floor. Tap in and groove.

Live recording from our first Seattle show of 2024. We took over Cherry for the first time and Seattle showed OUT! High energy set from Calico (@calicosea) here, who blended breaks, drill, UKG, Jersey Club, and more to a raucous dance floor (shoutout to our host Tracey Wong and Go-Go dancer P Nasty for getting the crowd HYPE).

TAP IN!

The number of times @korrathekid brought in a new track and we stopped in our tracks to go, "What the hell is THIS??" is too many to count. Korra's set at Bad Idea on March 16 was absolutely nutty- thank god we recorded it 

Dive in for an hour of hyper-energetic, wildly diverse, and sinister-ly inspired Bad Ideas from Korra The Kid

Had the absolute pleasure of hosting Nina Las Vegas (@ninalasvegas) in Seattle on April 19 to celebrate our 2 Year Anniversary. She served up her own flavor of global club music selections and presented it as an expert DJ who has clearly put in her 10,000 hours!

Much love to Nina and the rest of the DJs who held it down and helped us celebrate. Orbitron on the mic and P Nasty gettin freaky on the stage and in the crowd! 2 Years down, a hundred to go!
