Another day, another confusing new genre of electronic music! I asked local DJ Jizosh, who’s a co-organizer of the new “juke/B-more/electro” monthly “Serious Business,” just what exactly that means.

“Juke (Chicago), Jit (Detroit), Wu-Tang (Baltimore)…they’re all urban dance styles that put emphasis on footwork,” he explained. “The common thread between them is bass-heavy club music at 140-plus bpm, and that’s a big part of what this night is about. Chicago ghetto house, Detroit ghetto-tech, Miami bass, Baltimore club…we’re going to play all of that, alongside French house, disco, hip-hop, and soul.”

And how have Seattleites responded to these genres in the past, at parties such as Bootylib (held in the room that’s now the Cha-Cha, where people don’t really get down)?

“Club music can be somewhat polarizing, in my experience. It’s one of those things people love in small doses. Our aim is to inject as much variety into this night as possible, without it becoming a total gong show.”

And the DJs? They’ll be Slugo, from the Southside of Chicago, and Vancouver’s U-Tern. Still not sold? Jizosh suggests prepping with U-Tern’s “One Day Later” podcast on BrooklynRadio.net. Lo_Fi Performance Gallery, 429 Eastlake Ave. E., 254-2824. $10. 10 p.m. RACHEL SHIMP
