An Influential DJ and promoter since before he was legally allowed to enter clubs, Victor Rodriguez has been a part of building the LA club scene since the late 80’s and early 90’s through his association with such clubs as White Chocolate, Plastic Passion, and Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride. In the late 90's he teamed up with Billy Erb in bringing the legendary NYC party "Beige" to Los Angeles. It was a huge success that lasted 11 years and set a new standard in LA nightlife.
Through his collaboration with DJ Chris Bowen in 2008 under the Critter Control collective, they helped established a re-birth of downtown queer club culture with their party "Shits & Giggles”, and later with Cub Scout and and their current incarnation; Bears in Space. They regularly showcase such talents as DJ Harvey, Eric Duncun, Lovefingers & Heidi Lawden, Justin Van Der Vluegan, Andy Butler, Pat Mahoney, Horse Meat Disco, Daniel Wang, Tim Sweeney, Honcho, Optimo, Honey Sound System, Discodromo, among many others. The parties have received wide critical success and they have taken Bears in Space to other cities such as Palm Springs, P-town, Vancouver and every other month in Mexico City. Victor Rodriguez has been collecting records since he was 7 with a collection well past 15 000. He has recently shared billing with the likes of Lauer, Zombies in Miami, Intergalictic Gary, Hugo Capablanca, Jennifer Cardini and Carry Nation, playing across Europe, Canada, Mexico, Colombia and the US. His current monthly residences include, Cub Scout, Bears in Space, Bears in Space CDMX, Discoteca at The Ace Hotel DTLA, and Palm Springs.
His private clients events have included such personalities as Elton John, Anna Wintour, Madonna, Donatella Versace, and once had Grace Jones request a private after-hours set for her and her entourage. And then there was the time he shared the decks with Prince…..
His versatility and ability to set mood with his wide collection of disco, house, soul, and rare vinyl only releases has proved his ability to remain relevant in our ever-changing climate.

JIMMY DePRE
Philadelphia native Jimmy DePre began his professional DJ career in 2002 at the age of 15 landing a job with iconic radio personality and DJ, Jerry Blavat. In 2009, he began his 10 year Friday & Saturday residency at Tavern on Camac, which in 2017 was voted “Best Dance Spot” by Philadelphia Magazine. During this time, gig highlights include a residency at Bobby Viteritti’s Classics Never Die and Shep Pettibone’s summer poolside Tea Dances in Asbury Park. Committed to respecting the history and importance of the queer contribution to dance music, one of Jimmy’s biggest honors was being asked to play the weekend-long Fire Island celebration marking the 50 year inception of Tea Dance alongside Robbie Leslie, Max Rodriquez & Randy Bettis. Always curious about San Francisco, Jimmy visited in 2014 and fell in love. He played his first guest spot at Go BANG! in 2015 and quickly began traveling more and more frequently to the Bay Area. After guesting at various venues during his visits, Jimmy decided to move to Oakland in 2018. His knowledge, drive and unique style quickly led him to becoming a resident at Go BANG! He’s since played, both solo and with his partner Jeremy Rosebrook, at parties put on by David Harness, Comfort & Joy, Big Muscle, Polyglamorous and Electroluxx, just to name a few. As Jimmy embarks on his 19th year of sharing music, he’s excited to continue to share his passion of past, present and future with the dance floor.
