Destro187

30 listings in 7 named rooms, over the last three years

Alex Shtaerman (aka Destro 187) came of age while traversing NYC’s infamous underground party scene through the 1990’s. Today, as a DJ for nearly 25 years, Destro favors the sounds of Hard Techno, Ghettotek, Chicago Hard House and the melodic elements found in Trance and Progressive House. As part of The Usual Suspects DJ collective, Destro co-hosted TNL (a well-received Techno & House Music online show) for close to three years. Destro’s recently released tracks on AXA Lab Music, Techno Parade Music and Hard Electronic, with additional releases in the works.

Their rooms

One tick a night, on the one axis this page has — Aug 2023, where the listings start, to Jan 2027, the last night anybody has announced. The shaded end has not happened yet.

Aug 2023Jan 2027

Once each: The Sultan Room, The Woodshop, The Keep, The End and Dolso's. Ten of the 30 listings never named a room, and are not counted as one.

Who they play with

Counted from the bills themselves, over bills of twelve names or fewer. A pair's count includes a night that is announced and not yet played; where there is one, the row says when.
