The SF Mixtape Society is dedicated to the long-lost '80s ritual of creating a mixtape. When founders Annie Lin and John Verrochi arrived here from Williamsburg, Brooklyn, they missed their neighborhood mixtape swaps and decided to create their own "secret santa + mixtape" party. Today's theme is "Under the Covers" so take your finger off the genius button and start practicing your fade-ins. If you want to take the prize for best mix, pre-submit your entry, but be warned: the competition is fierce. One of Lin's past playlists was a historical evolution of the song "Can't Help Falling in Love," and included renditions of the original French ballad and UB40's version. The event is designed for the digital age — well-curated playlists on CDs or flash drives are accepted — but cassette tape (complete with handmade album artwork) are preferred. Just remember to be kind and rewind.

SF Mixtape Society says…

Announcing a Valentine's Day week make-out party at, appropriately enough, The Make-out Room. As always, open to all and free of charge. Mixtape not required for admission, but you can only take home someone else's mixtape if you bring a mixtape of your own.
