Fulcrum Gallery hosts another first Friday party full of hypnotic grooves and righteous visuals, this time wooing trip-hop geniuses The New Law from Seattle. Adam Straney and Justin Neff will create a simmering soundscape of throbbing drum machines, surreal sax, samples, and soaring synths far too ballsy to be relegated to background music. It will hit you like a drug you've never tried - blissfully hallucinatory in feel and staggeringly vivid in imagery.

[Fulcrum Gallery, with DJs BROAM and Big Chuck 9 p.m.-2 a.m., 21+, $5 benefiting the gallery, 1308 Martin Luther king Jr. Way, Tacoma, 253.250.0520]
