Return, Every First Saturday

The fog remembers what the daylight forgets,
a room where the shadows still keep their depth.
Since '84 the fangs have gleamed,
a cave built quiet from a Wednesday dream.

Come as you were, or come as you are,
the bats don't care how you got this far.
Old records spin beside the new,
the dark makes room enough for two.

Every first Saturday, the door stays open wide,
The Wych remembers what the city tried to hide.

The Story Behind BatCave North

BatCave North didn't start as a concept, it started on a dance floor.

My very first DJ set was at Club Zambukie, an underground Toronto venue that opened its doors over Victoria Day weekend in May 1984. I played from 8pm Sunday straight through to noon the next day, a full marathon set, and that night became the beginning of everything. Zambukie was one of the venues that helped launch Toronto's post-punk, new wave, and early gothic-rock scene, spinning import vinyl sourced from shops like the Record Peddler, and I was lucky enough to be part of that from the very start.

From there I carried that sound and that scene through clubs like Twilight Zone, Klub Domino, and Catwalk, always chasing that same underground energy. BatCave North grew directly out of that vibe, a theme night born from the same music and the same crowd that first pulled me into DJing over 40 years ago.

There's something fitting about where BatCave North lives now. The Wych has that same raw, underground feeling Zambukie had back in 1984, and stepping into it feels less like starting something new and more like coming back to where it all began.

Toronto's goth scene is very much alive today, with a great community of DJs and events keeping it thriving. BatCave North is simply my contribution to that, my own personal style shaped by 42 years behind the decks, bringing together the old classics that started it all with newer tracks that keep the sound moving forward.

Join us at The Wych, and come be part of the night.

In-Joy 🦇
