You'll find plenty to entertain you in the electronic-music world this weekend, including a bass fix from Seven tonight and deep house from L.A.-based Marques Wyatt, dance-heavy tunes from Chris Lake tomorrow night, and much more. Page down to see what's filling up this weekend's Dance Card.

Beta's headliner tonight is London's Seven, who'll be dropping bass-heavy beats along with Dayquil and Coult 45 on the main floor. In the Beatport Lounge, you can catch Time for Trees and Revy as part of P.U.N.C.H.I.S., spinning techno and tech house for your listening pleasure. (9 p.m., 18+, $10)

Bar Standard hosts Marques Wyatt tonight; the L.A.-based deep house impresario has played alongside Mark Farina, Frankie Knuckles and many others, so this is definitely where the house party's at tonight. (9 p.m., 21+)

The Remix Artist Collective will hold down the Larimer Lounge tonight, with London Dungeon, Ginger Perry and Mike Deez, who will be altering and combining tracks on the fly. Stellar. (9 p.m., 21+, $16)
