Wednesday Happenings

Toronto-based electrohipsters MSTRKRFT have remixed everybody from E-40 to Annie, adding a balls-out techno squall to any danceable rhythm. Or, in clothing terms, it can taper the fattest jeans until they only fit an art school student. Performing live on synthesizers and turntables. The Roxy, 279 Tremont St., 9 p.m. $20. More information.

Wine

Bostonist is a rosé wine fiend; just ask our long-suffering domestic partners. Rosé gets a bad rap in the United States, thanks to "white Zinfandel" and other blush wines, but rosé is the real deal—a wine that Europeans have been enjoying for millennia. Unlike blush wine, rosé is not a blend or red and white wines, but, rather, a dry and fruity summertime beverage made in a single batch. It may not look like summer today, but that doesn't meant that you shouldn't prepare for the season's eventual arrival by checking out the Second Glass's Crash Course Wine Seminar "Rosé: Just Drink It!" Downtown Wine and Spirits, 225 Elm St., Somerville, 7 p.m. $10. More information.

Sake

There is so much more to sake than Gekkeikan. Learn the basics of sake and a little bit about its many varieties tonight, if you can make the trek to West Roxbury. Blanchard's Wine & Spirits, 418 LaGrange St., West Roxbury, 7 p.m. $12.

The Pride of Boston

Tonight is the final round of the second annual Boston Pride Idol competition, which means that it's your last chance to vote on Boston's next homegrown diva. Presented by Boston Pride as a part of Pride Week. Club Cafe, 209 Columbus Ave., 7 p.m. Free.

Your Finances

Are you interested in the newfangled "common security clubs," that promote financial diversification among small communities? It's a tough time for everybody, not just Globe employees, and you can learn the basics of sticking together to make the most of it tonight in JP. Sponsored by the Jamaica Plain Forum. First Church in Jamaica Plain, 6 Eliot St., Jamaica Plain, 7:30 p.m. Free. More information.
