A surreal live-music-driven dance party. Dirty electronics and live musicians (horns, drums, human beat box), regurgitating old genres like early ska, early hip-hop, techno and house and playing it raw, glitchy and original. With: experimental circus composer Sxip Shirey (backed by Raya Brass Band rhythm section & trumpet), handmade contraption orchestra Electric Junkyard Gamelan, international rhythm wrangler DJ Barney Iller. Janky visuals by Sebastian Patane Masuelli. Live custom silkscreen prints by Printaholics Crew - bring fabric items to print (clothing, bags, etc).
I haven't been to one of these Brooklyn-style warehouse/loft ragers in quite some time. And something about the phrase "handmade contraption orchestra" warms the cockles of my soul. Join me, won't you?
