the week in Dance w/ David Bruno (10/17/07) (part 1)

Digitalism @ Studio B, NYC (CRED)
Digitalism @ Studio B

Lots of moaning going on about CMJ this year, but you can't deny that DANCE is a big factor in this years' Marathon.

Big official CMJ shows with Simian Mobile Disco, New Young Pony Club (Tickets), MSTRKRFT (Tickets), and Justice (along with this little column here) leave no doubt that this past year has been a big year for DJs and bands with a beat.

Last week some dance acts got off to an early start on Thursday night: Digitalism played Studio B and set the place on fire (or at least attracted the FDNY), !!! punk-funked Webster Hall (more photos), and Moby DJ'd at Hiro. Photos of Moby at Driven by Boredom. James Murphy and Annie Mac DJ'd at Hiro BAllroom last night.

Outside of the big CMJ shows be sure to catch (in no particular order) one of the Black Ghosts sets at the BV party or at the Delancey (I hear Simon will be singing while they DJ their tracks), A-Trak and DJ Medhi tag-teaming at Hiro on Wednesday (tonight) should be legendary, Erol Alkan dropping rock tracks for the ravers at the 3rd Fixed Anniversary at Studio B on Saturday with special guests, MIA gives you two chances to catch her at Terminal 5, James Lavelle brings UNKLE to Webster on Thursday, David E. Sugar, King Oppression, and Walter Meego at our show at 205 on Saturday night, and Muscles plays both Modular parties (Studio B with NYPC and 200 Orchard on Friday). Also tonight: Dragonette at the Canal Room and the boys and girls from Big Stereo finally touch down in NYC at Studio B with Thunderheist. Ghostland Observatory brought a laser to their last show at the Bowery, find out what they bring to Webster on Friday night.

Don't forget to RSVP For our Saturday night party. More about that later (coming in part 2).

FOOLS GOLD HIGHLIGHTS

-kid sister telling a random
groupie chick to back off the stage
while she continued to kill it

-a-trak and dh mehdi going back
and forth, was nasty!!

-kavinsky OWNED!!!

...it was beyond packed, but the crowd thinned out
as the dance party ensued
...if i am not mistaken, dj craze was in the crowd, as well as trackademiks, travis of gym class heroes, and roxy cottontail

a great night, considering i bugged out on red bull and vodka, fell asleep on the A train, got home at 5am, and made it to work by 830am...
HOLLER!!!!!

ps cool kids was pretty dope

Some photos @ the link. Video to follow.
Not sure if I got video of Kid Sister telling that stupid girl to get off the stage, but that was priceless. Before the set, the girl, who was chatting with Kavinsky on the side, got on the mic and told the crowd they were "lucky," as this was a short tour. Needless to say, the crowd was not receptive!
