ST. VITUS DANCE CLUB: Starring MICHELE WYLEN, DOWNCASTE, GEJIUS, and more TBA.
St. Vitus Dance Club is a place for movers, both of the amateur and semi-professional divisions. Cutting-edge club music and atmosphere, intermingled with specially-created performances that blur the line between the dancefloor and the dance stage.
This week sees a run-off for electroclash president between newcomer Michele Wylen, who just played her first-ever live show opening for Ladytron (!); and Downcaste, who sound like a cross between Adult and a couple of crazy kids. And of course, we have the valedictorian, a young genius named Gejius who might be accused of playing IDM by the girl from Minneapolis who came in here the other day hustling for a gig. But he's far too soulful and inspired for any particular genre label, using his laptop like a saxophone satellite dish tuned to the jump jazz of another star. Prance, girls.
Downcaste use elecronic music to hybrid elementsfrom many sounds in the trip hop, downtempo, and electro genres. using vocals and raw beats they are a performance to behold.
