Red Square began filling up the moment the doors opened, with people from all over the Northeast<\/a> eager to see the legend that is Russ Davies (Cinnamon Chasers).<\/strong>\u00a0The night began with a bang as DJ duo PartyHorn<\/strong> took the front stage at Red Square<\/a> spinning some classic disco remixes. The vocal samples were perfectly entwined with the light and whimsical beats these guys pumped out. Halfway through their set they busted out a fun rendition of Tina Turner\u2019s \u201cWhat\u2019s Love Got to Do With It?\u201d and the crowd couldn\u2019t get enough. Partyhorn played in between every band to keep the energy high throughout the night.<\/p>\n

Organik Time Machine<\/strong> took the stage back with a funky blend of jamtronic beats with the\u00a0accompaniment\u00a0of a female singer. It is very rare to see a female singer heading a band, especially for more that just a few vocal samples. It was definitely refreshing to see something different done so well. Each song created its own energy and\u00a0permeated\u00a0throughout the Red Square. The light show these guys brought with them was absolutely phenomenal and only further bettered their already amazing set. From the front of the bar I heard the opening chords to the Sound Tribe Sector 9<\/strong> song, \u201cRamone and Emiglio.\u201d I can honestly say this is the first time in my life I have ever seen a band cover a STS9 song and I was pleasantly surprised to see them do it so well. Then it was Digital Dharma\u2019s<\/strong> time to shine. I was greatly impressed by how far these guys have come since the last time I had seen them live. The amount of energy and passion these boys pour into their music is evident the moment they take stage. Steve Mink tore up the heavy bass lines while Jess Radosti threw out some guitar riffs that were\u00a0reminiscent\u00a0to that of Jon Barber from The Disco Biscuits.<\/strong>\u00a0Elliot Kershner used the synth as a vehicle to carry each song and jam to further and further depths. It was seriously flooring to see how far these boys have come since they first took stage two years ago.<\/p>\n

At this point in the night Red Square was packed wall to wall and the excitement was eminent as Cinnamon Chasers<\/strong> got ready to take stage. Cinnamon Chasers is a side project of Abakus\u2019<\/strong> Russ Davies (son of legendary Dave Davies<\/strong> of The Kinks)<\/strong> infusing electronic and disco to make a master mix for a serious dance party. Cinnamon Chasers played well into the early hours of the morning with the high energy crowd doing their best to keep up. Some of the samples and remixes included Bill Withers’ \u201cA Lovely Day\u201d and The Clash\u2019s \u201cRock the Casbah.\u201d He also pulled out many song from his album Dreams and Machines,\u00a0<\/em>including “Flash gun,” “Hyper waves” and “Have I Said Something” . The entire set was filled with an outrageous amount of energy from both Davies and the crowd. For the encore he played “Night Walker” and “Diametric.” I left Red Square almost delusional from the exhaustion of dancing for five hours straight but needless to say, completely content. Truly an amazing show by all artists involved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
