Five Body Sword @ Balanca’s, Friday 3/19

Filed under: kansas city,music,shows,upcoming — admin @ 9:54 am

Yep, that’s me.

I’ll be playing in the Pyro Room @ Balanca’s alongside a few other djs ranging from breaks to house.  I’m scheduled to go on around 1:30 AM and close out the night.

I’m really looking forward to this night and am appreciative of the Galactic Soul Tribe, and specifically Ben Stutter, for inviting me.  I’d never have pictured Ben as a speed garage guy when I first met him about 15 years ago, but here we are and it’s great to see the genre getting some dancefloor love.

My goal is to blow minds and work behinds, and I think the later time slot is perfect for this.  I’ve always associated my selecting as more of a late night/early morning experience which, unfortunately, is often hard to find in non-warehouse party environments since most venues close up at 3am here in Kansas City.

This of course means everyone in the place is probably going to be slicked up and feelin’ it after what I’m sure will be great sets from the preceding djs, so I’m very excited about playing some challenging tunes while keeping it funky.

I know the Third Fridays crowd is usually up for some crazy music, too, which is actually a little bit intimidating!  Some of the sets from past installments have literally left me in awe at how abstract and intense the beat structures become in the mix, and yet the dancefloor had no problem loving it.  With past acts ranging from happy hardcore to live performances of “glitch crunk” and the like, I’m going to have to be on my toes to keep the crowd interested.
