GANG GANG DANCE (US)

Friday 03.07.09 - 23:00 - Pavilion

The genre barriers are continuously challenged in modern music. A great example is Gang Gang Dance. They mix electronic sounds of the city – house, grime hip hop, you name it… – with minimalistic avant-garde and all sorts of distant aromas from the third world.

And they also know how to write great melodies. The songs are often tossed into a hurricane of strange effects and syncopated percussion. Yet, here and there in the smoky world music laboratory, you can glimpse a pop band ready for the charts.

Gang Gang Dance set the bar high for the rest of the music scene. At the same time, they impressingly manage to deliver the complexity of music live so that you catch all of the edges, knots and the countless corners of the world.
