It's been more than a few days but hold on, i made it worth your wait. Nu Ravers on the Block First year anniversary party pictures and comments are here. For me the surprise stand out act was the one act that i had never heard of and neglected to investigate prior to the show. Hearts Revolution consists of a dude named Ben mixing, on keys and doing backup vocals and a chick named Lo doing the main vocals.
Any act that takes a somewhat a pseudo live approach to a genre which predominantly features DJs mixing and not much else, is taking somewhat of a risk. - Think Chromeo - think Crystal Castles - think Pase Rock - Hearts Revolution seriously pulled it off. Unfortunately Lo's mic was way too long to be able to hear the vocals properly. In fact, when they first started playing it wasn't working at all and the music had to stop for about 5 mins; needles to say there were alot of confused drunk people shouting unhelpful suggestions.
Look out for these guys in the future, they show alot of potential.
Nu Ravers did their thing and delivered their consistent danceable tunes without too many surprises. Things didn't get too crazy until after their set, when Felix Cartal from Vancouver started spinning and the Nu Ravers loosened up.
I cropped some ugly people out of this picture, i felt kind of bad while i was doing it but now i'm glad i did.
Needless to say, people were crunking.So crunking, in fact, that shortly after as this picture was taken this dude poured vodka in a chicks eye; her response? Fall on the floor and yell "Fuck my eye!"
Many of the details surrounding this photo remain unclear.
And we'd like to keep it that way.
If anyone thinks of a snarky comment for this one then email me.
