Mirror Shades: Heartbeat Edition

February 16, 2012, 9:30 pm

21+ 9-2 NO COVER

The Feel for Heartbeat Edition:

House Parties where you’re going after the girl of your dreams. But also, you have a score to settle with her jerk of a boyfriend.

To calling out sick and hanging with your girl and your best friend all day.

To make fun of the virgin of the group, only to have him get laid in hilarious fashion.

To closing down a museum and walking hand in hand with the girl of your dreams.

To the popular jock, the school diva, the rebel, the geek, the misfit, the new kid, and the average girl/boy.

The Sound:

A Time Machine of synth heavy melodies. 80′s style Electro, Italo-disco to 90′s DANCE. 80s soundtracks, Progressive house and melodic Synth pop.

Example Artists You Will Hear:
Kavinsky
Daft Punk
Com Truise
Valerie
Madonna
New Order

:: Kurt Sloan ::

After avenging his brother by defeating Thai kickboxing champion Tong Po, Kurt Sloan dissapeared into the sunset. Rumors started to circulate that Kurt had actually been killed by Tong Po’s mobsters.

It turns out that Kurt Sloan went back to the mountains to perfect his craft. He would study by day and come out only at night. His haunts were the discotecs, arcades, punk rock joints, beach side bars and gang ridden streets. It was there that he honed his craft: a potent mix of italo disco, synth pop, nu-disco, freestyle, street jams, detroit techno and other synth driven gems. Now, Kurt Sloan is donning mirrorshades and bringing it all to the dancefloor.
