Hometown Sounds

Upstart U Street dance hall Tropicalia is giving the established champ U Street Music Hall a run for its money with booking exciting talent. Tonight they partner with local electronic label Future Times to host Sal P, legendary member of NYC post-punk act Liquid Liquid. Unnamed Future Times DJs warm up the room, and it’s a good bed one of them will be Maxmillion Dunbar aka Andrew Field-Pickering, one half of the duo Beautiful Swimmers, head of Future Times and a well-established electronic musician with two full length albums and a handful of strong singles. Max D drops a brand new album House of Woo on the RVNG Intl. label on February 19th, and just today released the first music video from it, for Loving the Drift. This is a great first taste of what’s sure to be a fine night of out-there beats at Tropicalia.
