This electro-funk duo from Montreal was formed in 2002 by musicians David 'Dave 1' Macklovitch and Patrick 'P-Thugg' Gemayel. With a sound that draws from blue-eyed soul, dance music, rock, synth-pop, disco and funk, many of the duo's songs have become dance floor favorites. Later this month, they'll land in Shanghai for a show filled with groovy synth tones, vintage drum machines and good vibes.
Jan 25, 10pm, RMB180 pre-sale, RMB240 door. Arkham, see event listing, buy tickets.
