Indie Shows in Buckman

[BOO’D UP] THA RNB NITE (90s • 00s • 10s • Current) Dim the lights, let the bassline kiss your skin, and lose yourself in the slow, seductive grind of the night. This is where smooth R&B takes over — the kind that makes bodies move closer, hips sway a little slower, and the temperature rise with every sultry melody. From timeless slow jams that set hearts racing to silky current hits that beg you to get boo’d up, this is the ultimate night for intimate vibes, heated two-steps, and pure sensual energy on the dance floor. Good vibes and even better chemistry only.

Soft as Snow is the Berlin-based, Norwegian duo of Oda Starheim and Øystein Monsen. With rough sampling, slippery rhythms and noisy textures, their raw electronic productions are accompanied by Oda’s shapeshifting voice creating a warped-yet-warm physicality. The duo’s latest album was released on genre-agnostic Portland label Beacon Sound and features London MC Brother May (CURL). Their catalogue further includes full-length releases on notable labels such as fabric’s imprint Houndstooth and Infinite Machine, with features in i-D, The Wire, Clash, DJ Mag, NTS and BBC Radio amongst others. Alongside their albums their output involves a series of noise-driven impro based work on progressive tape labels. Soft as Snow have toured extensively performing in clubs, festivals and art galleries across Europe and the USA, including Robot Festival (IT), L.E.V. Festival (ES), Lunchmeat Festival (CZ), Athens Digital Arts Festival (GR), Roter Salon, Volksbühne (DE), Berghain (DE), Coaxial Arts (USA), Rubber Gloves (USA), Soy Capitán Gallery (DE) and Disconnect (IT), and completed artist residency at Friche la Belle de Mai (FR). DPSD is the audiovisual project of Danny Perez. Using his filmmaking background (ODDSAC, ANTIBIRTH) to create wild video projections that interact with beat-driven electronic music infused with broken guitar melodies. Touring for years with Black Dice and Panda Bear creating their concert visuals, has informed Perez’s own music which combines robust beats with dissonant electronics and expansive synthesizer tones. Live performances feature Perez’s signature visuals set to an ominous but playful take on power electronics and psych rock.
