If you live in New York City and enjoy fun, you’ve more than likely danced the night (and early morning) away at a BangOn! party. For years, this outfit has succeeded in cornering a sought-after niche in the warehouse party landscape, one that presents not only banging tunes from a vast spectrum, but also a mind-bending festival experience. For Halloween, the crew is gearing up for one of their most anticipated events yet.
You can expect their usual array of visual goodness: fire breathers, fire dancers, firemen (I think I saw this once), massive art cars, and tucked away side rooms and stages meant for one thing and one thing only—getting really fucking weird. The lineup for the 31st is fine-tuned for spooky strangeness and features the likes of indie-dance don Twin Shadow laying down a DJ set, live glitch-hop outfit Break Science, psy-trance charmer Random Rab, the USA debut of Purple Disco Machine as well as tech-house duo Sleepy & Boo.
