BACK TO LIFE

Soft Cell’s pioneering 1981 cover of the Northern Soul classic, “Tainted Love,” is the inspiration for this awesome 80s dance party. Building on a solid foundation of New Wave, we’ll dig deeper into the catalog of massive hits and overlooked misses from the late 70s through the early 90s – pivotal years in musical history that blurred the lines between Analog and Digital, Disco and Synthpop, Funk and Hip-Hop. A time when Alternative was called Post-Punk, Indie actually meant independent, and Throbbing Gristle’s “Hot on the Heels of Love” surely could have been alongside Blondie’s “Heart of Glass” on the charts…with today’s perspective. Other passions include CBGB-era New York, Batcave-era London – Punk Rock, Glam Rock, Kraut Rock, Girl Rock, Dad Rock, Rockabilly, Ska, Machine Soul, Blue-Eyed Soul, Darkwave, Coldwave – plus some guilty pleasures in the (strictly) Old-School Rap department.

Tainted Love happens the one Thursday every month at The Bell House, 149 7th St, Brooklyn. Hosted by DJ Jane Elizabeth (Tesco USA, Stylus NYC, Breakfast Club Philly 2010-2015).

10pm, 21+, Free

Join Powerslug as they present their an ode to our city, or just call it an all-night drunken sweaty dance affair, but either way this party is a celebration of the sounds of New York City, curated by some of our favorite local musicians and DJs. This party’s free and it’s for you, so help them spread the word and they’ll see you all on April 29. Don’t forget to bring your dancing shoes to Broome Street.
