I recently read that MSTRKRFT are toe-to-toe with Justice vying for the crown as the new electro kings - at the time I disagreed. I was more closely following Justice and Bloody Beetroots remixes thinking that these were stronger. After seeing this show - my opinion has changed. When I was living in Toronto, I had occasion to see MSTRKRFT - usually by accident. Previous shows, although good did not compare to this one that was recently performed in Calgary.
Link of the show........
The energy of the show was tremendous. Set included a HAUT remix of D.A.N.C.E. Other highlights for me included another MSTRKRFT remix of their own Neon Kings. Mix in some Bloody Beetroots, Vitalic and Daft Punk for good measure and you have a stellar set. Apparently, this set is almost identical to the one that was played on BBC Radio 1 a few weeks back that I missed.
Small Town DJs also played a great set. Calgary favorite.
The only thing that I will complain about is the venue. Although as a space Flames Central is great (don't get me started on the name), it is obvious that this is a sports bar. Aside from the Flames decor, massive amounts of TVs, the sound is terrible. It only comes from the front of the room and although the quality is good, it is evident that the venue is not made to hold this type of event.
