One of the best things about Wren Britton and Shien Lee's monthly Disko Nouveaux soiree: It attracts a startling menagerie of after-dark creatures, dressed to kill (and with hair to match). And the reason the party attracts such fabulousness is one of the other best things about the get-together: The spinners, including resident DJ Purevile (Britton in behind-the-decks mode) play selections largely culled from the darker ends of the New Romantic, postpunk and new wave discographies, with a bit of goth thrown in for good measure. And if that's not music that screams "not blue jeans and Converse All Stars again!" we don't know what is. We sent intrepid photographer Jakob N. Layman to the latest edition of Disko Nouveaux, held in Le Poisson Rouge's Gallery on Saturday 10 to catch the action—and here are the vivid results.
