TNGHT at Music Hall of Williamsburg (slide show)
The hyped Scottish-Canadian dance duo brings its bass-heavy party tunes to Williamsburg. (Kanye showed up!)
Given that the pair has released just one five-track, 16-minute EP, TNGHT managed to seamlessly stretch out its set with reworkings of tunes by Waka Flocka Flame, UGK and Kanye West, among others. And incidentally, the latter rapper just happened to be in the building. Much to the crazed delight of all assembled, West emerged halfway through “Theraflu” to rap on his own song, without a mike, while wildly gesticulating for all of 20 seconds. (Check out the footage here.) But it was TNGHT’s own songs—the ominous clip and stomp of “Higher Ground” and the pinging minimalism of “Goooo”—delivered at a thrillingly immersive volume, that made this live set such fun. Make it your mission to catch them next time they’re in town.
