A certain type of dancer smiles knowingly when the name Titonton Duvante appears on a line-up. At Bar Temp., that knowing crowd gathers again as the Columbus, Ohio native brings three decades of discipline and desire to the booth. His sound carries weight without heaviness, locking feet to the floor while nudging the mind elsewhere. As founder of Residual Recordings, he champions both his own catalogue and peers such as Boo Williams and John Tejada. More than 50 releases mark a career that refuses to idle, shaped by early training as a multi-instrumentalist. Expect elegance, grit and control. Support comes from DOTT and The Outsider, keeping the room steady before the master takes charge.
March 7. B400 at the door and B600 after midnight. Bar Temp., 9pm onwards
