Le Poisson Rouge, the new kid on the proverbial music venue scene, had a show that took them back in time, to when almost long-forgotten genres like disco, funk and afro-beat, respectively roamed the airwaves, Wednesday night with their show of Chin Chin opening up for the Budos Band.

Wednesday night, Brooklyn-based bands, Chin Chin, who dabbles with electro-pop, elements of disco, and with brass and percussion instruments, and Budos Band, an afro-beat reincarnation of old bands of Fela Kuti with much more funk, provided a dance party that the retro back into the brand-new venue in West Village.

Chin Chin opens the night with song off their self-titled album, and the crowd began to dance. The sound permeated throughout the venue and everyone, from those right at the stage, to those in the back, lounging on the furniture, began to dance in a sort of shuffle, as the synthesizers and trumpets serenaded the crowd. Then as the lead singer brought out his vocoder, the crowd went crazy and the dancing grew until their set had ended.

Then as Budos Band began setting up for their set, the party kept going with DJ Raw Fusion some dance and boogie records, and moved into a funk set. People moved out of the center, and many began exploring the new venue and its intricacies, such as the tilted fish tank right as you walk into the venue, or the straps and belts on the stairs, or the gallery that is also a part of Le Poisson Rouge.

After, Budos Band took the stage, and the dance party grew larger, as the 12-man band filled with brass and percussion instruments blessed the crowd with songs off their two albums, “Budos Band” and “Budos Band II.” They also played a few songs that will be featured on their upcoming album, which may have a funkier sound based on the exclusive songs they played. And with every song, the crowd was just more into the atmosphere and danced more and more. In all, a great show for the Budos Band and Chin Chin, and for Le Poisson Rouge for being a great place to showcase the ever-growing indie-scene in New York.
