No Skimping with Trentemøller
Anders Trentemøller is becoming a force to be reckoned with. It isn't just that he has nearly 30 releases under his belt and has done dozens of remixes from top-notch electronic artists. It isn't just that his live show has stunned audiences around the world. (He blew folks away at Ultra last month. Not a bad place to pique interests, you know?) It's that he doesn't leave anything behind when he puts tracks together. He's clearly comfortable all over the map from minimal ("Vamp") to bangin' ("Killer Kat"). He also doesn't perfectly fit into either category. Some electronic musicians may drop everything plus kitchen sinks into their jams; Trentemøller does the same, but streamlines it.
Anders Trentemøller headlines the Mid with a full band on Thursday, the 21st. Dorit Chrysler and Decimal also play. Doors open at 9PM. The show's 21+ and $15. The Mid's at 306 N Halsted.
