VonDisco
VonDisco is a dance band. They are not trying to change the world, but simply trying to make it a bit more fun.
Fusing elements of Dub, Electronica, Disco, House, Drum and Bass, New Wave, and Lounge,VonDisco certainly push their sound to the far reaches of sanity. Started in 2006 as a side project and live jam session, the group has quickly evolved into a cohesive unit whose improvisatory journeys into deep dance-centered music connect to a wide audience.
Based on the open format of such ensembles as The New Deal (Canada) and The Bays (U.K.), it is evident through hearing VonDisco, in the live sertting , that anything can and will happen, and that a brand new musical idea in the spur of the moment, may take the band well into uncharted territory.
Rather than falling into songwriting clichés, VonDisco have a very open and organic interpretation of how a song or piece is formed, with certain elements always evolving throughout the performance. The time may speed up or slow down, the feel may change from dub into drum and bass, but it is all with purpose and relation to the listeners and dancers.
