Adventure hails from Baltimore, where he's the resident MIDI composition expert in the Wham City clan. His 8-bit dance tracks sound like amped-up original NES games, and get even the shyest, nerdiest kids dancing. He's joined tonight by EAR PWR, the cutest electro-pop duo this side of the Mississippi, who come from Asheville, North Carolina, but seem to actually be inhabitants of a magical land filled with neon diamonds and enchanted kittens. The notorious audience huggers' second record, Super Animal Brothers III — released this week — successfully manages to big up sparkly sweaters while also showing their thug side, via adorable references to Souljah Boy and ghostriding.
