Concert by the EBM and New Beat duo ULTRA SUNN at the Elysium venue.
ULTRA SUNN play Elysium on Thursday, October 1, at 8 PM. They're a duo, and the whole night is built around their specific sound—a mix of EBM and New Beat. If you're not familiar with those terms, they're both branches of electronic dance music that came out of the 80s. EBM, or Electronic Body Music, is known for its hard, sequenced basslines and a certain industrial edge, while New Beat was the slower, more hypnotic club sound that took off in Belgium around the same time. Putting them together gives you a set that's heavy on the low end and built for a dance floor.
Since they're a duo, the show is just the two of them working through the set. The EBM side brings the drive and the sharper edges, and the New Beat side pulls it back into a steadier, more repetitive groove. It's a pairing that makes sense when you're in a club setting—one keeps the energy moving, and the other lets it settle into something you can actually dance to for a while.
