…Or, if you prefer your Canadians Kanye-endorsed, Chromeo-related,
and DMC championship conquering, consider DJ A-Trak. On his two mix CDs
so far this year (feeling lazy yet?), FabricLive 45 and
Infinity+1, the DJ delves more exclusively into the kind of
peak-time Francophillic electro he mashed-up with hiphop on
2007’s Dirty South Dance. A-Trak could cut and scratch your
face off for hours, but thankfully he never lets hot-dogging on the
decks get in the way of rocking a party. With M.I.A.
protégé Rye Rye and promising electro DJ/producer
Treasure Fingers. (Chop Suey, 1325 E Madison St, 324-8000. 8 pm,
