YOI TOKI makes its Chicago debut
Check out a future funk mix here to hear what we are about. And here are some party photos from recent LA, SF and NYC parties here, here and here.
Future Funk is a Vaporwave subgenre that emerged around 2010 (championed by artists such as Yung Bae, Night Tempo and Macross 82-99) it uses elements of Funk and Disco combined with Japanese City Pop influences, resulting in a sound that is upbeat, insanely danceable and very funky. Future Funk's aesthetic is a mix of nostalgic influences such as 90s anime and '80s consumer culture. The fact that it is derived from Vaporwave goes some way in explaining the familiar and yet strangely unique sound and visuals
With DJs Valentine, Merlin, + Guests
Subterranean: 2011 W. North Ave., Chicago. 9pm. 21+
