Chromeo @ the Trocadero 07/27/2010

“Ohh ohh ohh, CHRO-ME-O!” was the chant that rang out through the Trocadero on Tuesday. You guessed it, it was a Chromeo show, and the audience couldn’t wait for the electrofunk duo. Holy Ghost! opened up the show, and after a semi-long wait, Chromeo took the stage. The Montreal natives blew it out of the water, playing tracks off their hit album Fancy Footwork, as well as the new stuff that’s out from the upcoming Business Casual, to be released September 14. There was a little break in between songs, but each featured some sort of witty or funny transition. The crowd lost their shit for every single track, including fan favorites like ‘Needy Girl’ and ‘Fancy Footwork’. Dave 1 and P-Thugg had incredible stage presence that instantly brought a smile to everyone’s face and made it impossible not to dance. This was honestly one of the funnest shows I’ve been to in a really long time. Basically, go see Chromeo. You won’t regret it. Catch them at the Osheaga after-party, going down at Metropolis July 31 (this Saturday!) in Montreal. We’re also chatting with the guys today, so be on the lookout for that interview in the near future. In the meantime, have a listen to some of our fave Chromeo tracks.
