Mancub w/ Flashlights and Mercuria and the Gemstars @ Hi-Dive, 8:00PM, $6

Come down to the Hi-Dive tonight for a grand ole' time.  Denver locals Mancub and Flashlights will both rock your dancing socks off! These two group are among the most refreshing and unique electronic acts around Denver.  Mancub is a two-piece electronic act, but they use more than a computer to create their beats.  They have a table full of electronic musical objects, like guitar pedals, that they use together to drop new and exciting tracks.  Flashlights is also a local electronic two-piece group.  Their music is more down-tempo but keeps a continual foot-tapping beat in the background making it relaxing yet intriguing.  The contrast of the dance music beats and the lo-fi vocals makes a great combination that is unique and well executed.  You must make an appearance tonight if you're down to dance but want to see something more interesting than a formulaic DJ set.
