Dance System Biography
“When Night Slugs boss L-Vis 1990, aka James Connolly, slips on his Dance System alias, the mission is simple: slamming, but pointedly simple and unfussy, tracks that get your ass on the dancefloor.” VICE
“Wind ‘Em Up; four infectious house belters designed specifically with the dancefloor in mind.” FACT
“ At the forefront of dance music for over ten years, as one of the UK’s most progressive producers, L-Vis 1990 revives Dance System, following a five-year break, with the playful Wind Em Up EP, offering is a playful take on the serious world of techno.” HYPEBEAST
“Sometimes you just want to unleash some slamming house bangers. And that’s exactly what Night Slugs co-founder aka L-Vis 1990 is doing under his Dance System guise.” DUMMY
At the forefront of dance music for over a decade, L-Vis 1990 has left an indelible mark as a progressive producer; including his alias Dance System.
Dance System boils dance music down to its core elements to create infectious club tools with character that will standout in any set. Following releases on Clone and Ultramajic, Dance System took a five-year hiatus and is excited to return with the Wind 'Em Up EP, released on April 12th on Modeselektor’s lauded Monkeytown Records.
In today’s serious techno world, and against the current political landscape, Dance System is the playful breath of fresh air we all want and need. With influence from Dance Mania and Relief Records, Dance System takes a nod from Chicago, but makes a new sound distinctly his own.
Indeed, on title track Wind Em Up, Dance System is playfully calling out for other DJs to do exactly that; wind up the crowd with the unexpected UK garage breaks that bring colour to the driving beat and guitar lick. Heeez Baaad takes a single hypnotic loop and pushes it to its absolute limit, the only break coming when the track slows down to a halt, before slamming straight back into the action. Bringing in the horns on That That Sh**, the off–kilter horn loop is unsettling, but driven along by the low end tom groove. Body closes out the Wind Em Up EP with an uplifting piano chord, before dropping you into minimal bassline and drum groove that’s just impossible to argue with on the dancefloor.
