Blind Barber Goes Airplane Mode
On March 22nd from 9pm-2am, Blind Barber will host the sneak preview dance party of your dreams. A rejection of cool for the sake of being cool, Airplane Mode takes a less exalted approach to the typical listening party. Instead of revolving around a single artist or specific body of work, emphasis is placed on the experience of the event itself. Creating a casual, friendly environment is the prerogative. If you happen to hear your next favorite song while there, all the better.
Behind the event are Chicago artists Groupthink and Billy Macadamia. In combining their knowledge of the creative scene, the two programmed a roster that showcases a variety of artists with diverse tastes. From IDM virtuoso Abigail to vintage furniture forager Chair of Chair, Airplane Mode will unveil what has been hiding on the hard drives of both seasoned DJs and of those more new to the scene. Groupthink and Billy Macadamia will also take the helm, pressure testing unreleased songs and spinning tracks from artists they want to spotlight. Additionally on the line-up are Cloudy and grills-sculptor Secret of Manna.
Airplane Mode will be free to the public. Come with an open mind and unshackle yourself from that cellular device. Mindfulness is key. Kindness is mandatory.
