DJ T + Cut Throat Republic @ SAT

This year, Halloween was coming early. On Friday, October 28 as a matter of fact, as SAT was hosting Neon Loves Halloween, featuring DJ T, Cut Throat Republic, Plastique de Rêve, Water Lilly & Jordan Dare. Only about a third of the SAT's main room was opened for the event, which was far from being overcrowded. The set up was pretty simple: a few screens here and there, and black lights.

Water Lilly, Plastique de Rêve and Jordan Dare all did a good job warming up the room (or keeping the fire burning), but Cut-Throat Republic and DJ T still gathered the crowd's attention.


Cut Throat Republic is Jordan Dare & Sean Kosa's electro-rock band. Their live set-up also features Mateo Murphy and Pat Wreck. They gave a good show, and I'm definitely hoping they release a record sometime soon.


DJ T gave an interesting performance, focused on electro, perhaps more so than usual in order to please the Neon crowd. He nevertheless decided to slow it down a bit in the middle of his set and dropped a classic on us, namely 'Chase The Devil' by Max Romeo, which I hadn't heard in quite a while (outside the confines of my home, that is). A nice little break from the norm.

All in all, a good evening. Hopefully, I Love Neon will bring more artists from Get Physical! to Montréal next year. I need another Full Body Workout !
