.
Dark Party will release their debut full-length album LIGHT YEARS on November 2 through Old Tacoma Records and 1320 Records. Weaving spacey electro, west coast funk, and sharp melodic synths, the duo create pulsating dance rhythms that will set your feet on fire. It's been years in the making but well worth the wait. Dark Party is the electronic dance project of Tacoma raised, Brooklyn-based producer Eliot Lipp and Chicago-based producer Leo 123. Each with their own respective critically hailed releases, they make and DJ electronic music influenced by House, Disco, and 80's Hip-Hop rooted in New York and Chicago, the cities where they currently reside.Having originally met at The San Francisco Art Institute several years ago, the Dark Party project actually didn't come together until recently - formed as an outlet to pay tribute to the duo's favorite classic productions, while forging their own path towards the perfect modern beat. Together they create upbeat, electro funk masterpieces - any of which with the potential of becoming a dance floor classic. Their sound could sometimes be compared to modern acts like Metro Area/Morgan Geist, Daft Punk, Dam-Funk, Jimmy Edgar, while giving nods to classic dance beats from the 80's & 90's. Over the short time touring and recording, DARK PARTY have toured the country, sharing the stage with acts like Pretty Lights, Bassnectar, The Gaslamp Killer, Skream, Prefuse 73, Mike Slott & many others.
