The combined years of experience of Nü's resident DJs adds up to something like 75+ years clocked in the dance music trenches, and this event hopes to be a rallying point in Chicago for the stunningly underrepresented Nu-Disco/Indie Dance sound to live and grow. Expect slow-motion disco, sleazy sounds from outer space, new wave, now wave, deep house, and all things in between. Nü aims to be just what it says — something new, fresh, and fun in a city that can take itself and its years of experience a wee bit seriously, and one thing we have learned from experience is that taking one's self too seriously is never a good thing. So what better place is there to get weird and let your musical freak flag fly than Neo, Chicago's undisputed home of legitimate weirdos for over 30 years? The Outer Space Disco Dancing Society of Chicago will be happy to accept you in to its ranks, and it's going to be freaking fun.
