After the chaotic Snowpocalypse of 2014 shutting down the city and trappingeveryone inside for a few days, Friday night was finally a night to go out and let loose. This Fridaywas particularly memorable as Illuminate brought in the widely known electronic indie pop band, Passion Pit. Passion Pit piled the main roomwith an energetic and passionate crowd of dedicated followers. With the rise in the electronic dance music scene, this indietronica group decided to change things up a bit and fuse in some of their performances with live dj-mixing as they started their fall tour of 2013 across the continent. Just now coming back from their winter break, the group has made an epic return as they entertained the crowd with an extraordinary compilation of tracks.
Bassist, Jeff Apruzzese performed in light of Passion Pit and overwhelmed the fans with a rare and dynamic setlist ranging from synthpop to upbeat and groovy techhouse and even dubtronica. Mixing popular tracks such as, “The Reeling” from their 2010 album “Manners” and the Mat Zo & Porter Robinson “Easy” mashup, Apruzzese’s set blew the crowd away with his high energy and unique sound. There’s no telling what Passion Pit’s next steps will be as the group continues to explore their diverse creativity in the electronic dance music genre.
