When you hear the term dance-off, you may think of cheesy battles where people attempt the Worm. But the Soul Clap & Dance-Off shindig is a different beast, with resident DJ Jonathan Toubin, fully back on the scene after a long recuperation from a freak accident, playing his typically flawless soundtrack of rock, funk and soul classics. The competitors were less concerned with form and more with simply letting loose, complicating the job of a judges’ panel that included Andrew W.K., Alexei Perry Cox of the Handsome Furs and Vivian Girls’ Cassie Ramone.
The next Soul Clap & Dance-Off is Sat 17.
