Elements is the longest standing Drum and Bass night in the Boston area and has faultlessly run for over 14 years, every Thursday at the Phoenix Landing... experience shows.
Resident DJs Lenore and Fox delivered track after track of uplifting and feel-good music to it's wanting crowd. The night was refreshing - reminiscent of older times when DnB wasn't intermixed with dubstep or drumstep, only mixing the best of American and European DnB. The resident DJs live for DnB, and their infectious love for what they're doing transcends to the crowd; you'll see DJ Fox bopping away whilst DJ Lenore, slightly more reserved, looks to you with a smile that says, 'I know you're gonna think this next track is sick.'
Elements attracts between 100 - 200 dedicated people who want to hang out, dance to the up and coming DnB numbers of our time; this night is clean of genre stereotypes, the people you find here will not be dressed in low rise pants, baseball caps and sun glasses, this night is for people who love their DnB. And why do they come back? Simply because of the care and attention that's lavished on the night - up until recently DJs only used vinyl.
The night boasts superb guest DJs that pull in the crowds and often sees the night sell out weeks in advance. Previous DnB legends that rocked up at the Phoenix Landing include: DJ Goldie, Hype, Adam F, Sub Focus, High Contrast, Ed Rush/Optical, Fresh, Benny Page, Doc Scott, Friction, J Majik, Calibre, Breakage, DJ IkoN, Black Sun Empire, and soon one of the most revered DnB DJs, Andy C, will be gracing Boston with his fast paced mixing.
Staff are friendly, the night costs $5 and drinks are reasonably priced, so even if DnB isn't for you then you have a reason to be there.
