Show Review: Kap Slap & Gazzo @ The Granada

     Kap Slap & Gazzo stopped in Lawrence on their "BREAKOUT" tour. The show hosted by Hy Tekk Productions at the granada was one to remember. The names attached to the show were not the biggest in the mainstream industry, so the crowd was not as packed as it gets at many Hy Tekk shows. There was however a building of over flowing support, and the slightly smaller crowd did nothing to dampen the night for the DJ's. Doors opened at 7 and the pre-show session was a nice primer for the sets starting at 8. Two local DJ's opened the show and they did great, but the show took on a completely different life after Gazzo opened his set. Gazzo's energetic set and use of familiar mixes put the crowd into the right energetic mood. Then the lights changed and Kap Slap appeared on stage and that was when the show had started to reach its peak. Kap Slap's mix selection was always in line with what the crowd wanted. He kept the crowd jumping, and dancing constantly. His pacing was also great too, some DJ's just hit you constantly with bass and that can get tiring physically and mentally. There were "rest" songs in between his hardcore mixes and he also shot a cooling agent out into the crowd to keep everyone cool. That is an underappreciated service at shows, the level of energy and body heat in the crowd, he very well may have saved a life with these practices. I could sing praises for days for his performance today, and the 4 or 5 encore songs he treated the crowd to. Kap Slap is definitely someone you want to keep your eyes on in the EDM scene.
