can live electronic music performers lure you onto the dance floor, compel you move your ass, and keep you there all night?

you bet your ass they can.  let MNO show you how drum & bass is made - live.  chest thumping beats programmed, mixed, and sampled on the spot along with a tabla player, and a horn for two sets.
