X’perience: A Tribe Called RED

by Xavier on March 14, 2013

So I know that I told you that I would have a student profile video for you to watch today, but I would like to think that I have something just as awesome, if not better, to share with you.

After my workout last night, I decided to attend this concert that Campus Activities was putting on in the Lory Student Center Theater. The group that performed was A Tribe Called RED, a Canadian and Native American musical group that create an original blend between dubstep, hip-hop, and cultural Native American beats and rhythms.

I had done marketing for this event through my job in Colab, and after having the initial marketing meeting with the programmers who organized this event, I knew that it was something that I wanted to attend.

Everything I ever wanted

From the video

that I have to share with you all, I hope it is clear why I loved A Tribe Called RED’s performance last night. The way they mix their music is amazing; I enjoyed the variety in their songs, as well as how well they made all of the different elements work together.

They also had this awesome screen with cool video clips projected on it. The group managed to make some clips line up perfectly with the words or beats from the music. A Tribe Called RED’s presentation was perfection and their creativity was heaven.

The attendants at the concert were definitely feelin’ it. As I was looking around at people, I saw so many of them gettin’ down to the beat and dancing around in the crowd. It was a good time for sure.

Outta Here

Well folks, this is my last blog before Spring Break, so we will have to manage without each other for a whole week. I will be looking forward to sitting around my house, doing absolutely nothing until break is over.

Can’t wait. Take care and I’ll catch you all on the flip!
