| Excerpt: So what on earth are Nile Rodgers's Chic doing here? They are the one disco era act with untouched, unassailable cool. Their 50-minute set underlines it with a blistering display of their influence on dance music. The monochrome stage set reflects their fusion of black American and white European grooves; their songs are the sources of stuff nicked by everybody from Basement Jaxx to S Club 7. By the time Good Times segues into Grandmaster Flash's Chic-stealing Wheels of Steel, nostalgia has made way for futuristic, existential funk and chintz has turned to gold dust. |
