In a dazzling combination of lasers, strobe-lighting, crowd hopping and bass dropping, React Detroit presented yet another successful bass-driven show, this time landing at the corner of Michigan Avenue and Rosa Parks Boulevard at The Works.

Last Saturday night, Jan. 14th, BASS KITCHEN: KILL THE NOISEDETROIT featured artists Kill The Noise, Serax, Matt Clarke, Casey Phear, DJ Raw Wave, Madis One w/ MC Meel Ticket, DUBphonics, Yetti, Massiffect, DJ Claymore, RCU and Disciple at The Works Club & Grill. The crowd filled the back room of the venue, pushing up against the stage and pulsing to the beats, cheering and waving their arms when each new artist came to the board.

BASS KITCHEN is a bass music-oriented event encompassing all genres of EDM,” said Jason Wakefield, Marketing/PR, React Presents Detroit.

Under the black lights, the scores of attendees sporting neon colors and twirling glow sticks seemed to move in stop motion because of the lights that flashed in accordance with the music. From furry hats and fish nets to baseball caps and button-downs, partygoers from all over Metro Detroit stayed inside until the wee hours of Sunday morning, away from the 17 degrees Fahrenheit temperatures outside.

“Shows like these demonstrate a big love for the community, which translates to support for making Detroit a better place,” said Trevor Dernai, a photographer for the event and art promotion agency, sEnt.

Coming up tonight is MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE 2 in Detroit on Saturday Jan. 21 at Bert’s Warehouse and Theater 2739 Russell St. The show starts at 8 p.m. and goes until 6 a.m.
