HOLY COW, this is a big one. DFA Records is the postpunk/dance label founded by NYC studio gurus James Murphy and Tim Goldsworthy. Since DFA’s breakout success with The Rapture’s “House of Jealous Lovers” single, these guys have been as hot as any production team in the world. And then of course, there’s Murphy’s own Grammy-nominated band, LCD Soundsystem, which has brought even more adoration and acclaim to the DFA club. However you slice it, these guys are on fire, so a DFA dance party is not something you want to miss.

On Saturday the 1st of March, PopRally is hosting just such an event to celebrate the MoMA exhibition Color Chart: Reinventing Color, 1950 to Today. Color Chart, which explores artists’ use of ready-made color from paint chips to colored tape, features works by 44 modern and contemporary artists, including Gerhard Richter, Andy Warhol, Damien Hirst and Angela Bulloch. This event is an exclusive preview of the monumental exhibition before its official opening to the public.

Performing at the event are The Juan Maclean (pictured above), T&T featuring Tim Goldsworthy & Tim Sweeney, Holy Ghost! and Justin Miller & Jacques Renault. Wear your boldest and brightest colors and get ready to move! There will be no parking on the dance floor. A wide spectrum of cocktails will be served, and Fred of course will be chilling all night, from 9pm-1am. Guests receive a colorful custom-made gift designed by PopRally and DFA. Check out the PopRally page at MoMA.org for more information. This is gonna be ridiculously rad.
