Welcome to Dinky’s Black Cabaret! Prepare yourself for a selection of dark, slinky odes to
downtown nightlife. Tonight, Dinky (aka Alejandra Iglesias) presents the ultimate 21st
century New York pop record. Fusing the music of her teenage years with the current
electro/post–punk/dance experimentation going on in her current home of New York, Black
Cabaret entertains and titillates. Imagine a radical reworking of Cabaret Voltaire, Madonna,
Aphex Twin and Prince – and you’re only halfway there. Active in superclubs with the likes of
DJ Hell, Miss Kitten and Richie Hawtin, as well as underground after–hours parties with
luminaries such as Magda and Atom Heart, Dinky knows what moves people. Black Cabaret is
the culmination of every facet of her musical persona. Yes, parts hearken back to the
melodically–inclined gothic elements of her earlier techno work, but other parts significantly
explore brand new areas. Black Cabaret is the state of the New York dance scene. Stop reading
all the music press and listen to what everyone downtown is really dancing to.
