This year I'm eying on Elecoldxhot. Frankly speaking I wasn't quite a big fan of them before this. I've seen their performance in Astro Battleground and click through some of their videos on Youtube. While I found their style unique, their skills are lacking and their dance variety limited. I thought they still don't groove much to the music, they still stop half way through the dance and waste time looking at each other, too much slow mo..
But this performance totally blown me away... O.O
The crowd just love it don't they? I myself have watched it for countless times :D
To me, rather than doing complicated flipping or human stacking or any moves that requires years of practicing to achieve perfectness, they focused more on choreographing a set that would sell for sure. They've mastered the tactics so well that people would be totally mesmerized by their show and oversee the weaknesses in their moves. Take this video for example. Dennis is the only one who can shake like a real mama.. But the show was a blast, no one really cares about how they dance.. It was so mind blowing that you won't even have time to think : hey, that guy should have shaken harder.. Of course if everyone could dance like Dennis that would give extra merit..
Another strength of this crew is they are very confident in themselves and their crew members. They work together so well that you can hardly find any fault in their routine 95% of the time. Everyone in the team loves their set, they have practiced for so many times and all there is left is to impress the people. Not to mention they are hardworking and creative. They are able to pull it off every week with strong believe in themselves.
Quoting Showdown judge Maple Loo: They are creative, cool, confident, they have character, they got craft and lastly they dance like crazy. This group will definitely go far in this competition. All the best to Elecoldxhot!!
