Jane Remover’s Closest Concert to Human Perfection at Terminal 5

Attending Jane Remover’s concert this past week with two of my best friends was my most anticipated event of the year. I’ve been listening to Jane Remover’s music for a while now, and like many others, their usage of catchy lyricism paired with clever, energetic, electronic beats drew me deeper into their discography and the world of hyperpop. As for the concert, which was on September 22 at Terminal 5 in New York City, I was very much looking forward to the loudness of the music and an energetic crowd to jump around with. With all of this in mind, my friends and I definitely got our wish granted.

The venue itself is notorious for its over-crowded, sweltering hot environment, which makes it disliked by a majority of the concert-going community. Contrary to popular opinion, I actually very much enjoyed Terminal 5, and the energy it brought to Jane Remover’s music. It was just as messy, hot, and crowded as people were saying, but it was as it should be. “Dancing with Your Eyes Closed” is meant to be listened to so loudly that your eardrums vibrate, surrounded by individuals equally as sweaty as they are excited. Without the chaos of the surrounding crowds, I don’t think the vibrancy of the music would have been the same. However, even though the floor in front of the stage was constantly dancing and full of energy, there were still other, more accessible options available for those who may want to enjoy Jane Remover’s performance without the addition of a rowdy crowd.

As for the music itself and Jane Remover’s performance, I have nothing but admiration and compliments. The setlist was an incredible mix across their albums, as well as the humorous inclusion of “Replay” by Zendaya mixed into one of their songs. Dazegxd, the opener, was also an extremely talented DJ, and his ability to excite the audience before the main act was incredible. There wasn’t a single spot within the venue that music could not be heard reverberating off the walls. From start to finish, the hype was extremely curated and well maintained, which was helped by the long, teasing lead-ups of songs in between mixes, as well as the never-ending chanting and jumping from the pit.

Besides the enamoring stage presence from Jane Remover, the lighting, OBS, and stage effects truly added to the show’s aesthetics. The lights never seemed to stop flashing; it seemed like every movement followed the flow of each song. The back of the stage was lit up with a recording of the stage, as well as visuals that made a great addition to the visual image the songs paint in your head. The music blended seamlessly with the production, and it definitely enhanced the experience. Overall, it was a very impressive operation.

If you’re a fan of Jane Remover, I would highly recommend attending one of the few concerts they have left on this leg of the tour.
