This upcoming Tuesday, May 4th, an act is coming to Wrongbar unlike most we’ve seen there in the last year. The Glitch Mob, comprised of edIT, Boreta, and Ooah, is a collaboration taking influences from hip-hop, and electronic. edIT is a Los Angeles native DJ / Producer that we’ve raved about before, for his original work Certified Air Raid Material, and he’s also produced for Busdriver and The Grouch of the Living Legends crew.
Taking a nod from the resurgence in the instrumental hip-hop ‘beats’ movement, The Glitch Mob have injected a great sense of dance floor sensibility in to their music. Their live sets reinvent the DJ ‘tag-team’ concept with three performers on stage at once, interacting like a jazz combo, each taking the lead at intuitive moments, interweaving their own sounds, and remixing everything on the fly. The result is a sound distinctly their own, blending the deep head nod of hip-hop with serious bass music, throwing genre distinctions out the window.
The Glitch Mob has a pretty active facebook group that you can connect with them on.
