Glitch Mob Tickets : Glitch Mob Have Won Fans Through Showcasing Their Chosen Technology

By:


The Glitch Mob is a three-piece electronic group from Los Angeles, composed of Ed Ma (edIT), Justin Boreta (Boreta) and Josh Mayer (Ooah). The group, originally a four-piece including Kraddy, was formed in 2006 within the burgeoning Los Angeles bass-driven 'beat' scene that also produced Daedelus, Flying Lotus and Nosaj Thing.

The Glitch Mob made a name for themselves playing live, choosing to perform with laptops and MIDI controllers like the Lemur.They have won fans through showcasing their chosen technology during performance solos gaining attention in Los Angeles and San Francisco, eventually touring more widely along the West Coast and then to various festivals worldwide.

The group's debut album, Drink The Sea, debuted on the iTunes Electronic Chart at number five and peaked on the CMJ Top 200 Chart for College Radio at #57. The album's debut led Electronic Musician to run a cover story on the trio.Their single, "Drive it Like You Stole It", was #2 on XLR8R's Top Downloads of 2010 list.

On the fifth season of America's Got Talent, a blacklight dance group known as "Fighting Gravity" performs their act to music from the Glitch Mob. They used "Drive It Like You Stole It", "Animus Vox" and "How To Be Eaten By A Woman", as well as their remix of Nalepa's "Monday".

A remix of TV On The Radio's "Red Dress" was featured on the television adverts for 9 (2009 film) and an upcoming season of Damages.In a commercial for GoPro's HD cameras, "Animus Vox" is used.The song Fistful of Silence is used in the first trailer for the 2011 Marvel Captain America movie.The song Animus Vox is used in the ski movie trailer "Revolver" by Poor Boyz Production and their remix of Nalepa's Monday was used for the super park section of another of Poor Boyz movies, Everyday Is A Saturday.

edIT, Ooah, and Boreta are The Glitch Mob, the straight crunkest bunch of music masters this side of oblivion; their sets of the dirtiest, stickiest, nastiest, most insane bass licks make dancers brains explode.The Glitch Mob is dropping the filthy sounds of the future up and down the West Coast and around the globe, crunking out crowds left and right and conquering the bodies of all who stumble into the insane dance riot that is a Glitch Mob show.

The boys have pulled music out of the headphones and put the emphasis back on the live musical experience, and the community that is created from the energy on the dance floor goes absolutely freaking bananas to their obese bass licks and cut-up vocals. You walk off the dance floor at a Glitch Mob show transformed; their music serves the social function of unification through movement, and there is no going back.

Defying all categorization and forcing writers to make up new words, the Glitch Mob rejects traditional instrumentation and instead relies on robotic bleeps, mechanical clicks and scratches, erroneously produced noises never found in nature and an army of bass, often overlaid with gritty and organic rap lyrics.

Their original beats slam down as the sounds of the future; their music symbolizes the failure of technology and the debunking of the modern myth that progress will save us all. Progress will not save us- but dancing just might.
