Elevate Festival (Resident Advisor review)
Pursuit Grooves is just as comfortable playing for an intimate crowd as she is rocking the bass induced main Room One of Fabric or the Redbull Stage at the Sonar Festival. Pursuit Grooves is an entertainer (trained in theater for years growing up) and delivers an energetic performance with her unique hardware sampler/drum machine (no laptop in sight) which allows her to directly communicate with the audience. She takes them on a journey with her live set creating movements and interludes, building a dynamic rhythmical story, highlighted by a mastery of MC vocals.
Her recent stage show sees her sometimes collaborating with eclectic producer/turntablist ProEf for a special "tag-team de force." Elevating the definition of a live electronic stage show. Pursuit Grooves has a degree in film and is a highly imaginative video artist. When possible, she will provide custom visuals of her work to accompany the performance. A special treat indeed!
