The Glitch Mob to headline the Trinumeral Festival (9-9-09)

Trinumeral Festival FlyerThe music line-up for the Trinumeral Music & Arts Festival has been announced. Headlining is The Glitch Mob, a hip-hop group that incorporates live remixing and electronic music production sometimes labeled "glitch hop." We mentioned the Glitch Mob in January when Pandora labeled them "post-modern hip-hop."

Regardless of how they are labeled them you will dance to their beats. Yes you will.

Post-modern Hip-Hop: The Glitch Mob

Pandora, describing The Glitch Mob as "four gents who are setting the dance world ablaze with their futuristic hip-hop deconstruction," features three videos of the group talking about their music, and preforming live at the at the Mezzanine club in San Francisco:

  • In Track 1, they explain their niche.

  • In Track 2, they describes themeselves as being somewhere between a DJ and a live band, "we create our music with the intent of remixing it live."

  • In Track 3, they explain their creative approach in using hardware and software as "instruments."
