The Glitch Mob

One of the sounds that grew out of the laptop music micro-movement that kicked off in San Francisco in the 90's -glitch- is finally trickling down to party people at large, and was even much gossiped about at Burning Man this year.

What was once the domain of nerds and their dateless friends has been juiced up and smuggled into the ever-present post-hippy-raver breakbeat scene. Leading the advance is the Glitch Mob, an amorphous crew of local DJ-producers. Taking crunk and other urban pop music as its canvas to shred, The Glitch Mob manages to keep the dread-out yoga kids moving.

This year's Sonic Bloom will feature the full Glitch Mob roster of Ooah, ediT, Boreta and Kraddy.
