LUNICE at Witness

May 9th, 2012

One half of TNGHT alongside Hudson Mohawke, Lunice Fermin Pierre II has taken over the asylum because his sound is crazy, his vibe is inconceivable, and his appeal boundless. You might recognise his all-dancing charismatic bad self from Azealia Banks’ 212 video.

He’s here as part of Witness’ 1st Birthday, Noisey presents, and also repping LuckyMe. He shook the house down on a Monday night last year, this one should wreck the block.

Taking cues from Autechre, Bangladesh, Dilla, and the Ed Banger clique, Lunice managed to craft his own recipe which makes dance floors bump and bass bins thump. He’s put out remixes out on prominent labels such as Mad Decent, XL Recordings, Young Turks, Big Dada, Top Billin’ and a recent solo EP entitled STACKER UPPER which was released on the Scottish Based label LuckyMe.
