MUTEK 2024 | Maara Made Us Rave

by Salima Bouaraour

The PAN M 360 team is criss-crossing the entire MUTEK 2024 program, observing as many artists as possible during this 25th edition of its Montreal version. Keep up with our experts until Sunday evening, as no other MUTEK event promises such extensive media coverage!

On Wednesday evening, an atmosphere worthy of an underground rave between the end of the night and the beginning of dawn took hold of the Expérience 2 stage from 6.45pm. Barely had she set foot on her machines, Montrealer Maara distilled a fiery live set. The energy was palpable from the very first minutes, even if the performance was based on gradual increases in BPM, fluctuating between 130 and 170. The dominant sound was techno, interspersed with trance, dubstep and jungle. Voice samples filtered to perfection.The transitions between each track were so fluid that the audience remained on the edge of their seats, and the adrenalin never let up! A producer on the rise worldwide -EP Ultimate Reward on NAFF Recordings, EP Potion Activated on Sonido Isla, track The Forbidden Plum nominated for Best Song 2021 by Resident Advisor- the Montrealer deployed all her talents to electrify the crowd, working her performance like a dj set. Indeed, it was not uncommon for her to mute the bass, pass some vocals under echoes or add a slight delay to maintain the tension and electricity. She really did. Maara blew us away!
