Continuing this season of white-hot CENTER BOOTH sets is Brooklyn's own KYRUH, a much-loved local talent with an ever-growing international fanbase.
Four years into her DJ career, KYRUH’s development as an artist is palpable. These days, the New York native commands crowds across North America and Europe with considerable confidence, in part from the myriad of experiences and opportunities that have come her way. She even got tapped to do a Kelela remix!
Whether she's DJing at Brooklyn clubs such as Paragon (RIP), Bossa Nova Civic Club, Nowadays or BASEMENT (where she's practically a resident), further afield at RSO Berlin, Thuishaven, Renate and Khidi, sharing the decks with regular collaborator WTCHCRFT as Madness Of, or supporting the biggest names in techno including Jeff Mills, DJ Stingray 313, DJ Pierre and DVS1, KYRUH leaves a memorable impression with her distinctive and increasingly sophisticated style. She tends to play stormy and speedy, but with a fondness for groove and long blends, aiming to move hips and rinse minds at the same time.
Her CENTER BOOTH set exhibits all the markers of her growth, opening with a disorienting passage that sounds like a malfunctioning machine while keeping time with the beat. Next comes a rush of noteworthy transitions as tribal drumming gives way to hypnotic loops into horn-led beats. It's a mostly smooth but always compelling ride from there on in, dark but nimble, paced to perfection, and effectively designed to induce a trance-like state. Hit the link in bio for another standout set from one of techno's brightest talents.
