by and with AL JACOBI

A generation amid its own conflicting identity crisis and rebellion against the norms of the past is the starting point for Al Jacobi’s narratives. With banging beats and vivid lyrics, the young wordsmith wants to create a sonic universe that is both innovative and unique whilst supporting his ambitious lyrics. Al is the only rapper in the world performing with the MiMU Gloves – a wireless, gesticular MIDI controller used to control various parameters of the music while performing. He uses these for musical control and voice manipulation as well as audiovisual communication with dazzled audiences. Al’s show is at the Red Salon at Pumpe.
