Described as a “vanguard” by British publication Mixmag and “fearless” by Hyponik, Berlin-based Zoë Mc Pherson is a French-Irish multimedia artist whose practice absorbs elements of performance, sound design, installation art and DJing.

Their breathless third album and AV show “Pitch Blender” is a tight set of cybernetic dancefloor experiments that flicker between the rave and the art space, and arrives courtesy of SFX, the boundary-pushing A/V-focused label Mc Pherson runs with their long-time collaborator Alessandra Leone.

The remix EP boast an exciting line up consisting of Jana Rush, Scratcha DVA, MC Yallah, Kasimyn and Jessica Ekomane, that’s sure setting the dancefloor on fire!

Since the release of their immersive 2018 debut album “String Figures” and its acclaimed 2020 follow-up “States of Fugue”, Mc Pherson has performed across the world, appearing at Berlin’s CTM Festival, Berghain, MUTEK Mexico, ICA in London, Bourse de Commerce in Paris, MIRA in Barcelona, The Hague’s Rewire festival, Elevate Festival in Graz, Novas Frequências in Rio de Janeiro and Nyege Nyege in Jinja, Uganda.

They’re presenting spatial sound installations at Berlin’s world-famous MONOM (the world’s first 4DSOUND system) and Monom on tour, Silent Green amongst others, and worked alongside bULt, in Almaty, Kazakhstan’s largest city, to invite musicians to perform and hold workshops at a brand new queer-owned club.

A seasoned collaborator, Mc Pherson worked with renowned French sound artist Jessica Ekomane. The two performed a special project at Berghain’s Halle broadcast by ARTE TV, and their first recording was released on Ostgut Ton’s “Fünfzehn + 1” compilation. On the other end of their creative spectrum, Carbon 96 finds Mc Pherson teaming up with US techno producer and DJ Ciarra Black, and the duo’s effervescent debut “Carbonated” was released on Peder Mannerfelt Produktion earlier this year. Their most recent project however is 3OK, a frenetic project that was conceptualized in Uganda and matches Mc Pherson’s sci-fi sonics with singeli pioneer Jay Mitta’s breakneck beats and Malian veteran DJ Diaki’s unmistakable soundsystem energy.
