Glitter55

The Moroccan DJ known as Glitter55 started shining when she arrived in Paris at the age of 24.. Her exploration into the electronic world began with an outstanding and organic performance at Les Transmusicales in 2018, embarking upon a serie of major festivals in France and overseas, like Nuits Sonores (Lyon and Brussels) or We Love Green, Techno Parade, Moga, or her session for Boiler Room at Festival Le Bon Air ...

Now, Manar Fegrouch (her real name) is continuing her journey, brewing her own western world and the futurism of techno boosted with breakbeats and gqom rhythms, into some of the most demanding clubs such as La Machine du Moulin Rouge, Concrete, but also in Geneva, Beyruth, Berlin... and in her homeland, Morocco. She has also started a residency on Rinse France and regular events (firstly in Paris) called FISSA.

After a few vocal featurings (w. Bawrut, Malcolm, Sebastien Forrester...) released in 2020/2021, گليثر ٥٥ Glitter is now ready to spread her own border-breaking tracks, coproduced with fellows Cheb Runner and DeGrandi, to be released next Spring.

After a special feature in Tracks (Arte), she has appeared on the live streaming ARTEMIX O TRABENDO (alongsides Joe Goddard or Kiddy Smile) through french/ german national TV in late 2021.

In 2021 گليثر ٥٥ Glitter was also part of the new live creation "Bird Signals for Earthly Survival" as a vocal act alongside Mehmet Aslan, played at Nuits Sonores, then Scopitone (Nantes) and Multiplica Festival (Luxembourg). It was supported by We Are Europe.

In 2022 گليثر ٥٥ Glitter presents an exciting new AV project, called Musahara ("Alliances/Affinities") including her own productions, a dance act performed by Nathan Gombert and/or Lisa Laurent, and visuals created by moroccan photograph Joseph Ouechen and english creative studio DRME. Musahara will be premiered at Nuits Sonores.
