The Montreal-based group Nomadic Massive has firmly established itself in a musical style that has come a long way since its early days with two turntables and a microphone. These musical nomads—true, talented stage animals—embody an open-minded brand of hip-hop that draws inspiration from the traditions of the past, combining live instrumentation, sampling, and a myriad of vocal styles that leave no one indifferent. With performances around the world—ranging from the Montreal International Jazz Festival to the TFF Festival in Rudolstadt, Germany, and including the Louisiana International Festival and Grand Performances in Los Angeles—the group has established itself as a must-see Canadian act.
