Jesse Keeler of MSTRKRFT relaxes at BOMA. The electronic duo played their first show in Ohio Thursday.
The duo, who perform as the DJ group MSTRKRFT, performed a pre-recorded set opened by Felix Cartal and Congorock.
“This venue is the best I’ve ever played in,” Cartal said of BOMA, which used to be a church. Cartal, 21 years old, is a native to Vancouver and spins electro, electronica, and techno music, coordinating well with the funky beats of MSTRKRFT.
The crowd sported bar-popular glow sticks, some donned in the MSTRKRFT logo, a gold hockey mask.
MSTRKRFT will be touring across America to promote their new album “Fist of God” through the rest of the month.
