Weekend Videos: Grichu – “Ma Ma”

Grichu‘s “Ma Ma” is just what I needed to hear this weekend. It feels like an electrifying burst of energy that encapsulates the essence of indie electro-music. This Montreal-based producer, songwriter, singer, and DJ has created a mini gem that is truly irresistible to fans of the genre and beyond.

The song opens with a high-energy beat that immediately grabs your attention. The infectious, lightly sung chorus takes hold of you and creates a larger-than-life groove. It’s the kind of moment that invites you to let loose and dance as if your bloody life depended on it.

What sets Grichu apart is her ability to create music that feels authentic and possibly a little bit bonkers, meant in the best way possible. She fearlessly explores various styles, infusing them with her own unique touch. “Ma Ma” sees her effortlessly blend French and Italo-House influences to create a sound that is both nostalgic and refreshing.

But it’s not just the music that makes Grichu‘s artistry shine; it’s the message behind it. “Ma Ma” is a heartfelt homage to the artist’s late mother, who lost her battle with cancer. Despite the heavy origins of the track, Grichu maintains an optimistic and appreciative perspective. It’s a celebration of her mother’s love for life, family, and community and the resulting tribute feels quite literally larger than life.

Grichu‘s DIY approach to music production is truly commendable. She handles every aspect of her vision, from writing and producing the music to promoting her work. This level of dedication and passion is evident and guarantees she stands behind every note played.

Listening to “Ma Ma,” it’s impossible not to be swept off your feet. Grichu‘s talent is undeniable, and her ability to create music that transcends language barriers is remarkable. This single leaves you craving more of her infectious sound.

Ultimately, “Ma Ma” is a vibrant, dance-ready track that will have you hooked from the first beat.
