Róisín Murphy worried as part of her Hit Parade -Turn it over Elevate Festival in its anniversary edition the final concert – no, probably even: the absolute consensus dance-pop highlight!
The specified timetable for the event, which was sold out (despite not necessarily cheap ticket prices). Orpheum (which, as always, there is nothing to complain about in terms of sound) is for the ton: Call Dug starts well before 8 p.m. and plays until nine (after a fake exit shortly before the actual end), with his DJ set entertaining in a tasteful and entertaining way.
What is most popular is when there are abstracted inklings of iconic pop culture scenes from the house Depeche Mode or Beatles mix into the proceedings, while otherwise benevolent nodding of the head determines the manageable range of motion of the audience (at least noticeably impatient subliminally) waiting for Róisín Murphy.
However, no one really stands still after half past nine. Murphy opens with it Pure Pleasure Seeker from the dressing room in staccato across the screen and, based on this, puts on an exuberant performance that covers a spectrum that knows no restraint, from the wicked style icon to the approachable warmth: practically every song comes with new outfits and accessories, sets homogeneously individual ones Stimulate, pick up.
The smooth instant catchy tune Coocool suggests a strip insert, for The Universe The 50 years immerse themselves in the crowd (hugging, giving away set lists, taking selfies,…) and getting dressed You Knew red ribbons under the skirt and blouse as sacred offerings to the audience. She spits in an almost techno-like pump Forever More Rose petals onto the stage, which are enthusiastically picked up by the lyrically celebrating audience, pumps in Crazy Ants Reprise into the club, squeaks for Can‘t Replicate the camera and knocks in Fortune Teller (Bang Bang) lights out with a technically messy boxing workout before the previously unreleased title song from Hit Parade as a secret smasher providing the soundtrack for twerking dance moves and push-ups. One highlight scene follows the next.
The ex Generation-Singer is a superstar of the scene without any signs of fatigue, radiates charm, charisma, energy and captivating body awareness, radiates grandeur and seduction, is vocally and really in a good mood anyway, reels off her program with an almost breathless enthusiasm, just like the audience a hell of a lot of fun – and jazzy too Sing it Back (during which the camera is turned on for the stage show, but this detracts from the entertainment value of the directly in Murphy‘s Law practically no detriment to the passing party) as well as a lounge version of The Time is Now also a handful of immortal, excitingly performed hits from her pre-solo period in the program.
All about the great current album Hit Parade The set that was built up goes off with smart nonchalance, celebrates a great arc of tension, literally flies away and lets two hours of playing time go by without any length, because the songs are organically taken by the hand by the superb backing band with so much groove and funk, and apart from that show cool danceability with emotional depth: Róisín Murphy on stage is simply a different, more iconic level than on record.
That’s why half an hour before midnight we go out into the warm evening with a perfectly summed up concert pumped full of endorphins: the Irishwoman is in her own league, as this show, which is bursting with power, proved quite impressively – and a surprising warmth to boot .
