Chicago electronic trio whose darkwave-infused, synth-driven sound and club-ready energy mark them out as bold voices in modern electronic music.
Pixel Grip are a Chicago-based electronic trio composed of vocalist Rita Lukea and producers Jonathon Freund and Tyler Ommen, known for fusing darkwave, minimal-synth, cold-wave and EBM with pop-friendly hooks and unapologetic energy. They’ve emerged from Chicago’s DIY and club scene and channel a club-night intensity into their sound, drawing on the queer nightclub legacy of electronic genres while injecting a gritty, visceral feeling into each track.
Their third album, Percepticide: The Death of Reality (2025), stands as a conceptual and emotional milestone — exploring themes of betrayal, trauma, identity collapse and catharsis through pounding bass, angular synths and Lukea’s commanding vocals. On stage they’ve built a reputation for charged performances with a club-atmosphere vibe, and their tracks like “Stamina”, “Split” and “Reason to Stay” showcase their blend of emotive lyricism and dancefloor aggression.
