Pearl & Pelio are a dynamic Trance/Progressive duo hailing from Santa Monica, CA. Their performance and productions are marked by a combined 15 years of formal musical education in both classical guitar and classical piano. The two met at University and immediately clicked on likes and dislikes of electronic dance music – leading to a musical partnership. With Pelio continually working towards better mastering the art of the DJ, and Pearl taking the reigns for the majority of their 2009 productions, Pearl & Pelio are building a name in circles in southern California and beyond. Possibly one of their most defining elements is their approach to the live show, where simply jockeying records takes a whole new approach. In their performances, Pelio’s harmonic mixing, perfectly Platinum Noted tracks, and unique DJ tricks are blended into a rich, smooth sound that Pearl adds “on the fly†live elements to via software applications and live instruments. This marriage of the traditional DJ to the progressive, effects/sample oriented live element has caught the ears of such Los Angeles based promotion crews such as Funxion, Leverage Ent, Circus Disco, and Moda nightlift. In addition, they host a bi-monthly radio show entitled “Coastal Sessions†on PURE.FM internet radio where they have followed such acts as Duderstadt, Solarstone, Mike Mikhijian, and Kyo to name a few. Finally, Pelio has been highlighted as the guest DJ on Bob Motamedi’s “California Trancient†monthly ETN.FM program.2008 came and went, and so did a great year. Pearl & Pelio saw guest DJ spots on DI.FM's Vocal Trance channel alongside Project C and GT. In addition, the duo found a great deal of acclaim for their mash-ups and dj edits of many popular rock, trance, and progressive tracks.Pearl & Pelio are seeking to expand their performance schedule. It is in the live performance that they take their greatest pride, as this is where they see their efforts come to fruition. The love of the music and more so, the love of making people move, is what drives this duo’s passion.
