Lageos

Description

The blend of electronic music and a classical orchestra has never been so breathtaking. After the release of the EP "Audio Track 5" and its live shows at the Strelka Institute in Moscow, Barbican Centre, and Tate Tanks in London, the iconic British musician and producer Darren Cunningham aka Actress collaborates with the London Contemporary Orchestra to release an album derived from their collaboration titled "LAGEOS" under Ninja Tune. The project, which originated as a performance at the Barbican in 2016 commissioned by Boiler Room and the LCO with the support of Arts Council England and Ninja Tune, where electronic and acoustic elements were in perfect synergy, not only from a harmonic perspective but also in the way traditional instruments were reworked to create hybrid instruments. The show, which was a massive success, sold out very quickly, prompting them to develop this project into an album. FOR THOSE WHO LIKE Andy Stott, Laurel Halo, Floating Points
