Circle of Live
A unique improvised collaboration between three iconic electronic artists, creating an immersive two-and-a-half hour sonic journey
Circle Of Live invites audiences into an immersive two-and-a-half-hour journey of a unique immersive experience, bringing together contemporary electronic pioneer Clark, boundary-pushing composer Rival Consoles, and project founder, improv virtuoso Sebastian Mullaert in a first-time union of free-form electronic and analogue musical expression, on a uniquely designed in-the-round format.
Rejecting formal structures, Circle of Live opens a space where performers and audiences alike explore the raw beauty of spontaneous creation. This one-off, never-to-be-repeated performance transcends conventional electronic music shows, immersing the audience in a world where creative forces converge, producing sounds that exist only in this singular moment.
Co-curated by renowned Swedish recording artist Sebastian Mullaert and Niko Seizov of Starling Works, Circle of Live pioneers long-format freeform jam sessions that unite esteemed musicians from diverse genres in an environment without creative boundaries. These sessions unfold organically, with collaborative and solo performances flowing freely, free from predetermined schedules, roles, or plans.
In their first collaboration—having never before met or shared a stage—Clark, a visionary known for his raw, cinematic soundscapes and unrelenting creativity; Rival Consoles, the London-based artist whose rich, emotive compositions weave warmth and complexity; and Sebastian Mullaert, celebrated for his deeply spiritual, transformative approach to live performance, will step into the unknown together. Their artistry will merge in a fleeting moment in time, creating a musical experience that will disappear as quickly as it is born—never to be repeated.
Sebastian Mullaert
Sebastian Mullaert is established as a potent force in the world of electronic music. Serious about reminding people to BE on the dance floor, or in the comfort of their own home, the music he makes is deep, progressive and utterly unique. His way of life, enthusiasm and dedication to his craft makes him one of the most exciting artists of his generation and, whatever the future holds, you can be sure he will continue to channel the infinite energy that surrounds us into every facet of his life.
Clark
Clark can be counted as one of the true visionaries and pioneers of the UK electronic music scene. From his groundbreaking 2001 debut, Clarence Park, Clark’s work has been characterised by delivering evocative and unexpected sonic odysseys, filled with glowering techno, brittle piano pieces, eerie folktronics, and found sounds.
Rival Consoles
One consistent element in Ryan Lee West’s musical journey has been his desire to create a more organic, humanised sound. Through developing processes of experimentation with found sounds and instruments, as well as visual ways of imagining and planning his compositions, he aims to create unique musical structures that sound unlaboured, stripped down and have a great sense of sonic space throughout them.
