KREATURES
Animatronics Meets Bass - a one off high tech, electronic music, film, art, party. Bringing together incredible ultra realistic animatronics, cutting edge electronic music, innovative performance and state of the art visuals – this is a night for the Kreatures by the Kreatures.
UKs hottest animatronics talents - John Nolan, Gustav Hoegen and Josh Head have designed an entourage of ultra-realistic animatronic Kreatures to be perfectly synced to live music performances. Having designed and built animatronics for everyone from Chris Cunningham to Spike Jonze to Terry Gilliam and Guillermo Del Toro, their skill and vision is recognised by some of the most creative people on the planet.
For Kreatures they will work with pioneering audio / visual designer Jude Greenaway, revolutionary dance theatre director Darren Johnston and innovative UK artist Schoony to create a synthesis of music and machine - creating a one-off interlinked, living, breathing installation where the walls literally have eyes.
Music for the night will centre around three next level electronic music producers -Starkey, Untold and Milanese - who will produce exclusive sets to drive the animatronics. Fresh off of releasing his second studio album to critical acclaim and winning him album of the Month in DJ magazine - Starkey will be playing his first live set in over two years which promises to blow minds. Milanese will be using Kreatures as a stage to do an exclusive last ever set in the UK - Milanese the Planet Mu and Warp master electronic technician is giving up producing bass music to concentrate on his passion - computer game sound design. He is planning to do a best of set mashing up all his releases over the years - if you've never seen him perform before - this maybe your last chance. Man of the moment Untold is doing a special Kreatures style dirty/tech set which will get the party jumping and the Kreatures pumping - the Hemlock label chief will be unleashing his unique brand of forward thinking bass music on the Kreatures to devastating effect. Syncing the animatronics live to the music from these performances will provide a spectacular centre piece for this one off event.
All the Kreatures will be interconnected and driven by the music. Motors will be converted from analogue to midi using circuitry – a kick-drum could open a mouth, a keyboard operate a tongue…as the night goes on the music and the machines will get darker, deeper and generally more messed up…
For the audience it will be a genuinely unforgettable night – a totally immersive experience full of bizarre surprises and unexpected events. Coupled with the animatronics will be live projections of the Kreatures, bespoke VJ sets, theatrical set design and performers to completely transform the space and create a visionary world where the boundaries of sound, film and special-FX blur.
