About this Event

We’re incredibly excited to be bringing Ulrich Schnauss back to Oxford in 2016 along with extra special visuals from Nat Urazmetova.



Ulrich Schnauss has been known to veer from techno to drum and bass via electronica, his music combines multilayered synthesizers with beats and ethereal vocals, serving as an aural escape route from the trappings of reality. His sound is a lush instrumentation, elegant and simple creating beautiful, diverse music.



Today, Schnauss expresses a renewed interest in more direct electronic sounds, and aims to substitute traditional verse – chorus – verse structures for more freeform atmospherics. Stripping back the orgiastic excess of multi – layered instrumentation, he is currently working on an album which intends to celebrate the synthesizer, the long-time cornerstone of Schnauss’s sound – as a musical instrument in its own right.



“A deep sense of introspection initiated via a soundtrack of delicate beauty” BBC



“ A step forward for electronic music” POP MATTERS



KID KIN



Kid Kin, the solo instrumental project of Oxford's Peter Lloyd, provides a creative mixture of precise electronica and vast guitar-driven soundscapes.. His debut album, released in 2013, quickly gained positive press and airplay on BBC 6Music and BBC Oxford, with the latter selecting him to play their annual showcase in conjunction with Oxford Contemporary Music. A string of shows followed, including slots at the annual Oxford Punt showcase ("easily the loudest set of the night" - Nightshift), Threshold Festival (Liverpool), Audioscope with Public Service Broadcasting, and a support slot for Californian loop-masters El Ten Eleven, showcasing Kid Kin's impressive one-man show featuring live guitar, sampling and looping techniques.



Kid Kin's latest release, Holy Youth EP, showcases the ambitious range of Kid Kin's music.
