MONOM partners with Mastery on February 14th - World Sound Healing Day. Taking over Saal 1 at Funkhaus, to celebrate the release of the visionary album ‘Quantum Sound’, out on Houndstooth on Feb 12. For listening with eyes closed…
Part One:
The programme opens with a 60 minute holographic listening experience - the continuous mix Quantum Sound Journey. Opening with Bliss Code 000 - a 15 minute piece where sound healing instrumentals meet modular synthesis, blending into ambient and transcendental tracks by Hannah Holland, Djrum, Alessandro Cortini, Wata Igarashi, Manami, Jennifer Loveless & Ruthlss. An all encompassing audio experience, spatialised in 4DSOUND by MONOM. Emerging from this all-encompassing audio experience, we bring you live performances by Monom co-founder William Russell, with his surreal live show blending piano with the sounds of natural phenomena, followed by London-based artist Ruthlss and her live set fusing electronics and piano.
Part Two:
After a short interval, attendees will join for a playback listening session of ‘Jon Hopkins – Embodiment Breathing’ (with Fearne Cotton). This twenty-minute breathwork piece opens the vinyl edition of the album, and will be spatialized by MONOM in 4DSOUND, marking a key energetic moment in the night. When the audience emerges from the embodying breathwork practice, Jon Hopkins takes over with a longform piano improvisation, with Maddie Ashman on cello, live effects and vocals, and Leo Abrahams on guitar. With the breathwork having prepared both the performers and the listeners, the music will be experienced in a more open, unboundaried state. For listening with eyes closed…
