Redcat Presents ROBERT HENKE: MONOLAKE LIVE 10/3

In a special Monolake Live appearance at REDCAT, composer and sound shaper Robert Henke expands upon his legendary club-oriented shows to focus on the spaces between the rhythmic elements of his intensely percussive trademark sound. Subtle sonic details are brought to the forefront, and REDCAT's immersive surround-sound technology allows Henke to highlight the spatialization of this live performance, and manipulate the timbre precisely and/or radically. This one-night-only aural event will be held at the Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theater on Sunday, October 3, 2010 at 7:00 pm.

Known as the co-creator of the Ableton Live software and a revolutionary figure in dance/trance sound manipulation, Henke has transcended his roots in academic and technological sound research to influence contemporary club culture and create a body of work that is both extremely sophisticated and wildly popular worldwide. "Sound as full-spectrum embrace... blending elements of techno, dubstep, and ambient," raved Pitchfork of a previous Monolake Live appearance.
