Ash Fure - ANIMAL (2024)

Ash Fure’s ANIMAL works on the body like techno acupuncture: floods of sub-bass meet sprays of sonar clicks, washes of white noise coat the walls like weather, and Fure's live performance whips it all around the space from a self-built rig that moves sound and light at once. Visceral, athletic and intrinsically live, ANIMAL is a feast for the senses that puts the sweat back into sound.
