Discovering the experimental ambient vein of British DJ Lee Gamble. Born in the world of sound design and influenced by genres such as jungle, dubstep and techno, his art explores the boundaries between abstraction and rhythm, with a particular interest in the intersection of music and psychoacoustics. Remarkable is his creative use of sampling. He often draws on ambient recordings, old jungle tracks or digital glitches to construct a sonic universe that is on the one hand familiar, on the other alienating.
The first part features the Milan debut of Leafcutter John (John Burton), at the crossroads of experimental electronic music and acoustic composition. Burton has developed a career as a musician, sound designer and multimedia artist, exploring sound techniques that fuse traditional instruments and digital processes. His music is characterised by a wide variety of timbres, textures and atmospheres, ranging from the intimacy of folk music to the abstraction of glitch music. This eclectic approach has made him one of the most innovative and unpredictable artists on the contemporary electronic scene. He takes a keen interest in live performance, using tactile controllers and hand-built instruments, creating dynamic and engaging sets that mix improvisation and composition.
