From the immersive experience designers behind Moonbathing, Loss><Gain return to Kings Place to present John Foxx’s Cathedral Oceans in full 360° sound, taking the audience inside the music to be bathed in sound.

John Foxx’s Cathedral Oceans was recently described by Fact mag as “a musical touchstone for the ages” and “a formative influence on everyone from Aphex Twin and Juan Atkins to Junior Boys and Clint Mansell”.

Originally released across three volumes in 1997, 2003 and 2005 respectively, the sonic concepts that underpin the Cathedral Oceans ambient trilogy found their genesis in Foxx’s childhood experience singing in a choir. “During that time I became very interested in the way that sound worked in big spaces, churches particularly… I was really inspired by the juxtaposition of old style church music with modern technology and synthesizers creating notional space, rather than real space.”

Grand and uncompromising, Cathedral Oceans is finally taking its place at the altar of ambient music.

Cathedral Oceans has been spatialised by Stroud-based immersive experience designers Loss><Gain (David Sheppard and John Best) for d&b Soundscape, who collaborated with John Foxx to create an abridged version of the ambient trilogy.

This event will last approximately 1 hour.
