Forthcoming shows featuring the same performers:
‘On her exhilarating Hyperdub debut, the London electronic musician slathers on processed vocals in thick, inky layers, breaking feverishly free of the rhythmic grid.’ Pitchfork
‘Klein catches the ear with wordless, almost inhuman fragments, recalling Burial in the way she taps into a well of feeling that goes beyond words.’ Resident Advisor
‘The South London composer, singer and sound collagist is one of the most intriguing figures in electronic music right now.’ Resident Advisor – Read the full feature here.
Composer and playwright Klein is an artist who’s neoteric vision won her an Oram Award in 2017 and who has quickly become one of the UK’s most intriguing and unpinnable producers and performers.
She uses collagist techniques to assemble recordings of her own vocals and instrumentation into unique soundscapes with references ranging from Mythology to Pavarotti and the very ideology of the defunct TV network, ‘Trouble’.

North London native & new Hyperdub signing Loraine James is an electronic artist/producer (influenced by artists such as Aoki Takamasa, Telefon Tel Aviv and Toe) with a lot of promise and already a wealth of material. A master at crafting organic textures through inorganic means, she effortlessly blends Electronica and Math rock with whispers of jazz and post-rock all wrapped up in the artists key avant-garde aesthetic and sensibility.
With a minimal use of equipment Loraine crafts truly breathtaking textures from relatively simple means, armed only with a Macbook, a MIDI Keyboard and Novation Launchpad – Loraine transcends any technological constraints to make anything from ambient off-kilter beats to four to the floor vocal-sample driven techno/house.
Having released her debut album Detail in 2017, Loraine also featured as one of the winners at last year’s Oram Awards.

She has solo releases, remixes and collaborations on The Trilogy Tapes, Where To Now?, Hessle Audio, Boomkat Editions, PAN, Timedance, etc, as well as presenting mixes for FACT, NTS and recently a 15th Anniversary DJ mix for RVNG Intl.

💡 Luminate 💡
In this monthly series, we shine a light into the crucible of new music creation today, revealing exhilarating cross-currents in sound and style.
From contemporary orchestral composition to shimmering electronic sound worlds, musical expression is becoming less defined by genre, more framed by its emotional and cultural contexts.
Luminate taps into this bold, exploratory landscape in a series of shows that will provoke and inspire.
