Provocative performance electronica

Since making a bold entry into the international music community, Yves Tumor has subverted expectation and challenged established musical norms at every turn. In 2018, he progressed with the widely acclaimed Safe In The Hands Of Love, which found him exploring the limits of his songwriting and tonality even further on the iconic Warp Records. Now touring in support of the album, Tumor will make his highly anticipated Japanese debut for this special event at Contact.

Alongside Tumor, Machìna will be performing a live set that fuses her distinctive vocals with modular synthesis in a striking deconstruction of electronica, RnB and more besides. Aya Gloomy will also present her delicate, fractured approach to musical storytelling, drawing on traditional instrumentation channeled through dreamy, lo-fi timbres. Meanwhile on the Contact floor Compuma takes control with his expansive approach to gritty, underground noise and techno.

With a rich variety of approaches to live performance and the broad possibilities of electronic music production, this is truly a line-up of unbridled sonic adventure.
