For Radical Light, choreographer Salva Sanchis enters into dialogue with the music of Senjan Jansen and Joris Vermeiren. Under the name Discodesafinado, these two sound designers fuse minimal techno with experimental electronics, creating a wonderful pointillist palette of microsounds, both rhythmic and contemplative, incomprehensible and infectious.
Radical Light is a choreography built entirely around the musical concept of ‘pulse’. It is a straightforward dance, multilayered and unadulterated. In Radical Light dance and music flirt with each other while revolving around a common pulse. One hour of uncompromising sound and movement at 120 beats per minute.
