LIVE by Eli Keszler
LIVE - Is a double album containing high definition live recordings by renowned percussionist, composer and artist Eli Keszler from Sonar Festival in Barcelona on 18/6/22 and from his performance at Pace Gallery, Manhattan on 20/10/2023 as part of a collaboration with acclaimed audiovisual artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer.
The recording catches the true mastery of an Eli Keszler performance. Snatches of tracks from his Icons and Stadium albums are recontextualised within a free flowing and improvised percussion set. With textures and tones overlapping constantly the music moves between intoxicating moments of serenity and passages of movement and tension. Having recently collaborated with Skrillex on the track ‘A Street I Know’ and more music from Eli due to be released in 2023 LIVE is an exciting taste of what is to come.
"Percussion really is a vehicle for me, a means to an end, and how long I will continue to do solo music of this nature I don't know... It's really something that happens live in front of people and that's when it comes to life"
LIVE is released digitally and on limited edition cassette with extensive liner notes from the artist - May 19th 2023
