- Watch an hour-long excerpt of Circle Of Live's performance at Freerotation 2018 on UA-cam.
Circle Of Live is a roving electronic jam led by the Swedish techno artist Sebastian Mullaert. It aims to break down the rigid structures of electronic performance, linking artists and their machines for something collaborative, open-ended and utterly improvised. The players, a rotating cast that can number as many as 14 at one time, follow Mullaert into a fluid volley of musical ideas, jumping in when they have something to add, the rest of the time hanging back and listening. At some point-maybe an hour or two into the set, maybe longer-a kind of lift-off is achieved: the artists find themselves in a state of drift, being led by the music more than the other way around, like a planchette across a Ouija board.
"There was one moment in the night when everyone sort of looked up and looked at each other in shock almost," Johanna Knutsson said of their first performance. "It really felt like we all talked with each other but just through music. We all talked about it afterwards and we all felt it."
That debut performance happened last summer at Freerotation, the small festival at Baskerville Hall in Wales. Mullaert, stood behind a spread of gear worthy of a NASA cockpit, was joined by Knutsson, Alexander Berg (better known as Dorisburg), minimal luminary Mathew Jonson, and Freerotation cofounders Steevio and Suzybee. As dusk fell on the hills outside, their rhythms ebbed and flowed for a crowd that stayed with them through the final note, which sounded some six hours after the first.
Circle of live is a magical performance. It is natural and the sounds are unique, robust and organic. This music is ALive, it has passion and you can feel it on the dance floor. Bravo Sebastian for orchestrating such orchestra of quality music and artists. You are all an inspiration to Electronic music.
Sebastian Mulleart is a pure genius. All his different sounds and music concepts as Minilogue, Son Kite and now these 5 hour long Cercle Of Live jams. One of the most talented Swedish electronic artists.
Only if they could bring in Prince of Denmark/Traumprinz to their group... Then I would die a happy man having seen him perform in such a special collaboration.
I CAN AGREE with that, them is the best of the best in my opinion. I LOOOVE GIEGLING!
Another level of music , another galaxy of sounds
Just saw this at Movement and it was hands down the best set of the weekend imo. Super inspiring. Big ups to Sebastian Mullaert for making this happen!
You guys are revolutionising techno. Incredibly creative and human work. Respects!
Next level electronic music in my opinion
Man, that closing track by Mathew though...
just magic. can´t stop listening to it.. it´s recommended to buy their release coming out of this session at Freerotation
one word: magic
This set is life !!!
Demasiada MAGIA Y PODER. Puedo ver mil veces este live y cada vez LO AMO MÁS!
sick visuals, love the jam session sounds!
Masters at play!
there should be more things like this, live electronic music, and not just DJ-ing.
There always is. Support your local underground artists, every soul matters! :D
@@nuowo5285 you are right! btw. nice live sets you have on your channel :-)
@@RandomNoise cheers, fellow musician. Actually saw one of your videos in the past, awesome shots and great music. keep it up! ;)
@@nuowo5285 Thanks man :-)
there is alot of live performances every weekend
Never seen something like this loveee it
Two months later, excellent again.
Yeah this is what happens when legends meet, in case anybody wondered.
There's something magical about watching talented people vibe together.
I'd love to do a thing like this with local electronic musicians but I know they would not have the sensibilities needed. Shame.
@@girlinagale It's true that open jams can get chaotic when the musicians are not used to being in a band. But it can work if you have someone who's in charge of the central mixing board and can act like a conductor to make room and movement.
Yes, otherwise it can be like an orchestra without a conductor. When I play it's what I leave out as much as what I put in that works, leave a space in a communal jam and someone jumps in to fill it.
STEEEEEEVIO
Terrific, sublime, magnifique
Fantastic !
so good!! xx
Love these guys , Especially Sebastian
This is real techno
Great 👍
♥♡╰╮Ilove this performance ╰╮♡♥
This is great!
this is so good
Excellent.
There should be like a message board for people that are looking for others to jam with. I would love to jam with other musicians, but i just move to new city and i really don't know a lot of synthheads yet, anyway would be nice.
I followed ✅
Magnifico!!!!
So futurist
Music was great, but the visuals were on another level, anyone agrees?
Does anyone know the visual artist name?
Suzybee
thankyou !!!
@@suzybeeMINDTOURS Really amazing stuff! What's the first step in creating stuff like this - genuinely inspiring, would love to start looking into it. First set of visuals I've seen that don't feel like they're just there to be there. Truly feels like an addition to the performance.
@@scout3031 Agreed!! The fact that they're handrawed adds so much character. I really loved every part of Suzybee's performance
@@suzybeeMINDTOURS ¡¡Thankyou so much!!
always is smart some healthy food close to the mixer,good job mathew jonson
Go Johanna :)
Wow!!!
that rolling groove @ 21:00 yeahhhhh !!
Steevio chords at ~44 min
any ideas what dorisburgs machine is making the bass hits around 24 minutes
I think it's a Buchla Music Easel
anyone know what they use for bassline?
Serious moment at 27:00
Amazing - thank you for this! Does anyone know of anywhere besides Freerotation where it would be possible to see these guys/girls live?
