Red Bull Music Academy never do anything half heartedly. As their hallowed Academy is taking London by storm, they are bringing back the art of collaboration: celebrating music talents old and new, lining up a myriad of innovative events and even putting together a daily music newspaper distributed at tube stations, venues and record shops. It’s with this same passionate spirit that we’ll be teaming up with them for a very special run of quarterly events.

To kick things off proper, on 10 March Fabric/RBMA will be transporting Flying Lotus’ Brainfeeder family from Los Angeles’ underground to our own Farringdon, Room One basement. Once a RBMA participant himself (Melbourne, 2006), Flying Lotus will be bringing his much lauded hyperkinetic live show to the stage, alongside an immense collective of likeminded musical revolutionaries.

All descriptions of a Brainfeeder session reflect a similar notion - it’s something that has to be experienced firsthand to really be understood. Holding down the grand Downtown Independent movie theatre for their LA takeovers - and occasionally crossing European borders for other adventures - the Brainfeeder crew takes each show deep into the most unexpected of places; smashing expectations and bassbins simultaneously with a sultry force and a seldom seen kind of improvised grace. A Brainfeeder showcase is a full-on audio visual assault, matching imagistic explorations with each unique artist’s explosively picturesque soundworlds.

Fuelled by his usual bold artistic motives, Flying Lotus has decided to throw all of the artists on one stage, packing the bill tightly with rapid, intense sets. Pushing creativity to the forefront, expect energy unparalleled - and uninterrupted - for six hours straight. With a lineup that serves as a veritable snapshot of the electronic music world, especially the enthralling beats-oriented movement rising out of LA, the RBMA/Brainfeeder session at fabric will be more than just a show; it’ll be a wild, next-level fusion of beats, sounds, visuals, styles, imaginations and art.

Expect an experience like no other and this is just a warm-up for the release of Daedelus’ new mini-album to be released on Brainfeeder, The Righteous Fists Of Harmony (review HERE soon).

“The Brainfeeder London show will be some essential shit for anyone who’s into the future sound. We’re blessed to be throwing the party at fabric of all places. It’s easy to say it will be a night that people will talk about for a very long time.” - Flying Lotus

“The Brainfeeder family is like the Muppets - everyone’s a unique character with a unique sound - yet it all interlocks with each other in some way, shape or form (and GLK = Animal).” - Martyn

“The line up for this Brainfeeder event at fabric is unbelievable; every artist is bringing something different. I don’t think we will see a roster like this ever again.” - Nosaj Thing
