An exclusive stream of the electronic duo's 'Carter Tutti Play Chris & Cosey' live set
We are very happy to present a stream of Chris & Cosey's live set recorded on the 12th June on the Red Bull Music Academy SónarDome stage at the Sónar festival in Barcelona.
As the duo explained in their Q&A with theartsdesk, this set represents the drawing to an end of the series of shows that they've done re-imagining their Chris & Cosey songs of the 1980s and 1990s in the tougher electronic style of their more recent Carter Tutti guise - while also providing a look forward to a Carter Tutti Play Chris & Cosey studio album which will be their next release before moving on to new phases of their creative career.
As this suggests, though they have been working together for over 40 years, they have never rested on their laurels. Their Sónar performance saw them sandwiched between young electronic acts gathered from RBMA alumni, yet able to keep the party-loving crowd intensely engaged with their dark and strange songs.
