Please note: this is the rescheduled event of the concert that would originally take place on Saturday, October 28, 2023. Ticket holders received an email with more information. The live show will now be part of a club night fully curated by Evian Christ.

Evian Christ is set to make a triumphant return to Parallel, this time gracing us with a live concert to celebrate the imminent release of his debut album, Revanchist (2023). This performance will delve deep into the latent potential of trance music, aiming to evoke not just euphoria but the most profound sense of the sublime. Stay tuned for an exciting announcement as Evian Christ curates a special lineup for the event; featuring Elusin (live), Torus and Woesum.

In 2022, the world was introduced to Revanchist with an unforgettable headline performance at Primavera's L'Auditori. Now, Revanchist: Live promises to be an expansive audio-visual experience that delves into the album's core musical and visual concepts. Collaborating with the visionary lighting designer Emmanuel Biard, this project represents four years of intensive research and development. It culminates in the Longinus array, a custom-built, heat-compressed 12-meter fresnel screen boasting twenty-four high-power LED projectors, a unique mounting system, and optical-grade bounce mirrors. The resulting lighting effects are nothing short of awe-inspiring and must be witnessed to be fully appreciated.

A word of caution: Evian Christ's performance, in keeping with his unwavering technical demands, will be supported by an overwhelming 15kw of relentless xenon strobe lighting and arena-grade smoke machines. As such, this show may not be suitable for individuals with photosensitive epilepsy.

His latest A/V project 'These Cars Do Not Exist' is a 24:24 video piece in collaboration with Mark Prendergast consisting of looping choir samples and scattered midi sequences is exhibited in both art and club contexts such Institut fuer Zukunft online art platform Balance Festival, and Fiber, Amsterdam.

In the club, Torus pushes dance music to the very edge of itself. Where his recent output has been distinctly melancholic and ambient, his Djing renders a headier, maximalist approach. Cleanly dissecting scenes and reconstructing them into reimagined contexts to radically alter their social function. His technical approach offers a framework in which to explore the emotional and personal aspects of sound intuitively.
