RAKANS

All-access pass to the entire MACHINE LIFE series.

Meticulous , complex, and eternal. 
Powerful, yet bound to be controlled.
Obtuse by design and recklessly strung together by imperfect hands. 
The user invokes desire with each gesture. 
The vibrational tone calls out and creates new pathways to a destination. 
A new purpose is discovered. 
A new era is born, giving life to machine .

Machine Life explores the relationship between human and machine in a club setting.  Each night an artist is curated to perform a live set alongside a compatible selector for an exploratory journey into sound.

The fifth and final installment of PR’s Machine Life series, a run of shows exploring the intersection of humans, machines and movement with both live electronic and dj sets, welcomes the visionary, Beirut-born artist Rakans for his US debut. Distinct and daring in his approach to making music, he folds tender elements of electronic eclecticism into hard-hitting techno for a sound that brings to mind the taut sensation of bodily pleasures. Helming the decks is local DJ and BOUND headmistress, Katie Rex. Advocating for the catharsis of dancefloor hedonism, her sets fuse industrial sonic landscapes with ceiling busting rave anthems and the harsher sides of techno.

Limited tickets will be sold at the door.
