MYSTERYBLOC: KARL BARTOS - live audiovisual performance.
Professor Karl Bartos (born 31st May 1952) was an original member of Kraftwerk's 'classic' lineup from 1975 to 1991.
He is credited as a song-writer on the albums Man-Machine, Computerworld and Electric Café and singles Radio-Activity, Trans Europe Express, The Man Machine, Computer World, Tour de France, Electric Cafe and The Mix: some of modern music's most significant and influential works.
This solo performance is comprised of a magnificent full live audiovisual show. He will be joined on stage by Mathias Black and Robert Baumanns performing in perfect harmony with the machines he has helped to create. His stage show is an awe-inspiring set of big screens, projections and futuristic lighting that has been chartered in a special land transport from his home country of Germany.
We are thrilled and honoured to be hosting this rare UK performance from a true legend of electronic music.
