Inaugural Crux Festival Releases Full Audiovisual Lineup And Programme

Crux, known for interactive electronic music and audiovisual (AV) events across the capital, has announced its inaugural Crux Festival on 13th and 14th April 2024 at Rich Mix arts centre in East London.

Attendees can expect a weekend of diverse electronic music and visual performance, as well as a rich tapestry of daytime activities including talks, Ableton workshops, and open-mic-style electronic music performance slots.

On Saturday 13th April, attendees will be treated to immersive audio experiences to boundary-pushing AV showcases, as the festival’s programme is carefully curated to captivate and inspire audiences of all backgrounds.

The event will open with a video projection mapping workshop from AV expert and electronic artist Dave Stitch. A thought-provoking panel discussion about the prominence of women in electronic music will also take place, and the excitement will continue as visionary innovator Toby Spark takes the stage to share 3D-reactive audiovisual app ‘Volta’ and the captivating story behind Fuel Records.

As the sun sets on Saturday night following performances from Kareem Samara, I Am FYA and Error CD, the energy will continue to soar with a high-octane afterparty plus appearances from Parallel Action, Polyop, Freddy Frogs and more.

Sunday’s schedule will focus on engagement, as well as performances from boutique production company The Light Surgeons, Ross Flight plus more.

An interactive workshop from DMLab (a space for disabled and non-disabled musicians and technologists) will offer attendees the chance to explore accessibility in electronic music, while audiovisual jam sessions will create an inclusive atmosphere, making everyone feel welcome to join in and contribute to the event’s vibrant energy.

Crux Festival, is set to be a culmination of a decade-long journey dedicated to pushing the boundaries of electronic music and visual performances. In a concerted effort to ensure accessibility, Crux Festival offers affordably priced tickets, with options ranging from full weekend passes at £23 to day passes at £10.
