live at Tonalism 07.19.08 Live Performance

This installment of Tonalism was a legendary happening produced by dublab andSASSAS in the
summer of 2008. It took place in the historic Looff Hippodrome carousel
building on the Santa Monica Pier as a part of the all night GLOW Festival sponsored by the City of Santa Monica.
Inspired by La Monte Young’s “Dream House” as well as the work of
musicians and composers such as Terry Riley, Yoko Ono and John Cage,
dublab’s recurrent Tonalism series combines harmonious textures with
visual elements to create an atmosphere where the audience is
encouraged to bring pillows, cushions and sleeping bags to lay down,
listen and watch for an extended period of time. DJs, live musicians
and VJs play and perform throughout the night; starting at sunset (6
PM) and ending at sunrise (6 AM).
White Rainbow’s
performance was a hypnotic highlight of the happening. Some folks spun
by on the carousel as others lay down and drifted in awe. So beautiful.
