Live Transmission – Joy Division Reworked

An orchestral cut-up take on the music and aesthetic of Joy Division, 'Live Transmission' is a collaboration between electronic musician Robin 'Scanner' Rimbaud, the avant-garde Heritage Orchestra conducted by Jules Buckley, a three-piece band consisting of members of Three Trapped Tigers and Ghostpoet, and visual artist Matt Watkins. The performance, which was commissioned for the 2012 Brighton Festival and now takes off for a UK tour, breaks down and reconstructs the songs of the iconic post-punk band for a full orchestra, accompanied by eye-stretching visuals based on Joy Division artwork.
