For the first time in Amon Tobin’s career, he is now capable of delivering a truly groundbreaking visual experience that matches the scale of his renowned musical explorations. The avant-garde producer has, for now, stepped away from previous DJ-centric performances, and developed an entirely unique large-scale live show that expands on the concepts behind his most recent body of work: his seventh full-length studio album, ‘ISAM’. Re-drawing and blurring the lines between psychedelia and sci-fi, between art and entertainment, between sound design and melody,  Tobin created his finest, most intense work yet with ISAM Live. Truly a crowning achievement for a process that he describes as “re-ordering the things around me.”

 

ISAM Live, the spectacular audio-visual experience that stunned the world in 2011 will return with some new looks in 2012 with an even more ambitious and stimulating global tour. Having just headlined at the Coachella Festival, catching the ears and eyes of the likes of Billboard, Rolling Stone, Spin, and MTV, the show will spend the rest of the year bouncing back and forth between UK/Europe, Australia, the US and Canada. Highlights include stops at the Greek Theatre (LA & Berkeley), a two-night stint at Chicago’s Congress Theatre, and a return to New York (having sold out three nights in a row on the last tour) for a show at Hammerstein Ballroom. Additions include a newly added San Diego and Orlando appearance as well as a Camp Bisco.

 

In addition to this massive tour accomplishment, June 4th sees the release of the recently announced 6×10” 7xCD 2xDVD box set of rare and unreleased material including ISAM Live footage.
