Hosted by Reethaus in collaboration with Soneiro

On November 24th, Reethaus will host an immersive, spatialized listening experience of Soneiro’s debut album ATTUNE.

Visitors will have the opportunity to experience ATTUNE through a 360-degree spatial sound system by Wax programmed in partnership with the pioneering spatial sound collective Monom.

The Reethaus is a space for radical presence. With its hand-thatched reed roof, monastic cement interiors, in-built 360-degree spatial sound system and an opening in the ceiling that connects the space to the sky, the space was designed for profound encounters—with arts, with ideas and with each other.

Attune is a richly orchestrated tone poem in which the listener is submerged in a soundscape teeming with portals. Soneiro Collective’s roots in cultural research allow it to combine two canons of sonic tech with very different etiologies: the South American technologies of rattle, drum, and flute — for millennia employed to entrain consciousness — and the avant-garde practice of spatial sound engineering as crafted at MONOM.

The three movements of Attune are intended to provide a scaffolding for three psychic operations: first, the achievement of coherence with the world as a living being; second, the grasping of a deep root within individual consciousness; and third, a vast expansion outwards to participate in a dream of the future in which everything is included. The architecture of the Reethaus becomes one more ceremonial device supporting these fluxes.

In Attune, sound is a landscape you can enter. Composed around an active altar, its scenes contain the timeless experience of the human body in the world: shells being blown like horns off the side of a mountain, people gathering around the light of a fire to raise voice.
