One of the UK’s most influential creators of electronic music, Rival Consoles, returns with a brand new audio-visual live show, centred around his new album “Landscape from Memory” — marking a new chapter in an ongoing quest for refinement and evolution. Supporting artist is the Belgian sasja who’ll bring his A/V show created in collaboration with Ignaas Vancottem.

About Rival Consoles

London-based producer Ryan Lee West, better known under the name Rival Consoles, is notable for making synthesisers sound human and atmospheric. Over the course of a critically acclaimed eighteen-year career, his music has diversified from the challenging electronic output of his early EPs, to gradually becoming more conceptual and metamorphic with his albums.

In July 2025 Rival Consoles released his latest studio album ‘Landscape from Memory’ on Erased Tapes, and is presenting it with a brand new unique performance that will take the form of an immersive audio-visual experience in which he will present material from across the last 15 years of his career and beyond. From deep ambient works to his unique version of techno, and traversing the vast spectrum in between, the show will be a long-form narrative of ideas — many heard live for the first time — with visuals co-created and performed live by Sky Ainsbury.

About sasja

Under his own name ‘sasja’, Belgian musician/producer Sasja Maekelberg blends analog synths, field recordings, and crackling beats into rich, impressionistic soundscapes. Add his distinctive voice and the result is haunting: a unique sound that feels cinematic, danceable and intimate.

During live shows, the story is elevated as the music resonates and spills over into accompanying visuals. Built from video field recordings and studio footage, this set is the result of thorough research and careful selection by visual artist Ignaas Vancottem and Sasja himself, developed during a residency at VIERNULVIER. They’ve been inseparable ever since they crossed paths.
