Says Tom Dale:

“I am excited to collaborate with WEN to create a piece that focusses solely on the core relationship between dancer and music. In WEN’s Ephem:era, the music is not too dense as he creates the outlines and structures of the music implying ‘full on’ tracks without actually filling them. There is so much space in here for dance to be made. WEN’s music is evoking and teasing without delivering the full-blooded whole, it is like Wen has almost created these tracks with dance in mind already. This new piece will be symbiotic to our solo SURGE. Both composers WEN and ITAL TEK, the composer for SURGE are on the same record label, and although very different, speak to the same on-trend vibe, bringing cohesion to my fascination of how digital meets dance in music and visuals”
