audio-visual set
KBB invited these two Argentinean artists to perform an electronic music session, accompanied by perfectly synchronized projections, managing to resize the space transporting the audience to an emotional state full of subtleties.
The high level of experimentation of their work, together with its intrinsic complementarity, made this event a solid reference in terms of the sound line pursued by KBB.
