Kerrostalo / Block of Flats

Company Uusi Maailma/

Block of Flats is an open-minded fusion of acrobatics, parkour, music, light and dance.
The people in Block of Flats are drawn in-between waking and dreams. Sleep paralysis stalks the sleeper, a state where the mind is awake an a momentarily paralyzed body. Beautiful and delicate tones are haunted by anxious and nightmarish moods.

The music for Block of Flats is specially composed for the performance. The orchestra includes e.g. double bass, electric bass, percussion, violin, oboe and vocals. Musical influences come from different parts of the world and styles of music. Led by lopsided music reality gets distorted.
