A set table. Rhythmic heartbeats. A transcending electronic pulse. Earthy scents. The room is blurred. Everything feels soft. Now, the master of the ceremony steps forward. Someone is chanting. You are connected to everyone. And now you shall die. To be reborn.

With inspiration from myths, rituals and traditions, participants are invited on a trance-like trip that examines and challenges the relationship between music, musicians, and audience.

Et dækket bord. Rytmiske hjerteslag. Et transcenderende beat. Her dufter af jord. Rummets grænser er udviskede. Alt føles blødt. Nu træder ceremonimesteren frem. Nogen chanter. Du er ét med alle. Og nu skal du dø. For at genfødes.
APOLLONIAN BLACKOUT er et konstant udviklende musikalsk live-værk. En totaloplevelse, der forener koncert, installation og performance. Med inspiration fra myter, ritualer og traditioner inviteres deltagerne med på en trancelignende rejse, som udfordrer forholdet mellem musik, musikere og publikum. Lydbilledet er bygget op af en blanding af elektroniske og akustiske lyde. Det er repetitivt; en lille melodistump, der varieres, drejes og sendes i kredsløb.
APOLLONIAN BLACKOUT har det transatlantiske ensemble Hess Is More, med den danske multi-instrumentalist Mikkel Hess i spidsen, som omdrejningspunkt. Den musikalske oplevelse iscenesættes af Mikkel Hess, Tue Biering, Christian Friedländer, Dicki Lakha, mens kostumerne skabes af designer Henrik Vibskov.
