Future Ruins, a first-of-its-kind music festival in which film and television composers step out from behind the screen and onto the stage, will take place at the Los Angeles Equestrian Center on November 8.
It will feature genre heavyweights John Carpenter (Halloween, Escape from New York), Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross (Gone Girl, The Social Network), Danny Elfman (Batman, Edward Scissorhands), Claudio Simonetti’s Goblin (Suspiria, Dawn of the Dead), Kyle Dixon & Michael Stein (“Stranger Things”), and Howard Shore performing the score of David Cronenberg’s Crash.
The line-up also includes Cristobal Tapia de Veer (“The White Lotus,” Smile), Ben Salisbury & Geoff Barrow (Ex Machina, Annihilation), Hildur Guðnadóttir (Joker, “Chernobyl”)
, Isobel Waller-Bridge (“Fleabag”)
, Mark Mothersbaugh (Thor: Ragnarok, The Royal Tenenbaums), Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe (Candyman), Tamar-kali (Mudbound), Terence Blanchard (Inside Man, Primal Fear), Volker Bertelmann (All Quiet on the Western Front, The Old Guard), and Questlove presenting the score works of Curtis Mayfield (Superfly).
Set across three stages, Future Ruins is designed to feel thoughtful and immersive, bringing this music to light in an environment where it has never been heard before. Every artist is a headliner, each with their own specially curated moment.
Each artist is encouraged to take big swings and reimagine their work for a live audience. Ranging from electronic sets and live bands to orchestral performances, fans have the chance to experience live debuts from composers who rarely appear onstage.
Future Ruins tickets go on sale next Wednesday, May 21 at 12pm PT.
