Close your eyes and take a deep breath: can you smell the gum leaves?

Tension//Relief is a place to seek solace, a medicinal space to pause and recover while in the midst of an ongoing crisis.

With safety, kindness and welcome at its centre, Tension//Relief invites audiences into an atmosphere of ambient music combining acoustic and textural electronic elements. In this new collaboration, composer Corin Ileto and multi-instrumentalist Diimpa explore the sonic possibilities opened up by prepared piano and other experiments in music-making.

This is a sound bath to relax back into.
