Electronic music pioneer Jeff Mills returns to the Barbican with an innovative performance alongside the London Symphony Orchestra, showcasing his boundary-pushing artistry.

From shaping Detroit’s early techno scene to redefining electronic music’s intersection with art, film, and orchestration, Jeff Mills continues to push creative boundaries. A true innovator, he has performed worldwide, collaborating with jazz legends, symphonic orchestras, and prestigious art institutions. Mills’ performances are immersive and expansive, blending hypnotic beats, improvisation, and cinematic storytelling. Whether through cine-mixes, orchestral reworks, or electronic jazz fusion, his soundscapes transport audiences into visionary, futuristic realms. 

Jeff Mills joins the London Symphony Orchestra for a breathtaking fusion of electronic and symphonic music marking the 20th anniversary of The Blue Potential. Expect pulsating techno rhythms intertwined with orchestral grandeur in an immersive boundary-pushing soundscape.
