When I first heard tracks like ‘Similar Familiar’ and ’Out Is In’ by Berlin-based Lea Porcelain, I was completely blown away. Taking the modern sounds of electronic music and fusing it with a culmination of styles including post-punk, indie and more, I was completely addicted to their recordings. Imagery of dark music venues, performance art and late night studio sessions would pop up in my head as the music completely took over me. So when I read that Lea Porcelain was performing at O’Meara in South East London, I jumped on the train and headed over. Like the pictures in my head, their performance filled with flashing lights flying among the dark silhouettes of the band whilst their practically perfect to the recordings sound pulsed through the venue, was everything that I needed and more.

The abundance of scaffold and trussing that makes up the structure is also a production designer’s dream. As a result, Generator will provide an all-round spectacle that will include an enormous all-encompassing and multi-dimensional wall of LED screens at the stage end, not to mention an abundance of lights, lasers, and pyro that will span the length and breadth of the structure. Once again, the bar has been raised, with Generator proving that when it comes to pushing the limits of what is possible, Creamfields remains way ahead of the curve.
