In June 2014, Goldie's seminal album Timeless was performed live by the Heritage Orchestra at the Royal Festival Hall. Goldie and the Heritage Orchestra expanded and reworked the tracks for full orchestra, band, choir, electronics, and guest vocalists especially for Meltdown Festival. The performance was conducted by Jules Buckley, and was the first time this seminal record has been performed with an orchestra. The Guardian named Timeless one of the fifty most significant events in the history of dance music - it is a truly landmark album.
Here's the official video, directed by Lyle Lindgren, of that momentous event:
Returning after a sell-out show at James Lavelle's Meltdown last year, drum and bass icon Goldie is back for another live orchestral performance of his most celebrated album, on Weds 22nd and Thurs 23rd July. Get your tickets here!
