“CONTACT” - INDOOR PERCUSSION

Battery, sound design by Aya Strauss
Front ensemble by Kevin Tran

This show combines elements of outer space, ancient aliens, and exploration to tell a truly human story - one of reaching out and hoping that there’s anyone out there in the universe who can hear and understand you. The track “Touch” from Daft Punk’s 2013 album “Random Access Memories” is woven throughout the arrangement to create a haunting and unique identity for this show.

This show was the 2023 SCPA A Class Champion. Originally performed by Mira Costa HS.

This Porter Robinson-inspired show creates an ethereal and nostalgic soundscape. Evoking images of childhood and searching for a friend in the rain, the innocence and comfort of the piano and vocals, and the melodies of “Shelter” by Porter Robinson leads you on an emotional journey home.

Originally performed by Mira Costa HS, 2022 finalists in SCPA A class.
