Copper Sounds are an artist duo who use traditional and contemporary processes to explore the physical and visual nature of sound. They see sound as a malleable material and have a unique way of working with and manipulating sound, through designing and making sonic objects which they play live.

At the beginning of 2025, Copper Sounds spent two weeks in the house of Sonoscopia in Porto, developing mechanical instruments and collaborating in the basement with Sonoscopia’s resident musicians. Through countless improvised sessions they gradually shaped new music—constructing frames, experimenting with mechanisms, and refining their new sonic devices. These two weeks culminated in three dates across Porto; now Gustavo Costa and Henrique Fernandes of Sonoscopia join Copper Sounds for four live dates across the UK.

£6 early bird tickets are available until 12 April. Use code EARLYBIRD6 at the checkout.

About the artists

Copper Sounds are an artist duo who use traditional and contemporary processes to explore the physical and visual nature of sound. The objects they make tell the story of their process and act as markers of their journey of transforming raw material into sound. They started out as an experimental record manufacturer; making records out of materials such as copper, volcanic rock, chalk and ceramic. During extended live DJ sets they mix these different materials together to sculpt a dark, fractious and industrial dance floor energy.
