Evian Christ (b. Joshua Leary) is an Ellesmere Port-based musician, producer and music programmer. Initially finding recognition for his production contributions to albums by Kanye West and Travis Scott, and subsequently as the founder of the enduringly influential TranceParty event series, Christ’s recent years have seen him lead an idiosyncratic range of projects that enquire into the legacy of Trance in contemporary cultural life. Revanchist (2023), Christ’s debut album, explores the genre’s latent potential to evoke, beyond Euphoria, the fullest feeling of the Sublime.
Revanchist’s release marks the culmination of ideas first explored in The Trance War (1998—ongoing) (2015, ICA London) and Re:Load (2017, Moscow International Biennale) — a series of installations by Christ and long-time collaborator David Rudnick presenting a personal archive of Trance materials alongside original works which drew unlikely parallels between themes and imagery of loss, third-way neoliberalism, dogs, Ibiza Euphoria and the Greek government-debt crisis. This conceptual framework underpins the world of TranceParty. Remaining one of London’s most adventurous and popular clubnights ten years in, Christ’s programming at TP boasts early-career shows from the likes of Travis Scott, Bladee, Sophie, Arca, Yves Tumor, Bad Boy Chiller Crew, AG Cook, VTSS and countless other giants of contemporary electronic music, often in unlikely combinations with legendary acts from the golden eras of UK Dance.
