Ron Trent presents LA MARR w/ Pablo Color Live

Prepare for a musical education by one of the greats. Distilling the true, spiritual essence of house, Ron Trent is a pioneer of Chicago’s late-1980s scene. He rose to international prominence with his 1990 classic “Altered States,” a hypnotic cut that fused analogue warmth, cosmic atmospheres, and a meditative sense of groove, laying the blueprint for more expansive and immersive forms of house to follow. Decades later, his influence continues, including a Grammy-nominated remix of Soul II Soul and collaborations with artists such as Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, Tony Allen, and Moodymann. In 2025, Trent released Lift Off on Rush Hour – a decade-in-the-making album shaped by rich rhythms and finely detailed instrumentation. His live appearances are deeply special occasions, unfolding with unmatched feeling and flow.
