An evening full of sensational performances to celebrate the longest day of the year.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We will celebrate the beginning of summer with a special Interplanetary Night dedicated to solstice and the longest day of the year. Solo artists, duos, bands and DJs will push boundaries and cross borders with the help of organisations such as Space Is the Place and W.E.R.F. Records. The DJs of the Utrecht-based Keep It Moving crew will hold the evening together with dub, grooves and experiment. Featuring the following acts:
20:35-21:00 ADA RAVE SOLO
On this Solstice Night both Ada Rave and the duo Marta Warelis/Andy Moor will celebrate their new album releases on the Relative Pitch label from New York. Argentinean-born saxophonist Ada Rava is a well-known improviser in the Amsterdam scene. Her new solo album In Search of a Real World is a collection of sonic poems and images inspired by her own search for a reality that feels more tangible and less virtual than our present one.
21:20-22:00 SPOOK
Belgian bands SPOOK and Don Kapot are connected to W.E.R.F. Records, the label of the KAAP arts center, which has close ties to Space Is the Place. SPOOK has an allure of ‘free country’ or ‘post western’, combining sparse themes and intricate rhythms. The trio features Simon Segers (De Beren Gieren, Black Flower) on drums, Nicolas Rombouts (Ottla, Dez Mona) on double bass and Filip Wauters (The Wodads, BackBack) on pedal steel and guitar.
22:20-22:55 MARTA WARELIS/ANDY MOOR
Andy Moor is best known for his propulsive electric guitar playing in the Ex and Dog Faced Hermans. He has previously collaborated with Marta Warelis, a pianist who’s also based in Amsterdam and who has a strong preference for improvisation and experiment in all kinds of styles. On their new album Escape on Relative Pitch Records, repetitive rhythms rise and fall and deconstruct at any given time into wicked craze. It is their first album as a duo together.
23:10-23:55 DON KAPOT
Brussels-based power trio Don Kapot has been blowing minds at festivals with their blend of free jazz, afrobeat and krautpunk, full of samples and unusual rhythms. Their recent album I Love Tempo was produced by Greg Saunier, drummer of the American band Deerhoof. Don Kapot features Giotis Damianidis on bass, Viktor Perdieus on baritone saxophone and Jakob Warmenbol on drums.
