GLITCHBITCH
There is a subtle difference between technological failure that puts the machine completely out of order, and a kind of failure that causes a malfunction only briefly. GLITCHBITCH embraces these imperfections.
Within her system, consisting of a cd player and the audio programming language SuperCollider, she seeks for digital disruption. This performance is an invitation to step inside an electronic otherworld, and listen to the sounds of a digital ecosystem.
Kaap de Goede Hoop
Gibson Houwer, Leo Meijer, and Joris Diks create layered live tracks using a mountain of electronics, loops, and synths—full of rhythm, noise, and kraut-inspired vibes. Expect warm analog tones, bubbling beats, and hypnotic repetitions that slowly build over time. They describe themselves as a collective of like-minded creators—not a band in the traditional sense, but a live machine that continuously generates something new. Anticipate a set that carries you along, letting you drift on a blend of electronics and human craftsmanship.
Môgô
Môgô started fooling around with tapes, FXs and drum machines about 20 year ago and over the years moved towards a sort of Kosmic ambient techno: “Oscillating between light and dark, between drone and noise on the one hand, and the more quiet ambient piano loops and field recordings on the other with electronics and danceable, but still dark techno. ‘Outer space’ music for ‘inner space’ moments of reflection.”
(Somersaulting Through Eternity LP review 2022). And started releasing CD-Rs, tapes and vinyl through Ducktape Records and also DJing and organizing shows with Alien Soundtracks.
Klangwaffe
Klangwaffe is an artist based in Utrecht, NL. He plays live techno with a modular system, hardware drum machines and a variation of hardware effects.
Coming from a more “conservative” background playing live instruments in bands, he found his love for electronic sounds and music in the depths of Berlin and Amsterdam, and visiting illegal rave parties.
