Friday 14th July | 7pm | £10 / £7 conc advance tickets

A night of experimental dance music, ambient, electro acoustic chaos and joy! Two unique and talented voices in experimental electronic production and performance.

Ondness

We are delighted to welcome one of Lisbon’s freshest and prolific producers to the stage! Bruno Silva's - aka Ondness aka Serpente aka many other aliases! He will be touring the UK - last summer when he played cafe Oto in London and got in touch, we missed the boat ! Not this time!

He describes his sound as “ a speculative threshold where refracted dance movements, dub's sense of space, tangents to hauntology and what if possibilities converge in an unresolved hallucinatory mash up”

Boom Kat say ‘Silva takes jackhammer drums and places them alongside new age synthetics, forming a swaying mix of textures that play against each other - the winding tense pop from the drums falling in-and-out of time creates a willfully psychedelic tension with Silva's woozy digital synths’
