As closing act for KEEP.SPACE.FEST tomorrow night, Uncloud invites Annebel b2b Ambu Bambu 💿

Annebel and Ambu Bambu come together in a back-to-back that thrives on musical curiosity and boundary-pushing selections. Layering harmonies, rhythms, and emotional storytelling into an energetic whole, they move fluidly between IDM, leftfield techno, UK-inspired breaks, bass, dubstep, jungle, and dubbed-out club sounds. Both known for a genre-fluid approach and a taste for the unexpected, they create immersive soundscapes that are urgent and rhythmic, blurring genres while remaining strikingly cohesive.

KEEP.SPACE.FEST will begin with a special performance on the outside stage of De Nijverheid, by Puck and Sou

The duo treats sonic making as a process of interaction, something that emerges through relating and responding with movement and uncertainty in the realm of modular synthesis. They bring together two practices rooted in listening, improvisation, and live electronic performance, where music lives in the space between body and machine.
Alongside the modular system, Puck Wacki works with guitar strings and electromagnetic activation, bringing physical resonance into the electronic soundscape. Instruments are patched, probed, and drawn into response, creating a performance that takes shape as a feedback loop through the negotiation between the body’s organic clock and the internal time of the systems.

During KEEP.SPACE.FEST, Uncloud invites producer, composer and sound researcher Lacuna

Working across soundsystem-driven club music, experimental electronics, and archival sound practices, Lacuna builds from archival recordings of Kashmiri folk and classical music from the 1980s and 90s. On Friday, 11 September at De Nijverheid he presents Saz-e-Yaad: the live performance approaches Kashmiri music as a fragmented archive shaped by political rupture, migration, oral histories and recordings that have survived in incomplete and unstable forms. These recordings are rebuilt into a live composition in altered and unexpected forms.
