19.15 - €5

Join us for the second edition of Tell Me More, an evening of femmtronic music, hosted at Dokzaal. Feast on two audio visual shows by Show Pony & lowkolos, dance in the atmosphere cafe basement to the dark set of Warr and unrelenting performance of COW Shift Z. We are also honoured to host a very special performance Nobody’s Free Until Everybody’s Free, an EP fundraiser for Gaza made by Mirthe van Popering & Honingbeer, with cover art by Palestinian visual artist Osama Hussein.

COW Shift Z (PT/NL) is a composer and performer of electronic music. Her practice focuses on integrating different music genres in her artistic language. Electronic dance music gives her the common ground to express her inner worlds and tell the stories with a free and experimental mindset. As a performer  she is interested in rhythm and groove puzzled with aggressive, industrial sounds. She is a creative programmer exploring new instruments that let her improvise with her own sound design and music intuition.

lowkolos (TR/NL, aka mert gençer) is an Amsterdam-based A/V artist and producer focused on crafting unique, immersive experiences. Drawing inspiration from ‘Musique Concrète’, he aims to bring novelty to music by breaking free from traditional composition methods, such as grids and metric measurements. His genre-bending productions feature narrative textures, computer processing, complex rhythms, and innovative sound design. When paired with his visuals, this fusion creates a dynamic and evolving experience that keeps audiences engaged and excited throughout his performances.

Show Pony (USA/NL) is the solo project of Amsterdam-based American double bassist and vocalist Laura Nygren. In her new audiovisual project, I May Fall into the Sound, created with Tatiana Rosa and Nina Kay, she uses a synthesizer to explore the erosion of the human body as a metaphor for our aging planet. The project focuses on the small eroding island of Massancumock, which is expected to disappear into the surrounding sea by 2026, near the area where Nygren grew up. Using beats, synths, strings, and text, Show Pony creates atmospheric landscapes—a world to get lost in. During live performances, she brings these landscapes to life for the audience through her immersive shows.

Warr (UK/NL) is an Amsterdam-based electronic music producer from East London, UK. Inspired by the more avant-garde avenues of dance music, Warr bridges dark and unconventional sound textures with raw, hypnotic techno grooves in their live and DJ sets.

This event is made possible by AFK (Amsterdam Fonds voor de Kunsten).
