Aman molli experimental: Exploration of audiovisual interventions in post-rebetiko era

By: börek - June 12th, 2024  Filed under: Muziek

Friday 14 June 2024, Aman molli experimental: Exploration of audiovisual interventions in post-rebetiko era. From 20:00.

Tradition has a tradition in change. This is how rebetiko, a type of Greek urban folk music came about from outcasts and workers as a form of expression around 1920s. In this open workshop we will focus on how to transform tradition by including new analog and digital elements in sound, tempo, lyrics, voice, visuals and compositional style, thus bringing tradition in underexplored territories. Bring your instruments, your ideas, and come to the session with an open mind!

By: börek - April 3rd, 2024  Filed under: Benefiet, Volkseten/Voku

Monday 22 April 2024, Benefit Voku for Greek Comrades legal costs. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

In April 2018 on the Greek island of Lesvos, a group of 200-300 fascists attacked a group of residents of the former Moria camp. The pogrom lasted all night, throughout the city centre of Mytilene. The police eventually evacuated the square but only after dozens were left injured, with Greek flags and fascist slogans plastered across the town. Before this, a group of comrades intervened to help those under attack and drive the fascists away. For this, they were arrested and then prosecuted on outrageous charges. Tonight’s benefit dinner goes towards supporting their ongoing legal costs. […Lees verder]
