Mag ik in uw oorschelp frummelen? w/ KOU, Val Clipp, Rutger Zuydervelt & Gonçalo Almeida
Programmed by Sanneke Kleingeld
Poster design by Linus Bonduelle
For fans of: Tara Clerkin Trio, electro-acoustics, Hydra Ensemble, cats purring, Battiato, Bongwater
An egg cracked open in my ear and birthed a sound so splendid all my limbs detached from my body
My knee went for a stroll along the harbour
My shoulder took a dive into the dirty river by the hill
My hips swayed their way downtown
They grasped without purpose
They touched without sensation
A void devoid of intention or longing to be filled
Sound to divide,
silence to reunite.
KOU is the music project of Apolline Schöser and Thomas Coquelet, based in Lille/France.
Since 2020, they're exploring song compositions :
- making concrete music into lullabies,
- playing fluffy guitars with the strings of a rope walker
- drowning jazz and non-jazz voices
- humming flutes with purring synths
- smoking piano stokes
- steeling giallo's cries to make them dance in almost groovy rhythms...
At a time of great deconstruction, one has the feeling of witnessing the birth of the music of a world after.

Gonçalo Almeida and Rutger Zuydervelt present ‘Eventual’.
Gonçalo Almeida is a Portuguese musician and composer with a strong interdisciplinary and collaborative approach to his work that ranges from modern jazz, freejazz, jazzcore to free improvisation music. Rutger Zuydervelt is active as both electronic musician/composer and graphic designer. Oftenly operating under the alias Machinefabriek, Rutger’s live performances setup is mostly analogue, using oscillators, cassette players, contact mics and effects panels to create -improvised- sonic environments.
‘Eventual’ is the first/debut album together. After having released two EPs, ‘Doze Ruinas’ and ‘Jangadas’, and being colleagues in Hydra Ensemble (with cellists Lucija Gregov and Nina Hitz) their collective musical base has been marinating for some time, now erupting in a full length. The album was carefully constructed by Zuydervelt, using a sound bank of double bass recordings by Almeida. The result is a layered, long-form drone composition.
In concert though, both players will rely on their improvisation skills (on double bass, oscillators, and effects) to create a similar immersive experience.

Val Clipp is an alias of Luca van Grinsven (CH, NL). His audio-visual work explores contemporary life and hauntology through the means of sampling, documenting, vocalising and re-contextualising with an intuitive- and often pragmatic- approach.
He’s the founder of Off Center (2018–2022), focusing on collaborative music publishing and community building both on-and-offline.
