We change gears to a higher tempo, as we dedicate an entire night to drum and bass. We’ll explore the genre from multiple angles: the atmospheric textures of intelligent drum and bass, the hypnotic pull of minimal and techy rollers and the grit of halftime and jungle. We present a meeting of new talent and masters in the scene, with MiesFM and Seven-Headed alongside Jesh and a heavy-hitting B2B with Nymfo & Zohar.
Cutting-edge sonics as the shifting of storms. Percussive and pulsating, Zohar is known for a razor-sharp and highly dynamic club-signature. With years of formative experience controlling dancefloors, the artist behind Zohar has been treading a diverse and eclectic musical path in which rattling low-end and rhythmic tension can be regarded as the common denominators. Known for technical refinement and mixing witchcraft, Zohar now intuitively seeks innovative and surprising connections, both disorienting and exciting listeners in the process.
The artist’s sparse yet prolific output as a producer is best channeled through the illustrious ZHR label. Its catalog consists of two DIY releases (Object, 2022; self-titled, 2019) and have been distributed in collaboration with Clone Rotterdam. These highly personal records provide temporal signs that define Zohar’s artistic development. Furthermore, works appeared on compilations by Dekmantel (DKMNTL X PATTA, 2020) and Traumgarten (Flowers That Bloom At Midnight, 2020).
Quickly becoming a mainstay in the vital Dutch scene, Zohar has recently featured at renowned institutions such as Dekmantel Festival (2022, 2019) and FIBER Festival (2022) as well as making international appearances at Positive Education (2022) and the Opera House (2022, 2018). The latter took place in collaboration with dance performer Hannah Grennel (formerly involved with the Royal Ballet UK).
