Music Against The Grain – September 26 @ Skatecafé

Over the course of three days,

and pos (possibilities open studio) present a live programme of conversations, music, and interventions broadcast from the Centrale Markthal. Each day is shaped around a distinct theme, International Relations, Art Spaces, and Art & Words, through which invited artists, curators, and practitioners reflect on the questions and possibilities of working across borders, disciplines, and contexts.

We are excited to announce the three-day collaborative programme by Echobox Radio and pos (the possibilities open studio) during the NAP+ Art Fair, hosted and broadcast live from Centrale Markthal. On this event we will dive into the often close intersection of sound and art, examining how artistic practices, physical space and beyond,  influence one another through insightful talks, panel discussions, and experimental DJ sets. Join us on the air and on site!

For a few late September days during what felt like the last of the Summer sun, NAP+ art fair took over the sprawling industrial space of Donauweg 11 with an art fair aimed at deconstructing what art fairs are. We joined for four days of music, on-location broadcasts, interviews and panels with some leading lights of the Amsterdam arts scene.

We continue to witness the ongoing genocide in Gaza with a profound sense of powerlessness. The prospect of a permanent ceasefire and an end to the 17 year blokkade remains distant, while the humanitarian assistance reaching the region is minimal compared to the enormity of the need. This underscores the urgency of persistently highlighting the situation,mobilizing resources to support aid, and showing solidarity with the population of Gaza, and the Palestinian people more broadly.

Pitches are open!

We are now accepting pitches for new shows. For the first time our pitch form will always be available via our About page.
