KB_ is an independent artistic collective based in Amsterdam, focused on nourishing new globalized scenes protagonized by immigrating and queer artists through sonic, visual, and performatic production. Fostering emerging multicultural voices with attention to the margins of the dutch scene and the Global South, KB_ invests efforts on organizing live music events, recordings, and DIY art practices in community.
Lokaal is an Amsterdam based collective for adventurous performing arts. It is born out of the urge to nurture an autonomous community where audiences and artists come together. We are local Amsterdam cultural citizens – artists and artists lovers – searching for inspiring fellow creatives who dare to express themselves honestly, with respect and without boundaries.

PHANTOM WIZARD
Nature, afrofuturism, jazz, and hip-hop have come together to form Phantom Wizard’s ethereal work. The artist, composer, and multi-instrumentalist of Surinamese descent was born and raised in the Dutch capital and embarks on a deeply personal yet profoundly universal journey, punctuated by experimentation and improvisation. Onstage, he is interlocked with his own multifacetedness, rendering his art moving to those who watch him play.
