About this Event
On 24 October, A Soft Guide to Chill invites Archetype to perform his new album Nothing New Under The Sun, a critical reflection on how contemporary individual experiences—despite being more connected than ever—are increasingly shaped by feelings of isolation, anxiety, and fragmentation.
The evening also features a live performance by Gizem Öz, an Amsterdam-based composer, sound artist, and contemporary artist working at the intersections of club and gallery, ritual and technology, emotion and abstraction.
The programme opens with LNR, the DJ alias of El Bickers, a UK-born, Amsterdam-based writer, researcher, and DJ whose practice bridges archival research with the energy of the dance floor. Through deep investigations into underground music histories and 90s rave countercultures, LNR explores the connections between past movements and contemporary electronic landscapes. Their sets draw from decades of musical experimentation, weaving together forgotten sounds, countercultural histories, and the evolving language of the club.
The evening closes with Sarah Saleh, an interdisciplinary artist, DJ, and co-founder of BBTCOR, whose sonic practice explores the emotional and spatial qualities of electronic music. Through her research into the 1990s chill-out room, she brings together ambient, dub, downtempo, and psychedelic influences to create spaces for collective listening, reflection, and connection.
