Ambient Bird's Nest
- Next weekend
One night of slow music in the dark, lying down. Imagine the end of Slush week, and you step into an ambient space: an evening of sound, stillness and presence. All over the world, clubs are filling up with beds: people lying down in clean sound, something warm to drink, nobody dancing. Helsinki parties always had a chill-out room. Somewhere along the way they disappeared, and a lot of us miss them. So we’re bringing one back, starting with one night at the end of Slush week. We call this place the nest. On Saturday evening, be here now. No dancing, no doing, no small talk. Come in from the cold, take your shoes off, land, grab a warm drink and lie down in the dark or take a comfortable seat, in the spot that calls you. The places are few, so the room stays quiet. All it takes is to slow down and listen. Be in the nest. The night Come on time: the night starts at the door. 18:00 Doors. Land. 18:30 First set. Fold. 20:00 Second set. Nest. 21:30 Live trumpet. Sing. Later The deepest set. Dream. Until 02:00 The farewell. Fly home, or on to the next stop on your journey. Who plays: Aki opens the night. Then Antti Hevosmaa, known from Virta, with a solo ambient set and live trumpet, and ONCHI with the deepest set of the night. More line-up coming soon. But it isn’t about the line-up: it’s about the night they make together. The sound comes from Genelec, our long-term partner and a company we love, in a special way: a pair of Genelecs from the 1980s, one of only three pairs left. Two main speakers, every bed inside the square, played low. Lie back and bathe in it. Music, sound and space with Nordic Bridge Music. Scent by Smell the Art and SHAMAL. Spheres by Koje Studio, in colour for the first time. Coats in the cloakroom, shoes off at the door. Bring warm woollen socks. Tea at low tables, not a bar; there is nothing to buy. Lie down or sit down: mattresses, wool and sheepskins round the nest, sofas and seats at the edges.
