A new super international generation of improvisers
SPACE IMPRO
Start of a new Space Impro season, for the first time at our new location: Sexyland World.
Expect three explosive concerts presented by a new super international generation of
improvisers with fresh and powerful ideas, and at the same time respectful to their jazz and
improv ancestors.
VILLE LÄHTEENMÄKI TRIO
Ville Lähteenmäki Trio is a free-spirited and explosive band from Finland and Norway. The
group’s music is a mesmerizing mix of intense interplay, powerful expression and far-
reaching improvisations, influenced by the great innovators of 1960’s and 1970’s
free/spiritual jazz, like Pharoah Sanders, Archie Shepp, Alice Coltrane and Albert Ayler. The
trio released their critically acclaimed debutalbum “Introducing: Ville Lähteenmäki Trio” in the
summer of 2022 as a tribute to their greatest heroes in music, but also with eyes open
towards the future of jazz. The band is currently working on their second album.

INNEC
INNEC is a fresh band based in Amsterdam that tries to explore new paths in music –
postmodern directions rooted in the flexuous time we are living. With their name based on
Wassilly Kandinky’s concept of Inner Necessity, their music mixes free improvisation with
challenging but open compositions where strong individual voices of each musician can
simultaneously shine and melt in unity.
Ignacio Pintó bass | Aleksander Sever vibraphone | Marcus Wärnheim saxophone | Ludvig

THOMAS JASPERS SOLO
Thomas is a young, versatile drummer, who plays in various experimental jazz/improvisation
groups. In addition, as a climate activist he takes action against deep sea mining, amongst
others, with the grindcore band ‘The Polymetallic Nodules’. This summer he worked on his
solo, using both electronics and acoustic possibilities of the drum kit.

Manu, also known as ‘Seksmesjien’, was born and raised in the club. At the age of eighteen he started organizing club nights in Amsterdam and soon fell in love with the nightlife. Not much later, he and his friend Jordi opened their own DJ academy, called Studio 7, where local talent gets a stage in the capital.
His sound consists of 90’s house and trance, with hints of disco and breakbeat. The more energy a track has, the happier Manu is to play it in front of a crowd. His enthusiasm hasn’t gone unnoticed, with bookings at festivals such as By the Creek and various nightclubs in Amsterdam.

“I want to disappear into carelessness, the way children can do that. The carelessness of not knowing. However I am an adult and ‘I know’, therefore I combine this childlike style with serious topics and concerns. I play with contradictions in my work. How can we feel happy and suffocated at the same time?”

De Grote Rematch
In een parallelle wereld waar dribbelen met je vingers een kunstvorm is en goals scoren een wetenschap, verzamelen de grootste tafelvoetbalhelden voor het meest epische tafelvoetbaltornooi aller tijden! Het stadion? Sexyland. Leg je handen aan de Deutsche Meister, een Garlando, de Leonhart en de verwoestende Tornado T3000 (World Champion VS).
We beginnen lekker op tijd met de docu ‘Foosballers’ over de opkomst en ondergang. Want daarna wordt het gewoon hardcore zweten en zwoegen met kletsnatte ruggen en nog nattere pinten, meedogenloze blikken, vinger stretch rituelen en strategische genialiteit.
Wat kun je zoal winnen? Wie komt, die weet. Schrijf je ter plekke in op de Monster DYP, dus niet kiezen is misschien niet verliezen.

‘But in all seriousness..’
De tijd waarin we leven vraagt om onze onverdeelde aandacht, terwijl de complexiteit van onze wereld het ingewikkeld maakt om een onverdeelde positie te aanvaarden of in te nemen. Achter elk begrip of elke overtuiging schuilen andere meningen die niet worden gehoord of terzijde worden geschoven. En zonder platform blijven deze irrelevant, en de visie en viering die ze beloven gedempt.
In het licht van de aankomende verkiezingen in Nederland, en binnen de aanhoudende wereldgebeurtenissen organiseert Sexyland samen met Huib Haye van der Werf ‘But in all seriousness..’, een avond gewijd aan speeches en proclamaties. Iedereen is welkom om een speech te houden over welk onderwerp dan ook. Maximaal zeven minuten is het woord aan wie tegen het glas tikt voor een diversiteit aan verklaringen, geboren uit even uiteenlopende achtergronden en urgenties. Liefde, oorlog, onderwijs, ecologie, politiek, parkbanken, gelnagels.. alles is mogelijk.
Er worden speechers gevraagd, maar ook iedereen die er zin in heeft kan dat mes tegen dat glas tikken. Geen Q&A achteraf. Gewoon een viering van toespraken en de gesprekken waartoe ze kunnen leiden. Op woensdag 8 november trappen we af tijdens het nationale SEXYLAND World Ping Pong Toernooi. Verwacht sowieso een speech van de winnaar, en de 2e plek en de troostprijs, misschien de een na laatste.
‘But in all seriousness..’

De Woonwolk is here to change the way we live in cities. As a housing cooperative, we are saying NO to more expensive and profit driven housing, to individualistic living spaces and a lack of communal dwellings. Instead, our dream home in Amsterdam Noord will be built on a foundation of sustainability, community, and creativity. Creating a blueprint for the future, and letting tenants live according to their needs.
Come join us during our special CLOUDfunding event at Sexyland World. The Woonwolk members will present a program full of art, music, and the celebration of our newfound community! You help us kickstart our crowdfunding campaign before you’re even inside, as the ticket sales directly support our project.
Inside, meet the members of our cooperative on our “Housing Market”, make cloudy dreamcatchers during our creative workshop, or try out your luck and win unique art pieces at our lottery. Share your hopes and dreams on the future of living through our postcard pyramid scheme, satisfy your inner child with fluffy cotton candy, and dance the night away with our DJs Passion DEEZ, dengdeng and Nicoba.

On Friday 10 November, Yinzk is hosting a release performance for their new single ‘ah’ in Sexyland.

Next, Sam Zanardo [she/they] and Christian Johannes [he] will perform their soundscaping, ambient work ‘e così saprai chi sono’ (‘and so you will know who I am’): an homage to queer icons in Italian folklore. Finally, Cara Cain Wittenhaus [he/they] and Sarjon [they/them] perform together and auction off the props of their act afterwards for the fundraiser.
Later that night, Yinzk performs a set of their music and will premiere their new single ‘ah’. They will share the stage with dutch ballroom scene new way voguer Qottonz [she/her], performance artist Ioanna Mitza [she/her], dancer/performer Cara Cain Wittenhaus [he/they] and multi-talented artist Caleb / CeMac [they/she/he].

Pasta appreciation event and club night!
On this night we (our multidisciplinairy collective EST-EF) would like to celebrate our love for pasta with all of you. Thick, thin, colored, filled, flat, round, twisted, and quirky strands of pasta. You name it, we love it. For this occasion we would like to bring known pasta lovers together and find new like-minded individuals to realize one of our long time dreams: a mega-spaghetti. Two teams, two strands, one hour, one winner. Join us for pasta spinning between 18:00 and 21:00: the team with the longest spaghetti strand wins a spaghetti trophy and a certificate (and thus eternal fame on vacation in Italy).
Due do expected success (who doesn’t want to compete in this?) make sure to be on time, and be prepared to take part in supporting and/or judging the contestors as this has a limited capacity! From 21:00 on, our DJ’s take inspiration from their cherished pasta dishes; imagine arrabiata infused reggaeton, progressive house with hints of alla norma, and finally a dirty femme house sauce. Whatever the ingredients, get ready for a flavorful, genre-defying dancefloor experience. Alongside, the night will be complemented by visuals and a short movie.

Madeleine Ward is a visual artist with an academic background in illustration. She depicts her subjects on paper with bright colours and harsh contrasts. Something that is almost always present in her works is her sassy character and use of humour and satire. On Saturday the 11th of November Madeleine will showcase a selection of her work, ‘moo’st of them revolving around a theme: the cow. Cows are one of Madeleine’s favourite sources of inspiration. Through painting them she is trying to uncover her fascination for them, which has resulted in a great collection of cows. Aside from a gallery exhibition there will be a temporary tattoo shop open for the afternoon. With the help of tattoo markers Madeleine is able to tattoo you pain-free! Pick any of the art works or have her design one for you on the spot.

SEXYLAND WORLD EN BURO STEDELIJK NODIGEN JULLIE GRAAG UIT VOOR EEN AVOND IN HET TEKEN VAN DE MENSENRECHTENSCHENDINGEN IN GAZA EN DAARBUITEN.
De situatie in Gaza daar kunnen we wat ons betreft heel helder over zijn: Wat daar gebeurt kan niet en dat kan al heel lang niet en het gebeurt niet alleen daar. Toch lijkt precies deze oorlog een heleboel zaken bloot te leggen in onze samenleving. De maatschappelijke ophef is groot maar leidt ook tot grote verdeeldheid. Antisemitisme en Islamophobie sentimenten groeien. Je uitspreken kan grote consequenties hebben, je niet uitspreken ook. Leuzen worden bevraagd, woorden gewogen en ondertussen blijven de bommen vallen.
Deze avond wordt georganiseerd vanuit een grote behoefte de juiste woorden te vinden voor wat zoveel mensen op dit moment voelen. Onmacht. Rouw. Verdriet. Woede. Een sluimerende angst dat dit ons verder verdeelt. We willen deze zoektocht naar woorden, naar daden, naar het uitspreken zonder tegenspreken binden in een avond waarin verwarring centraal mag staan, waarin reflecties gedeeld worden en luisteren belangrijker is dan spreken. De sfeer zal veilig en informeel zijn met bijdragen van stadsdichter @marjolijnvanheemstra, performer @simomo_bouj, rapper @qaq._._, kunstenaar @s.t.a.t.e.l.e.s.s , Joods Marokkaanse ambassadeur Sami Kaspi e.a.
De avond is gratis toegankelijk, meld je snel aan door een mailtje te sturen naar programma@sexyland.world want er is een beperkte capaciteit van 60 personen. Er kan bij binnenkomst een donatie gedaan worden voor Medical Aid for Palestinians.

New sounds and rhythms in a vocabulary of free improvisation
Such a wild variety of musicians, styles, genres and nationalities this edition of Space Impro at the new location of de Ruimte: Sexyland World. Tonight on stage a lot of curiosity to new sounds and rhythms in a vocabulary of free improvisation and most of all open mindedness.
EMMELUTH | RING | SKAVHAUG NERGAARD
This organism moves forward. A non-dogmatic collective. The music alternates between spectral sound fields, occasional textural noise parts and displaced parallel rhythmic layers. The distinctive character of the trio and flexibility the combination of instruments offer, are clearly shown in the interplay with intonation and in creating a space where the overtones from wood and metal merge. The pan-Scandinavian trio consists of Signe Emmeluth (DK), Joel Ring (SE) and Magnus Skavhaug Nergaard (NO) who are all part of Oslo’s improvisation scene. The trio comes from a background in free jazz, noise rock and electroacoustic music and are known from the bands Emmeluth’s Amoeba, Joel and the Neverending Sextet and Monkey Plot.

MIRIAM DEN BOER / AMANDA IRARRÁZABAL
‘The Chilean double bassist Amanda Irarrázabal and the Dutch-Mexican violinist Miriam den Boer Salmón met in the rich music scene of Mexico City. They brought their shared love of adventure and curiosity for everything sound can be, together in a creative collaboration and a recording session in Amsterdam. In 2022, their debut album Fauces was released on the label 577 Records, which the duo celebrates with a tour through Europe.

PERPETUAL BIKE CRASH
Perpetual Bike Crash is the project of guitarist Francisco Garrido along with Micheal Murray on alto saxophone and Joshua Lutz on piano and keyboards. Taking influences from ambient, minimal music and film music, the band creates atmospheric soundscapes that lead the listener into a captivating and immersive ambient journey.

A Harmonious Convergence of Beats and Cultures
Electric Fusion is an electrifying event that promises to ignite the night with an explosive blend of musical genres and cultural heritage. At the heart of this sensational gathering, four talented tech house DJs, each hailing from distinct cultural backgrounds in Amsterdam, will take the stage alongside two charismatic rap artists, creating an exceptional fusion of sound and diversity.
This unique event celebrates the power of inclusiveness, uniting fans of both tech house and rap music under one roof. The two headliners, Trapsino, representing the world of rap, and Gyatso, a luminary in the tech house scene, will lead the charge, guiding the audience on a mesmerizing musical journey. But “Electric Fusion” is not just about the artists; it’s about the message it carries. By merging these seemingly distinct musical worlds, we aim to showcase that diversity can harmoniously coexist and, in fact, enhance the experience. The revenue generated from ticket sales, after covering event costs, will be distributed among all the artists, reinforcing the spirit of collaboration and equality.
The line-up is Jannick Martin, Mitofusion, Danny Martinez, Dj 4am, Trapsino, Joiah and Gyatso.

Iedereen mag mee doen en alles mag qua onderwerp zolang het aanzet geeft tot geweld. Het gaat hier om het vieren van visie(s) en kakofonie.

Techno Yoga is an event concept that repurposes nightclubs on the week nights to give an experience of tapping into our bodies with a vinyasa flow. Together, we explore our embodiment with the vibrations of the Techno genre and create a safe space to practice sensory awareness by focusing on the feeling and release. We come into close connection with our heartbeats and our breaths. It is music therapy meets yoga therapy meets contemporary! The concept is deeply centered around community and sharing a space with concepts, artists, or djs to create immersive moments for yogis and a sober experience for the techno scene. The class is welcome for all levels of yoga, including beginners and advance. All genders, sexualities, races, nationalities, religions are welcome. Come as you are.
About Natasha
I am an artist and yoga teacher that wanted find a way to combine my passions and create a safe space for people to practice. Yoga is about union, and here we find a combination of two polar concepts…the softness of yoga and the intensity of the techno genre… a yin and yang. Yoga brings us into a state of awareness and if we can explore this with creativity, it brings a unique practice for our emotions and our perceptions. There will be two sessions (one starting at 17:30, and the next starting at 19:00). Please bring your own mat to the space.

Comfortable, desirable, sexually liberated and above all, fun!
Baby Baby is once again looking to bring the spirit and edge of the Irish electronic music scene to Sexyland, for all to engage with and enjoy. This time around it is in collaboration with one of the most unique and important club nights to come out of Dublin, Club Comfort: “Club Comfort take full command of the party underworld when sculpting a dance. With their all encompassing approach to club music from around the globe, they cast a light on the importance of group experience with their conceptually themed parties. The result is a regular moment in which all people are encouraged to feel comfortable, desirable, sexually liberated and above all, to have fun.”
The event, as is the case with all Club Comfort and Baby Baby gatherings, aims to prioritise inclusivity, has a DIY ethos and seeks to platform the most talented DJs and producers working in the Irish electronic scenes. The main idea behind the events is to take the spirit and edge of the underground Irish club scene and place it in a fresh context for a broader audience to engage with.
This party sees producer/DJs Roo Honeychild, Selky, Boyfrens and Plus one take control of the decks. All have been engaging with and working within the Irish electronic scene for years now. The event will be high energy, fun, sexy and will prioritise dancing/movement.

Live synth and rap performances with video projection, followed by DJ’s spinning house, garage & other bass wavelengths!
Spectral is a night of live performances, DJ’s and visual artists from NL and UK artists celebrating the creative community and coming together. Stepping from intimate gig, to club night party atmosphere with a healthy dose of video design. Our ears will take a tour across synth, rap, house, party bangers, breaks, garage and our selector’s leftfield fancies inbetween. Anybody and all are welcome to come and celebrate!
Artists:
ELDON // The fabled poet drops in to deliver his unkempt style of rap, jiggery pokery and shimmering trinket stylings; fringe theory over speaker knockers.
Mark IJzerman // Takes us through his atmospheric set of live modular synth, bringing you on an expansive journey to begin the evening and make sure minds are open as we move into the night.
Jdot & Mikel / / The South London duo with a history of programming parties in their native Peckham come to Amsterdam with a plan to unleash Feel Good house music, nostalgic party bangers and positive vibrations upon the Sexyland revellers!
Jumelage // The Dutch house music aficionado promises 100% groove laden rhythms, classic vocals and dancefloor powering energy to keep the November cold at bay.
DJ Croft // The organiser will oscillate house, UK bass, breaks and garage, mixing in dashes of percussive, bass driven darkness amongst the groove and vocal light; keeping the spectrum broad and driving.
Aimee Stroud & Dale Croft // Print and graphic designer Aimee Stroud collaborates with video designer Dale Croft to create a multi screen Spectral backdrop of abstract explorations, AMS to LDN fusions and positive messaging for troubling times.
All open minds are welcome - Come connect and reach out if you’d like to get involved with music, visual art or otherwise for this or future editions! An Amsterdam crate digger with focus on grooves from the nu-disco and underground house scene. Jumelage holds a collection of deep burning house records dating back to the 90ties, from slow jazzy beats towards the deep echoing bass-drums of the night.

Investigating the rave scene through art works
“Poison We Love” unfolds as an electrifying event where art meets rave, showcasing a collection of international multimedia artists and DJs. It’s an exploration of rave rituals, the allure of escapism, and the seductive dance with ‘poisons’ in our pursuit of joy.
THE ART
Melbourne’s Olivia White crafts an artful narrative with installations that vibrate with the energy of rave and rebellion. São Paulo’s Luisa Prada Mendiondo stitches fashion into a statement, draping rave culture in avant-garde threads. The Netherlands’ Effesse moulds a 3D tribute to Amsterdam’s psychedelic beats.
THE MUSIC
On the decks, Italy’s Alessio spins a retro-futuristic mix, igniting nostalgia with a fresh beat, while the Middle East’s Farris Malla infuses techno with his rich, cross-continental heritage. Germany’s Lafopa brings the essence of Amsterdam’s raves, weaving groovy to hard-hitting techno in his meticulously crafted sets.
More artists and DJs will be announced, promising an unforgettable experience where every note and brushstroke hits the sweet spot of joy and escapism.
Join us as art and music collide, celebrating the paradoxical poisons we love.

Alle input wordt gewaardeerd, alle output wordt omarmd
Soms brengt het leven ons momenten van grote verandering en onzekerheid. Het is flink raak de laatste tijd, en zeker ook de verkiezingsuitslag maakt het er allemaal niet gezelliger op. Enorm veel mensen zijn verdrietig en wanhopig, maar voelen zich ook ontzettend strijdbaar. Laten we kracht vinden in de chaos en samen op zoek naar de beste manier om onze frustraties en verbazing om te zetten in actie en positivisme.
Op woensdag 29 november organiseren we het Praat & Jank Café waarbij we de avond beginnen met een kop soep en de vertoning van de film ‘What’s Left’ om 18:30 uur. Een docu van Johan Fretz en Juul op den Kamp die de politieke idealen van de sociaaldemocratie tegen het licht houden. Daarna is de microfoon open voor wie z’n hart wil luchten. Merijn Meijer gaf al aan een gedicht voor te dragen. En we doorlopen samen de vijf stadia van rouw na de verkiezingsuitslag. Van ontkenning die transformeert naar woede, dat zich doorweeft naar onderhandeling en zich een weg baant naar depressie, we gaan dit samen doen. Alle input wordt gewaardeerd, alle output wordt omarmd en nemen we met ons mee voor een actiedag op zondag 10 december. Op die dag zullen we gezamenlijk onze schouders eronder zetten en een programma van actie en verwarring smeden, in samenwerking met de Amsterdamse nachtburgemeester Freek Wallagh. De volledige invulling van dat programma wordt binnenkort bekendgemaakt.

Space Impro
Tonight a Space Impro evening full of young, innovative, experimental improvisers, alternating between explosive music & otherworldly atmospheres.
TEUN VERBRUGGEN / STIAN WESTERHUS
Stian Westerhus is one of the most innovative guitarists in the world, since decades already. This experimental musician from Norway manipulates his guitar like a futuristic sound tapper. Teun Verbruggen is one of Belgium’s most curious drummers with a penchant for improvisation. Not only are they together in the improv quartet Warped Dreamer, they have now also released a duo album: Earthbound Monochrome.

FEAR O’ SHEA
Fear O’ She gathers a constellation of emerging and established improvisers around Tancrède’s compositions and concepts. The music merges contemporary classical influences with avant-garde rhythmical gestures and forms. Now speaking! At once violent or tenuous, improvisations converge towards sophisticated structures in turn explored, combined or deserted. In Search! In search for this unstable environment where act prevails, where the mute will of music takes over.
Felix Hauptmann - piano | Elisabeth Coudoux - cello | Philipp Gropper - saxophone | Marcus Wärnheim - saxophone | Tancrède D. Kummer - drums
INGER HANNISDAL SOLO
At the crossroads of folk music, avant-garde jazz and free improvisation, Norwegian violinist Inger Hannisdal combines the use of prepared violin and extended techniques with longing, soaring melodies in her solo work. At times, the preparations make the violin sound industrial and metallic; other times it is flute-like and otherworldly. The open strings ring next to those that have been altered, calling on both the clear and the opaque, like watching tones through running water.
