Pocket Knife Army
Flashing lights, a kaleidoscope of bright colors and sounds, with two masked figures at the center. The glamorous underdog of the nighttime scene, Pocket Knife Army tells their story of alter egos, media overload and 21st-century paranoia, dressed in a glitter jacket and platform soles. Their energetic Glamelectro blurs the lines between musical norms and transcends genre boundaries, supporting Daisy Rae's confessional lyrics and expressive vocal delivery with larger-than-life synthpop and prickly electro jams.
With their love of '80s electronic music and their unquenchable thirst for experimentation, they have created a unique and intriguing sound that goes beyond the boundaries of any genre they call GLAMELECTRO. Some say they sound like the electronic equivalent of The White Stripes (Analogue Trash UK), others compare them to St. Vincent or Depeche Mode.
Pocket Knife Army is best known for their energetic live shows. On stage, they build a spaceship of synthesizers, drum computers, sequencers, guitars and lighting effects to fly away and suck you into their parallel universe. For a moment, you even forget there is an outside world....
NRG!
Inspired by acts such as The Prodigy, Underworld and Orbital, they take to the stage with an overwhelming performance that feels right at home on festival stages as well as in dark clubs.
Live sequencers, drum computers and analog synthesizers are combined with fierce and hard-hitting vocals to create a raw, rhythmic and, above all, energetic sound!
NRG! is the brainchild of Dutch music producer Bas Kunnen.
He began his musical career as a classically trained keyboardist and later as a drummer in a rock band.
When he discovered electronic music in the early 1990s, it changed his style forever.
NRG! has been an established name in the electronic music scene for years, but when Bas joined forces with singer and producer Semuel Leijten in 2023, the project was reinvented and transformed into the powerful live act it is today.
NRG! is an electronic live act that builds on the spirit of rave. They know that elements like sampled breakbeats, ecstatic synth hooks and pumping drum loops always get the crowd moving.
