Immerse yourself in a night of genre-defying intensity at OCCII as WATER DAMAGE (US) brings Texas’s molten take on hypnotic repetition and maximal minimalism to Amsterdam. With a reputation for overwhelmingly immersive live sets, they push deep into the spaces between drone, krautrock, and mutant noise—delivering earth-shattering sonics built for trance states and total immersion. HOWIE REEVE (SC), Glasgow’s restless bass instigator, joins the bill, navigating the intersection of punk intimacy and outsider folk with frenetic energy and unfiltered honesty.
His live shows are intense and direct, marked by dexterous musicianship and spontaneous connection. On warmup and afters, DJ SL’OCCII occupies the booth with an eclectic, leftfield selection. Expect slabs of analogue techno, submerged post-punk, and deep oddities from the fringe.
This is a night for seekers, diggers, and the truly adventurous. 5 September 2025, OCCII. All welcome.
