Nightwater: Deena Abdelwahed + Zohar

For Deena Abdelwahed, the world of Arab dance music knows no boundaries. She shares this ethos with Zohar, who effortlessly blurs the lines between club and avant-garde. They join forces for a late-night performance filled with art and electronic experimentation. Expect Abdelwahed’s signature electro-infused take on North African music. Meanwhile, Zohar supercharges the dancefloor with weighty bass and throbbing beats.

Deeply embedded in the alternative music scenes of France and her native Tunisia, DJ/producer Deena Abdelwahed fuses electronic dance music with explorations of her Arab identity. Meanwhile, DJ Zohar from Amsterdam brings years of experience to the decks with her eclectic and intuitive sets that forge surprising links between diverse musical styles.

Access to Nightwater
Your ticket for this concert also gives you access to Nightwater. Be sure to take the time to walk through the Muziekgebouw and discover this installation by Thanasis Deligiannis. 

Nightwater transforms the building into a virbant environment full of videos, fascinating soundscapes and recorded sounds. Where industrial, rural, and urban elements converge and geographical boundaries are intentionally blurred. With their performance, Deena Abdelwahed and Zohar turn the installation into an experience where the dividing lines between installation art, club culture, and soundscapes disappear in The Rest is Noise.

Nightwater is a co-production of the Muziekgebouw Productiehuis and the I/O Foundation, and is presented with the support of Het Cultuurfonds, Amsterdams Fonds voor de Kunst, the Greek Embassy in the Netherlands, Onassis Stegi - Touring Program, HVA International, Aegean Airlines and The Greek House in Rotterdam.
