KOGG with Brass Section: Mechanista Launch - NikNak

KOGG launch their debut album Mechanista with a live multimedia performance at London's Iklectik, with support from NikNak. Combining experimental electronica, contemporary composition and creative invention, KOGG (Selena Kay and Cerys Hogg) are joined by a four-piece brass section for the first time. Live electronics, DIY contraptions, video and acoustic instruments weave together to create off-centre melodies and elastic rhythms, intertwining with live and pre-recorded projected visuals. Experience music that is theatrical, tactile, and mischevious for one night only. This double-headline bill culminates with a performance from NikNak. A trailblazing musical polymath, NikNak has carved a niche for herself in the music industry with her distinctive turntablism, immersive compositions, and captivating improvised performances. Heralded by the likes of DJ Mag, Clash, The Wire and Resident Advisor, her debut album Bashi garnered critical acclaim, positioning her as one to watch in the experimental electronic music scene. Her fourth studio album Ireti was released on Matthew Herbert's label Accidental Records in 2024 and was named one of the year's best albums by Mixmag and Bandcamp. This performance and album release has been supported by PRS Foundation’s Women Make Music. Image of KOGG - Sam Walton Image of NikNak - Em Obeng
