We are delighted to introduce our final guest for our next encounter, this Friday: Bruno Schmidt (@_brunoschmidt_ ). Taking the helm for the final phase of the night, from midnight until close, an artist who’s work centers around tension, restraint and disruption, woven through fundamental loops and minimal structures - resisting spectacle in favour of pressure, repetition and gradual, inevitable release. Bruno is an artist who many alongside us deeply respect, across generations and borders, and his presence as the final selector for SOAP009 is a true honour. Join us this Friday at Next Door Records Two for our next dance... @nextdoorrecords_ @________soap
