Closing this season of After Hours by inviting producers, musicians, and artists to showcase their work. Each presentation opens up the music from within — through stories of process, inspiration, and intention. Alongside the listening, you’ll be invited to take part in small tasks designed by the artists themselves, creating new ways of engaging with sound together. There will also be an open segment, so if you have some music you wanna showcase - come grab the aux! Joining us we have: @nedjabouzaida — Norwegian-Tunisian songwriter, singer & composer blending electronic RnB, and rhythmic textures. At MUNCH, she’ll debut songs from her upcoming project Sadly Ecstatic — warm, atmospheric, and boundary-pushing.

A cute lil recap of Septembers After Hours run<3 @nikkyzabo reflecting on what “Arv Av Smerte”/ “Legacy of Pain” means to him as a title and the message it carries. «I think the emotions you feel at a young age really stick with you, and when things are heavy it’s very common to feel like no one understands. That’s where art come in as this funny thing, cause there is no emotion that has not been felt before.» - Nikky Zabo Edit by @leonhardmarius 🤍

What does music consumption and engagement look like today? And what really drives music forward? Algorithms, community, or economy? Where does artistic freedom fit in? We have invited voices from Oslo’s music scene for a panel talk to discuss these questions.
