Dear Omen

Intertwining krautrock, new wave, and dark tones into an idiosyncratic sound.

Dear Omen is a heavy-hearted post-punk band based in Amsterdam. This band intertwines krautrock, new waves, and dark tones into an idiosyncratic sound. With a fusion of organ, percussion, and vocals, they create a unique musical experience. Solid basslines and pounding drum rhythms mixed with piercing organs, combined with an incredible live show, make Dear Omen a band that most people won’t soon forget. In December Dear Omen released their EP The S Tapes. Catch Dear Omen during Popronde from September to November 2025.

Tel dan het feit op dat leadzangeres Fay door de hele EP heen met verschillende feministische thema’s speelt wat het nog interessanter maakt. En ook scherp, want dat kun je ook oer Dear Omen wel zeggen. – 3voor12 NH

Mood Bored
Who said an existential crisis can’t be fun?

Mood Bored is an indie-rock trio based in The Netherlands. With their punchy bass lines, guitar driven melodies and infectious hooks, they construct a sonic landscape that evokes the rush of glittering dance floors, while dreamy vocals and introspective lyrics recall the existentialism of those late-night conversations in the party bathroom.

Shifting maniacally between sentiments of near-nihilistic cynicism to earnest hopefulness, Mood Bored articulates what it feels like to be a young adult in a digital era of perpetual chaos.

In february 2025 the band released their sophomore EP ‘Too Much?’, which showcases a more serious side of themselves. ‘Too Much?’ is not only a bundle of songs but an outcry as they question who they are and what they (should) do.

Plug & Play

With an overload of pink fur and a giant teddy bear, Plug & Play creates a space where being your true self is celebrated.

Plug & Play is an Amsterdam-based club night offering a playful and inclusive gateway into nightlife for queer and creative beings. Inspired by the raw energy of Dutch gabber culture and the overstimulating chaos of internet-born music, Plug & Play delivers a chaotically charming blend of happy hardcore, hyperpop, breakcore, and beyond.

DJs are challenged to spin their wildest ideas — nothing is too crazy. Previous editions took place at venues like Kanaal40 and Parallel, featuring DJs such as LARASATI, Dr Dickey, Sarah Bonito, screenage dj, and Fitgirl.

Plug and Play is the brain child of Romeo Schmitt & Floris Rosenbaum.
