De Roma breekt uit! Due to the installation of a new parquet floor, our venue will not reopen until Friday, September 26. Therefore, we are temporarily organising a series of surprising concerts and other activities on location in Troubleyn: Pastorijstraat 23, 2060 Antwerp.

With their anticipated new album Kinetic, the Belgian experimental jazz band Black Flower delves into the transformative power of rhythm and motion. Each groove, rhythm and pulse channels raw energy, acting as a disruptor that drives transformation. When the mind feels stuck - cemented in patterns, rigid in its views, overwhelmed by obstacles - Kinetic is a reminder that the body’s motion is the force to shatter boundaries. To move is to adapt, evolve and transform. 

The album embodies a philosophy of flowing with change rather than resisting it, offering a bold, dynamic statement on breaking free from life's limitations. Kinetic is a call to dance through life’s chaos and to harness the power of movement as a tool for liberation.

The album showcases Black Flower's signature blend of Ethio-jazz, oriental influences, dub and afrobeat. The jazz combo, hailed by tastemakers such as Gilles Peterson, The Gaslamp Killer, and Lefto Early Bird, has performed live sessions on BBC Radio 3 and Worldwide FM. Their previous albums earned widespread acclaim, with glowing reviews from prestigious publications such as MOJO, Stereogum, Q Magazine, and Uncut Magazine. The band has toured extensively across Europe, building a strong fanbase.
