The Jam With Humans Orchestra's Summer Extravaganza

Family friendly show for all ages

This Summer Extravaganza will feature ASTIRoids (freestyle rappers), Albert Manders (flutist extraordinaire) and The Daze (electro-ambient project incubated by Jam With Humans) 

ASTIRoids

Freshly arrived in Amsterdam, ChebManu's mind got blown away by an improvised rapping show at Boom Chicago. Many years later he would start improv theater himself and take his first improvised rap workshops from North Coast NYC. Wanting to learn and practice these skills further, but having more fun with other players, he founded the Amsterdam School of Theatrically Improvised Rappers (ASTIR) and started organizing regular jam sessions. He started first in his own living room with RavyOllie and DrMishMash, but eventually the group started growing bigger and bigger and they needed to practice at Q-Factory or CREA. They went several times on stage thanks to TagOutTheater, but also at CREA or Boom Chicago comedy festival. They now count more than 15 members, including a drummer, a beatboxer and a beatmaker.

Albert Manders

Albert Manders is a composer, flutist, artistic and executive director. He moved from the US to Amsterdam in 2006 to study contemporary flute and composition. Interested in all sides of artistic expression and cultural management he has worked in many roles including chamber musician, artistic leadership, financial direction, production, and marketing, and has created a number of music(theater) projects including Eendagsliederen, Passing Sounds and SLOT.

The Daze

At a Jam-with-Humans concert about a year ago, David's spectacular voice met the soundscapes of Sebastian's ambient guitar. This was the moment when The Daze was born. Whatever these two humans sang and played together sounded magically beautiful. Since then, The Daze has grown to include Anastasiya at the cello, Daniel at the drums and Nikesh at the synths. What music do they play? You may call it psychedelic post-rock, or ambient slow-pop, or progressive soundscapes - but in fact you need to drop by and find out!
