1. VDJ Oof (FRA)
audio-visual performance

In 2006, The National Film Board of Canada (NFB) asked VDJ Oof to carry out an audio-visual show at the Pompidou Center using the film works of the most famous Canadian film-maker: the genius Norman McLaren (1914-1987). A dozen videos have been produced. The music has been faithfully modernized, with an electronic music twist.

2. Skinstrument / Daan Brinkmann (NL)
installation

Skinstrument is a music instrument which can be played by two or more players. By means of a tiny imperceptible current they become part of a circuit. When the players touch each other on the skin this circuit starts to generate sound. The intensity of the touch determines the frequency of the sound.

4. VJ Zanne (NL)
VJ performance

Zanne creates visuals that translate her emotions with a strong, pure own character. Her drive for veejaying is the continuous invention of new stories and relations between the different animations.

5. Live: Minz

Deep and danceable, that's the style of Minz and that's what he will stick to in his first live performance ever, especially for VERSCH. Minz avoids the obvious and takes you on a trip full of detail, with tracks ranging from atmospheric to melodic and from dark to driving. Be ready to hear some straight up dance music.

6. Live: Makam

Makam produces energetic tracks. With different kinds of electronic music like downtempo, minimallistic and funky house beats Makam creates his own unique style. As rhythmic, warm and funky as possible without adding too much sounds.

7. DJ Robbie Pardoel (NL)

His steady mixing skills and his quality to blend all different styles such as fuzzy electronics, techhouse and electro, into one set makes him one of the best dj's of Rotterdam. Robbie also produces his own tracks, which he will fit into his set.

8. DJ Steijn / NL

Resident VERSCH DJ Steijn doesnt have one style, he plays electronic music in its broadest form. From minimal to maximal he puts it all in one set. As long as it is warm, melodic and soulful.
