Listen on Spotify

Her live work moves between rhythmic noise, industrial pressure, and sparse ambient space. Drums and vibration are treated as material rather than backing: expect dense texture, sudden impact, and a performance that feels closer to ritual and research than club utility.

More about Nkisi

Nkisi is a Congolese-born multidisciplinary artist and composer based in London, and she co-founded NON Worldwide. Her Anomaly Index project and recent work keep circling sonic phenomena, myth-science, and Kongo cosmology, which is why she lands naturally in a concert setting rather than a DJ slot.
