Divine choral music and performance between chaos and beauty, primordial force and the
future

Inspired by the Greek goddess of the night, the London-based collective NYX creates music that balances chaos and beauty, primordial force and futurism. Working at the intersection of choral music, electronic music, and performance, they unfold intense
sonic landscapes where the voice becomes a boundless instrument for emotion, community, and transformation.
We are excited to present NYX at ALICE this September in collaboration with Final Descent.

Led by composer and musical director Sian O’Gorman, NYX has emerged in recent years as one of the most visionary collectives on the experimental European scene. Their works explore connections between body, architecture, and nature, unfolding as immersive audiovisual rituals in which the voice functions as a limitless medium. In Greek mythology, Nyx is the primordial
goddess of the night, born from chaos and giving rise to light and day. Inspired by this very duality, NYX creates music that can feel meditative, raw, otherworldly, and deeply physical all at once.

NYX has performed at renowned venues and festivals including Rewire Festival, Centre Pompidou, London Design Festival, ICA, and Queen Elizabeth Hall, and their critically acclaimed album Deep England, created in collaboration with Gazelle Twin, was named one of
the year’s best albums by The Guardian. At the same time, NYX’s practice stretches across installations, performative works, and compositions for film, television, and video games, including contributions to the soundtrack for Diablo IV. Surrender yourself to NYX’s dark electronic textures and hypnotic vocal layers when they perform at ALICE this September.
The concert is presented in collaboration with Final Descent.

Guddommelig kormusik og performance mellem kaos og skønhed, urkraft og fremtid

Med inspiration fra den græske natgudinde skaber det London-baserede kollektiv NYX musik, der balancerer kaos og skønhed, urkraft og fremtid. I spændingsfeltet mellem korværk, elektronisk musik og performance udfolder de intense klange, hvor stemmen fungerer som et grænseløst instrument for følelser, fællesskab og transformation. Vi er begejstrede for at kunne præsentere NYX på ALICE i september i samarbejde med Final Descent.

Anført af komponist og musikalsk leder Sian O’Gorman har NYX gennem de seneste år markeret sig som et af de mest visionære kollektiver på den eksperimenterende europæiske scene. Deres værker undersøger forbindelser mellem krop, arkitektur og natur og udfolder sig som intense, audiovisuelle ritualer, hvor stemmen fungerer som et grænseløst medium. I græsk mytologi er Nyx nattens urgudinde, født af kaos og ophav til lys og dag. Inspireret af netop denne dualitet skaber NYX musik, der kan føles både meditativ, rå, overjordisk og dybt fysisk.

NYX har optrådt på markante scener og festivaler som Rewire Festival, Centre Pompidou, London Design Festival, ICA og Queen Elizabeth Hall, og deres anmelderroste album “Deep England”, som de udgav med Gazelle Twin, blev af The Guardian udpeget som et af årets bedste albums. Samtidig spænder NYXs praksis bredt – fra installationer og performative værker til kompositioner for film, tv og computerspil, herunder bidrag til soundtracket til “Diablo IV”. Kom og hengiv dig til NYXs mørke elektroniske klange og hypnotiske vokalflader når de giver koncert på ALICE til september.
Koncerten er præsenteret i samarbejde med Final
Descent.
