LEVEL 47 x KAPA: GEORDIE GREEP (UK)
+ Nejc Pipp (SI) & Co. @ Gala Hala
Level Up in Kapa present the first-ever Slovenian show by windmill scene pioneer and former driving force of black midi, Geordie Greep.
The concert will be opened by Nejc Pipp & Co.
For fans of black midi, David Byrne, Frank Zappa, Scott Walker…
After the breakup of black midi, Geordie Greep surprised with his solo debut The New Sound, a record that delivers exactly what its title promises. It is a maximalist blend of jazz-funk, post-punk, samba, and Broadway-style theatricality, replacing the chaotic guitar riffs of black midi with danceable polyrhythms and bold arrangements featuring more than thirty instrumentalists.
The line between parody and sermon is deliberately blurred, as Greep transforms into a twisted yet suave lounge singer, dissecting male despair and fantasies of control through a series of bizarre vignettes that inevitably collapse into absurdity. As he puts it: “Music can be anything you want.” He simply chose everything at once.
“A relentless, kaleidoscopic, vibrant fever dream.” 9/10 – The Needle Drop
“Might just be the great sonic flex of the decade so far.” – Devin Birse, Post-Trash
The evening will open with Nejc Pipp, a Škofja Loka–based vocalist emerging as one of the strongest young authorial voices in Slovenia. Originally a production-driven project in the vein of Frank Ocean, his live performance evolves into a full instrumental ensemble, transforming electronic foundations into a rich blend of dreamy indie, soft R&B, ambient textures, and melancholic jazz.
“An exceptional album of independent pop on a global level.” – Miroslav Akrapović, SIGIC
