ALL EVENTS

Klangphonics will be at 100% Studio on May 3rd as part of %100 Müzik!

Building his sets around moments of tension and release that captivate the listener from start to finish, Maksu has an instinct for creating journeys through sound. Drawing on emotion and energy, he focuses on uplifting and melodic tracks that radiate positivity and forge strong connections on the dancefloor.

German electronic music band Klangphonics will take the stage at Zorlu PSM 100% Studio on May 3rd as part of PSM Loves2Gather event series with their innovative style that redefines the concept of live music. In 2017, Maxl, Ben and Markus met while studying music in Southern Germany and initially formed Klangphonics as a live band. Over time, however, the band crossed the boundaries of DJ and producer and created a unique musical identity.

With their debut EP “Songs to Try” released in 2021, Klangphonics made a big hit and quickly made a name for themselves with their music reaching millions of listens. With a completely independent approach, the band gained millions of followers on social media thanks to their creative viral marketing strategies and built a global fan base. The band is entering a new era in their musical journey with their debut album “Perfect Opposure”, which will be released in the fall of 2024. The album's first single “In Between (Memories and Dreams)” combines traditional songwriting techniques with modern electronic elements, reflecting Klangphonics' unique style that refuses to be labeled. Retaining techno and house influences, the album is notable for its more pop-inspired production.

Klangphonics will embark on a major European and first North American tour in early 2025 and is preparing to offer audiences an audio-visual feast with their innovative AV shows. Don't miss this exciting performance and meet the mesmerizing music of Klangphonics at Zorlu PSM 100% Studio on May 3rd as part of PSM Loves2Gather!

Pioneers and legends, innovators and modern icons will gather this May as Sónar Istanbul 2025 — supported by %100 Music — returns to Zorlu PSM on 9–10 May.

Sylvie Kreusch is coming Zorlu PSM 100% Studio on May 13th!

Ghent-based artist Sylvie Kreusch is rapidly rising as one of the most impressive and electrifying performers in Europe. Her trail-blazing music and visuals already turned many heads in the fields of music, film and fashion. Kreusch is known for her brutal, expressive lyricism and keen ear for both experimental and pop stylistics.

During the past decade, Kreusch made her first waves playing in Belgium with art rockers Soldier’s Heart and Warhaus, the solo-project of Balthazar’s Maarten Devoldere. After releasing her debut EP BADA BING! BADA BOOM!, her artistic vision prospered fully in 2021 on her riveting critically acclaimed full-length debut album, Montbray.

But once upon a time… there was a girl dreaming in her grandmother’s attic, her starry eyes fully immersed in a collection of vintage comic books. These bright, fantastical tales were a younger Sylvie’s gateway to a magical place, far from the daily toils of reality. Each turn of the page stirred her with pure wonder, possibility and excitement. It’s these big bold emotions that serve as the main conductor for Sylvie Kreusch’s adventurous upcoming new album. She abandons her lofty tenure as Belgium’s specter of the night, trading in her raging red locks for a dashing blonde. Finally in the driver’s seat with her lover sitting shotgun, she embarks on a horizon-chasing voyage where all fruits of life are savored and surveyed with wide eyes and luscious lips. Sylvie Kreusch will take her audience on this ride on May 13 as she takes the stage at Zorlu PSM %100 Studio!

People Places Things – A Play About Courage

“We don’t believe in limits. We believe in pioneering. We believe in vision.

Even if it seems impossible to everyone else, we say yes.

How beautiful it is to be alive.

To swim in the sea, to look at the sky, to feel the sun on your skin…

To climb a mountain or to take even a single step up a staircase.

To love and be loved.

How beautiful it is…

Now it’s mine! Now it’s yours! Now it’s ours!

And this is just the beginning.”

People Places Things is the story of a person trying to free themselves from the burdens of the past.

The story of Nina, Emma, Sarah—or, for now, Sarah.

Who can say for sure?

As long as we can face our fears, confront reality, and, most importantly, love ourselves, we exist.

If life is a battle for existence,

and if existence begins with family,

sometimes, you need to break free from all dependencies.

Even from your mother.

“A coyote only falls when it looks down. In reality, it can run in the air,
but the moment it realizes it should fall, gravity kicks in. That was my spiritual awakening.”

This play reminds us of long-lost siblings, family dinners that were never shared,
and that we should never look down.

Can we keep going without looking down?

I don’t know.

Maybe.

The greatest hit ever for GöteborgsOperans Danskompani, Hammer is coming to the Turkcell Stage in May 2025!

Hammer is a two-act evening spent with GöteborgsOperans Danskompani – an unerring dance work that takes us from a state of selfless harmony offline to self-conscious egomania online, and back again. It might inspire us to break through fake facades and choose life instead of likes.

Multi-award-winning choreographer Alexander Ekman is bold, unpredictable and innovative – just like GöteborgsOperans Danskompani. His visually powerful work turns a spotlight on contemporary society’s self-image, often with a humorous twist. He makes us laugh at ourselves, but perhaps even more at others. Ekman has created around 50 works, which have been performed by almost as many companies worldwide. Hammer is his third creation for GöteborgsOperans Danskompani.
