KOREAN NIGHT @ TANKSTATION

We invite you to board on a short trip to the other side of the globe together with us! On the 26th of May, Tankstation hosts a Korean themed night with food, music and more.

>>> CLICK HERE TO RESERVE YOUR PLATE <<<

We will serve a full plate of delicious Korean food and a specialty drink. After dinner, you can have fun playing a variety of Korean games. If you feel competitive, a Ddakji tournament will take place in the evening, which you can freely join! If you don’t already know it, Ddakji is a traditional Korean game played using folded paper (you might have heard of it from Squid Game). At the end of the tournament, the winner gets a prize.

For this themed night, our cozy space will be fully decorated in Korean style and Korean music will play throughout the whole night. So if you like kpop, come along and bring your friends as well!

And for our Korean guests, we hope you can find a bit of your home’s comfort here at Tankstation

ENVIRONMENTAL WEEK @ TANKSTATION

“What do you think of our relationship with the environment?”

Tankstation invites you to reflect upon the impact we have on the ecosystem that surrounds us. We’d like to explore the influence that our modern lifestyle has on the planet and the things we could do to reduce the negative footprint we have on the environment.

We have put together a series of events, organized with environmentally conscious friends from Enschede, addressing the environmental issues arising from our everyday practices. Together, we can learn more about our environment and the steps we can take to have a more positive relationship with it, both as individuals and as communities.

Throughout the environmental week, Tankstation will be hosting an open market, clothing swapping, symposium of talks, workshops and more. Check out the dates and times of each event below.

Stay tuned here for more info about each individual event.

You can refresh your wardrobe without the need to buy new clothes. Just bring your clothes and exchange them at the shop created by our friends at OverLap!

Movie Night

Let’s have a chill evening and watch a movie that covers some environmental issues which we can discuss together afterwards.

DINNER + LIVE BAND: LOS PIRAÑAS

Come by and enjoy a delicious dinner (18:00), grab some drinks, and dance the night away to our live band all the way from Columbia!

>>> CLICK HERE TO RESERVE YOUR PLATE <<<

Every now and then, traditions need to be redefined.

The music scene in Bogota, Colombia is renewing its traditional music. Vallenato, Peruvian Chicha, Colombian Raspa, Champeta Criolla, African sounds and Cumbia all make part of the new style that is exposed in the Colombian music scene. Bands such as Los Pirañas, Meridian Brothers, Frente Cumbiero and Chupame El Dedo all are inspired to combine modern experiments with traditional music, while still keeping it danceable and loads of fun.

Of those bands, who all have the same pool of rotating musicians, Los Pirañas has the rawest of performances, with an out of control computer, a distorted Surf/Peruvian Chicha´s guitar and a rhythmic madman behind the drums.

Los Pirañas revel with humour, noise, none solemnity and a hard groove a lysergic surprise, perfect to enjoy the psychedelic connections between Champeta, Afrobeat, Rock and Cumbia.

DINNER + LIVE BAND: FLYING MOON IN SPACE

Come by and enjoy a delicious dinner (18:00), grab some drinks, and dance the night away to our live band coming in from Germany!

>>> CLICK HERE TO RESERVE YOUR PLATE <<<

A shape-shifting blend of driving Krautrock aesthetics, vivid psychedelic pop and techno-indebted electronics, Flying Moon In Space’s ambitious first full-length album was released recently with Fuzz Club Records.

Although they cite influences that span the likes of Can, Neu!, Brian Eno and Godspeed You! Black Emperor, ‘Flying Moon In Space’ is an album indebted to the band’s own experimental live approach more than anything else.

Flying Moon In Space are a six-piece band from Leipzig, Germany born out of live improvisations experimenting with different rhythms, layers of sounds and other textures which are known to last hours at a time. Their improvised live shows typically see them perform with four guitars, bass, drums and vocals, resulting in huge walls of sound that are awash with hypnotic motorik beats and orchestral walls of reverb.

VEGAN DINNER + LIVE BAND: MONSIEUR DOUMANI

Come by and enjoy a delicious dinner (18:00), grab some drinks, and dance the night away to our live band all the way from Cyprus!

The members of this trio come from Nicosia (Cyprus) but all have different musical backgrounds. However, they are all anamored of the traditional Cypriotic music on various levels. Their compositions combine traditional Cypriot sounds as well as the shaky conditions of today’s era forming a style distinctively their own.

With their new album, released by Glitterbeat in September 2021, they take it one step further, adding a full, raw-edged psychedelic sound to their music. Their music is sometimes reminiscent of vintage Greek styles, other times of 70s Turkish psychpop and psychrock, but always with their own, distinctive flavor.

In those 10 years Monsieur Doumani played successful concerts all over the world, from Womad to Sziget, from Paradiso to Mupa.

CHRISTIAN KUITERT
Straight from Enschede, songwriter Christian Kuitert holds your attention with a mix of slow rock, bathroom blues and fiery folk with a pinch of melancholy in his Dutch lyrics. He draws his inspiration from Dutch bands such as De Dijk and Spinvis. It is music with a message and the occasional wink – so much needed in these times.

LILOE RIX
Liloe Rix is a songwriter, guitarist and performer from Amsterdam, but with firm roots in the East of the Netherlands. She makes music as an exploration where she connects with her inner emotions. She loves to perform live, to come together with her audience and create an awesome energy in the room.

Music is emotion. Her songs are little stories, a journey to finding answers. Liloe wants to share her stories. With you.

YOGA + DINNER + LIVE BANDS: STUDIO SHAP SHAP & DAWN OF A NEW WORLD

Come by and enjoy a delicious dinner (18:00), grab some drinks, and dance the night away to our live band all the way from Niger, plus a local supporting band!

STUDIO SHAP SHAP
In November 2015, a new radio station was establishing itself in Niamey, Niger. To diffuse quickly they were looking for musicians to create a series of music jingles. The request: create 27 musical pieces in just 3 days. The members of Studio Shap Shap knew one another well and took on the challenge. The contract was completed “shap shap”, which means ‘’quickly and well done’’. The creative energy pushed them to continue this new adventure together. Studio Shap Shap was born.

Music is the common language amongst the group. The members are of different origins, generations and stories. One goal: make Africa heard in a new and different way.

Two of the members, bass player Arobasse and mola and komsa player Ousselni were both members of one of the best bands from Niger: Mamar Kassey. Percussionist Maï Douma played with Mamane Barka before and has a foot technique for changing the pitch of the drum like the Dutch jazz drummer Han Bennink.

In April 2016 the first album was created and was named after the neighbourhood where the musicians meet: Château 1. Studio Shap Shap creates a tradi-modern sound that is full of samples of the natural and the urban world, traditional and electronic sounds, speech and song intertwined. In 2018 they toured Europe for the first time.

DAWN OF A NEW WORLD…

…intends to take you to another place; a vast place of moving sound, deep bass and brightening atmospheres, away from the nihilism of everyday life.

It connects modern electronic (dance-)music with cinematic influences to create a dynamic and melodic experience. It’s music features influences of Odesza, Parra for Cuva, Jon Hopkins and Max Cooper. These sources of inspiration are at the base of a kind of music where the listener can be taken to another dimension.

Live Dawn of a New World combines and loops his arrangements using percussion, drums, vocals and keys.
