diwali avond - celebration of light ☆ nikita's thattukada / all india stereo & friends: vintage voudou & Jeet

Farid, Nikita and Tara have come together to share their connection to home with you, carried through the sounds, the tastes of India and the celebration of diwali.
We invite you to join us for a diwali dinner where we share the essence of diwali through plates of biryani by Nikita and sounds by All India Stereo & friends. You will be surrounded by stories & visuals that speak the spirit of diwali and what it can mean to each one of us.
Nikita’s Thattukada:
Though I’ve never lived in India, its flavours tie me to my heritage, places I know through meals shared with loved ones. Cooking became my way to carry these stories with me to Amsterdam. At Nikita’s Thattukada, I don’t just cook dishes. I share warmth, love, and the feeling of home. This collaboration is my way of inviting you into that story, one plate at a time.
All India Stereo & friends:
All India Stereo and friends are bringing you a mix of South Asian music blended with global sounds- funk, disco, percussion-heavy tunes and some jazz, accompanied by different sounds of the diaspora with electronic, bass and dub focus. Rich and fun sounds of their heritage, they’re playing both vinyl and digital selections.
vintage voudou:
vintage voudou is an Amsterdam-based label specialising in tropical records, soul, funk, reggae, Bollywood, and Tamil music, celebrating global rhythms and cultural influences.
jeet:
JEET is a British-Indian artist playing out of London. A lover of low-end psychedelia, sound system culture and South-Asian devotional music, his sets seek to meld sounds and textures from across the board often incorporating the likes of swirling tablas, sitar riffs and ragas with elements of dub, trance, electro, techno and dubstep. Having cut his teeth playing across the free party scenes of India he has returned to London co-founding Earthworm - an event, mix series and soon to be label championing leftfield dance music. His set on the 19th promises to explore the synthy and acidy textures of old-school Bollywood disco and its intersection with forward-thinking leftfield dance music.
