ZAKMES
Zakmes is a Utrecht-based solo project by Zakaria Messaoudi, who pretty much takes all tasks upon himself from production to songwriting to recording to mixing. A mix between Emo, Pop, Pop Punk and electronic music with a unique twist. With that sound he stands at the pedestal of the Lowlands emo movement. You can expect honest lyrics, melodic guitar riffs, and melancholic sounds, and mosh pits with friends. Live, Zakmes is backed by his band.
‘Like this. Zakmes takes heavy inspiration from bands and artists like: Blink 182, American Football, Tigers Jaw, Title Fight, Modern Baseball, Nothing Nowhere, and Tiny Moving Parts. Even though Zakmes is emo & pop-punk at its core he doesn’t mind genre bending. a rap verse here, a jazz guitar solo there, a Drum & Bass drum part here and again.
It feels like: Being happy, falling in love AND out of love, meeting friends, playing Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 4 At Midnight, missing friends, dealing with life, dealing with death, skateboarding on summer evenings, walks on fall afternoons, laughing, crying, moshing, dancing, hugging, and doing ALL of that with your 4 best friends in the 90’s and early 2000’s.
GET SAD
Eager to expand the alternative emo/post-hardcore horizon in the Netherlands, Amsterdam based rockband Get Sad started experimenting with combining different genres and sounds they’ve admired since they
were in their early teen years.
The result is a compelling, energetic blend of genres such as Pop-Punk, Post-Hardcore and shoegaze. “Let’s get sad together, and make this world a better place.”
