k not k / The Musical Game of Chess + Support: Katana

One of Eastern Europe’s most exciting musical exports, Karpov not Kasparov began making music based on the rules and strategies of chess. It might seem complicated but the output is always a very danceable tune. There are some classical allusions and plenty of Oriental flavours (because chess is an Oriental game) and there’s always a powerful dance-floor bass-driven sound that makes you jump and shout.

During the past 8 years, the duo played on club or cultural stages all over Europe, and also for festivals like Nuits Sonores, Printemps de Bourges, Fusion, Electric Castle, Untold, Telekom Electronic Beats, Eurosonic, Tallin Music Week, Ment, Sinsal, Stereoleto etc The band played in 38 out of 44 European countries + Russia and Israel. Some of these stages were shared with great bands like GusGus, Underworld, AltinGun, Poni Hoax etc
