29.08.2020 Gallery | A movement research to redefine the perfect body.

11.05.2020 Club | Thoughts on this spring in and around De School.

08.05.2020 Club | We spoke to Lara and Estela, about home cooking and some tips and tricks to give us all a fresh wave of inspiration.

17.04.2020 Club | "With all our favourite places closed, it seems like the beautiful parks and nature in and around Amsterdam gets more appreciation than ever before. And even while not able to fully enjoy it, spring is in full swing outside; colourful flowers and pollen allergies included."

06.03.2020 Club | Our March weekender starts tonight and both JASSS and CEM play twice. Besides their own sets on Sunday, they'll be closing off our basement together tonight. In fact, the full weekender was build around this radio show where JASSS and CEM play together. So, we wanted to hear more about what makes them such a great duo in (and outside of) the booth.

04.03.2020 Club | We caught up with DJ Plead in advance of his set: covering underappreciated DJs, poorly thought-out closing tracks and kitchen storage units.

19.02.2020 Gallery | Going in to the final weekends of Regeneration, we sat down with curator Josephine de Fijter to hear more about the process of selecting and discovering artists, and her vision behind the exhibition.

14.02.2020 Club | "I believe there is so much value in appealing to this rather unique sense of childlike play: a rarity in our modern lives. The sun rises, everyone is in a squishy pile around the room. Time to enjoy the unique grace of levity and meditative mindfulness!"

13.02.2020 Club | What's happening in and around De School in March.

06.02.2020 Club | "Each one of my pieces is an exploration of a new experience for me, which is what experimentation is all about. After 10 years of making pop music and then dance music, I felt it necessary to let everyone know where my roots are. I struggle with being boxed in as one kind of artist or another and sometimes I have to assert the fact that genre classification is not only unnecessary when it comes to art, but is actually a damaging colonial practice (vague but perhaps more on that in the future)."

30.01.2020 Club | The release of his brand new album seemed like a good moment to talk to Hayden over email about growing up in NYC, sound design, why he wants to emphasize military aesthetics, and what queer spaces means to him.

24.01.2020 Club | Ahead of starting off the Friday night in our basement, we sat down to chat with Elena Colombi.

09.01.2020 Club | "Last few conversations we did more like a general music-we-like chit-chat, for this one, I thought it would be cool to go back to the making off format. A week ago, my roommate asked me: when do you take the time to really listen to a set that someone sends you? With all the lists, all the emails, all the mixes that people post etc., how can something stand out?"

03.01.2020 Club | Ahead of his return to our basement, we talked to Tzusing. Saturday he'll be playing alongside DJ Marcelle and Tutu.

30.12.2019 Club | After realizing she played De School most often from all resident DJs in 2019, we talked to Sandrien to look back a little bit, but mostly forward.

26.12.2019 Club | JP Enfant catches up with friend Rødhåd about his music, labels and gear.

24.12.2019 Gallery | "Amorfa immortal grew through a collision of the organic and the artificial that doesn’t necessarily clash or synthesize, but rather asks what happens when they cross pollinate."

19.12.2019 Gallery | In the midst of her exhibition at Cafe DS, we met up with Lisette Appeldorn to talk about her work.

17.12.2019 Other | On the 19th of December, various artists guide the listeners away from the daily distractions and into a contemplative state. Through music, it surveys the many forms that the now can take. But as obvious and given ‘the now’ seems, what do we mean when we talk about- or experience this now? Here on the blog, (perpetually in becoming) philosopher Aldo Kempen lifts a glimpse of the veil of the framing lecture that he will deliver on this night.

12.12.2019 Club | Looking back at 2019 and forward into the first month of a new decade with our programmers.

11.12.2019 Concert | On the 19th of December we’ll be hosting What About Now organised by Tamar Brüggemann and the Negative Space collective. Electronic and classical music, spatial sound and light, lectures, dance, and installations will be filling different parts of our building for 7 hours. We talked to Tamar and Boris to hear more about their plans for this evening.

05.12.2019 Club | "I hate the idea of trying to recreate a magic time or a moment. There’s already some sort of expectation. It’s the same for me with playing; I never want to try to recreate something even if it worked well on the dancefloor."

04.12.2019 Gallery | This Saturday Negative Space opens. Through installations and performances, Boris Acket, Nick Verstand, Salvador Breed, Marcel Smit and Poul Holleman investigate the perception of space as a medium. Each week the artist collective explores various spatial setups, varying light and spatial sound arrangements, creating an ever changing experience as their residency progresses.

28.11.2019 Club | Angelina Nikolayeva catches up with Phillip Jondo to talk recording mixtapes for his school friends, soundtracking soviet movies and producing solo, ahead of his return.

13.11.2019 Club | With the last nights of December added, our last month of the year is complete.

13.11.2019 Club | Ahead of his live set in our basement, we talked to Li Chao – half of A/V duo Zaliva-D.

18.10.2019 Club | We talked to the duo from Rotterdam ahead of their live set in our basement this Saturday night.
