Drone All Night

ZZZZZZZZZ: Drone All Night expands our transcendental sound dozing experience into a 12-hour overnight canopy of continuous sound journey, weaving tones including gong baths, theremins, plant synthesizers, cassette loops, poetry, ambient drones, vinyl DJ sets, and more. Drift into a nap, wrapped in experimental soundscapes from moonrise to sunrise.

Tickets are available for 3 different zones (6-10pm, 10:15pm-2am, and 2:15-6am) ($10–$20) and as an All-Night ZZZZZZZZZone Out Pass ($30–$50). All proceeds go support renovations for Rhizome’s new home on Alaska Avenue. TICKETS

Late Night Etiquette: We ask attendees to be mindful of noise so as not to disturb our neighbors late at night.

Set at ZAP Outdoors

ZAP Outdoorz is a festival that brings together top electronic and punk acts from the DMV plus out-of-region favorites for a weekend campout in Appalachia. Our mission is to bridge worlds and move bodies, embrace our raw edges as humans, and ignite our collective energy. Organic by nature and intimate by design, we are at once a reverie and a homecoming, an annual celebration of what has been, what is, and what ought to be.

Premiere of All Things That Disappear, a collaborative project with pianist Ning Yu, as part of ‘Piano Realities’

As one of the foremost pianists of her generation, Yu is a champion of adventurous contemporary works, particularly those that incorporate aspects of sonic technology.
