Unearth X Strøm: Fennesz

About

Beneath Søndermarken, Cisternerne spans 4,400m2 across three connected chambers.
No daylight reaches the space, and its natural reverberation can last up to 17 seconds.

Cisternerne once held Copenhagen’s drinking water. Today, beneath Søndermarken, it remains an underground cathedral of brick arches, untouched by daylight, where a single sound can linger for up to 17 seconds.

For one night only, Unearth, a Copenhagen-based platform for experimental music and art, and Strøm, dedicated to electronic music and sound culture, transform the iconic subterranean space into an immersive encounter between sound, light and architecture.

Together, they present a newly composed sound work and a site-specific light installation created especially for Cisternerne, drawing on the site’s unique acoustics, darkness and monumental scale.

Light traces the vaulted ceilings, while sound moves through the archways, revealing the architecture in new and unexpected ways.
It will be a rare opportunity to experience Cisternerne through sound and light in an entirely new way.

The composition will play continuously throughout the evening within a site-responsive spatial installation by @unearth.cph…

What to expect

Expect a warm, easy crowd — busy enough to feel alive, calm enough to talk. It's built for meeting people — solo arrivals do fine here.

The essentials

Pricing is moderate, and the event runs Fri 18:00. You'll find it at Cisternerne — the surrounding blocks carry the same energy, so the night doesn't have to end at one address.
