About Kamizdat Rentgen

Kamizdat Rentgen is a glance under the surface of the skin, a look into the fleshy entwinement of bones, muscles and nerves that shape the heterogeneity of the sound bodies. It is a series of music events organized by Kamizdat to increase the visibility of adventurous music makers who dare to venture into the territories where no one had been before. The events are often closely connected with the label’s new releases.

Produced by Emanat in collaboration with Kino Šiška Centre for Urban Culture and with the support by the City of Ljubljana and the Ministry of Culture RS.
