On July 17, 2025, at Berlin’s acoustic space Morphine Raum, two internationally acclaimed musicians, Riki Hidaka and Oren Ambarchi, will create a unique night of spontaneous improvisation.

With no rehearsals or setlists, this performance relies solely on the chemistry of sounds born in the moment. Reacting instantly to each other’s breath, space, and resonance, their soundscapes will never be repeated.

The distinctive atmosphere of Morphine Raum adds depth to this sonic experiment, inviting the audience on a one-time-only journey. This is a live experience to not just hear, but truly feel.

A singular event in a singular space. Don’t let it pass you by.
