Music.Games is a VEGA project that brings video game music from the digital world to life on stage. Through concerts, sound installations, and visual experiences, it celebrates game composers and musicians who create the immersive soundscapes that gamers dive into. The project explores how games and music merge as art forms and invites both gamers and music lovers to experience video game music in a new way. The first concert under Music.Games will feature the Czech artist Floex.

In his new project, Floex Ensemble, composer, producer, and clarinetist Tomáš Dvořák returns to the essence of music, embracing pure magic and stripped-down beauty. A chamber sextet breathes life into Dvořák’s compositions, many arranged by multi-instrumentalist Jan Šikl. 

The performance features material from Floex's soundtracks that shaped the spirit of beloved PC games like Machinarium, Samorost, and Papetura by Amanita Design, alongside rearrangements of his studio work. 

Floex is also a multimedia artist, blending music with innovative projects, such as his robot drummer, Josef, who accompanies him in live shows and DJ sets. He comes to Vega with a customized ensemble, inviting local musicians to join him. 

As the machines dance, the body immerses itself in digital realms, embracing the coolness of virtual spaces. Floex serves as a mediator, bridging the heat of dance, the expression of live music, and the precision of electronic scores. He enriches these spheres, delivering pure, exhilarating energy. With the Ensemble project, he reveals a subtle yet urgent side of neo-classical music. 

The Forest Quartet:
The band behind the award-winning The Forest Quartet performs an experimental jazz concert. Through a dreamy mix of traditional jazz, improvisation, synthetic soundscapes and fragments of dialog from The Forest Quartet video game, they create a concert experience that balances between the meditative and the intense.
