Coming up! Playing at Worm Rotterdam on Tuesday 28

Coming up! Playing at Worm Rotterdam on Tuesday 28 March w/ Lennart Heyndels (BE) and Jean D.L. + Jef Martens (BE).

FROM WORM.ORG:
Men, with Machines! Be prepared to be electronically guided by three acts, two from ten zuiden ter grenzen and one cherished name on the Dutch alternative circuit! Snackbar! Music is our weapon. Sounds from the BeNeLux otherground are served with the following sauces (optional): Improv, Rauw, Nieuw, Anders.

Lennart Heyndels (BE)
Brussels-based and maker of genial and sometimes exquisite electronic sounds: Heyndels sees his music as something that can even make shy people dance. (well, a bit).

Hunter Complex (NL)
Haarlem's answer to Vangelis? Maybe. In any case, expect sweeping, romantic synths, programmed BLEEPS and all sorts of 1980s cinematic CHUTZPAH. A fabulous 'live thing'. His last LP Airports and Ports received some gushing reviews, too... 'Shuttles between ambient New Age, filmic nostalgia and improv exploration.' ★★★★ (4) MOJO Magazine / 'Airports and Ports by Hunter Complex is peerless, full of tranquility and sonic comfort' ★★★★★ (5) De Volkskrant

Jean D.L. + Jef Martens (BE)
Jean De Lacoste works as a musician and a video artist, creating imaginative soundscapes that provoke 'abstract emotions through the titillation of memories and fantasies'. Jean D.L. collaborated with Karen Willems, Mauro A. Pawlowski, Lee Ranaldo (Sonic Youth) and MachineFabriek amongst others. Jean is joined on this night by compatriot, guitarist Jef Mertens. Expect beautiful / atonal sonic landscapes.

This time you will be guided through three electronic acts by Lennart Heyndels (BE), Hunter Complex (NL), Jean D.L. + Jef Mertens (BE). Prepare yourself for something new and raw.

We will start the night off with Brussel-based maker of exquisite electronic sounds @lennart.heyndels and continue with Haarlem’s finest romantic synths (just like from the 80s) by @huntercomplex.

The Quiet Girl / An Cailín Ciúin (2022), directed by Colm Bairéad. Beautiful use of light in this heartbreaking film set in the rural Ireland of 1981.

Picked up some great records for a steal this weekend in Zwolle: Sound Trek (originally from '80) by Emerald Web, Deciphering the Message by @makayamccraven (w/ fantastic line-up!), Freedom 12" by Wham! (one of their best songs in a long version) and the debut by An Emotional Fish (from '90, with the brilliant track Celebrate).

Two Enno Velthuys reissues on @deadmindrecords: Ontmoeting ('82) and Landscapes in Thin Air ('84). Especially the last one is a real subdued ambient beauty.
