May 22: K@Rlab#9

My record label esc.rec. was invited to K@Rlab#9 for a label showcase. K@Rlab is the new soundlaboratory of K@R. And K@Rlab#9 is the very first adventurous music and sound festival that they host. It’s a three day festival and the line-up looks promising!

Saturday the 22nd is the first day and it features a lecture on independent art & music by Wouter Jaspers, live performances by Transfolmer, Staplerfahrer, Jacq Palinckx, Pierre Bastien and label presentations by the good folks of Lomechanik, Korm Plastics, Vatican Analog, Tonefloat and esc.rec. of course… A good line-up with a lot of familiar faces for all you esc.rec. connaisseurs.

Some more esc.rec. artists perform the next day in an electronic jamsession: Frans de Waard and Roel Meelkop.

Check the full line-up and more info overhere.

May 21: ass-crack stage-hack #10

Finally. A new edition of ass-crack stage-hack in Havenkwartier Deventer. Esc.rec. is celebrating the 1oth edition with glory and beauty by Greg Haines, Marcus Fjellström and Bas Mantel.

Greg Haines returns to the ass-crack stage-hack (see his previous show) to present his new album; minimal, modern classical compositions, oozing melancholy at times. Subtle use of electronics allows him to build his compositions carefully, layer by layer. For this concert he brings an extra cello/violin player.

Marcus Fjellström fuses contemporary classical music with experimental electronica and audiovisual works. His output ranges from orchestral compositions, through independent record label releases to collaborations with “Salad Fingers” creator David Firth. Lately he has teamed up with Dutch graphic designer and artist Bas Mantel for exciting audiovisual experiments, in both moving images and print… he also designed the poster for this ass-crack stage-hack.

Date: 21 mei 2010, 21:00 hrs.
Price: 10 euro
Location: Havenkwartier vmDavo, Mr. H. F. de Boerlaan 21151 (entrance Noordzeestraat), Deventer

Rockin’ Chair in Kunstcafé Oosterwolde

Marcel Prins booked my Rockin’ Chair for (the opening of) his exhibition with Birgit Speulman and Age Hartsuiker in Kunstcafé Oosterwolde. However, I sadly can’t be present at this event myself… which feels kind of weird. To not be there, while my chair gets some action… Today Marcel came to collect Rockin’ Chair. Supposedly he has also found someone who is willing to try playing it in public. I’m hoping for some decent photo and video footage, so I can enjoy this performance later.

Open: Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st of February, 13:00-18:00 hrs.

Update: Alex Kort played my Rockin’ Chair in Kunstcafé Oosterwolde.
