It’s time for a little bit of live music boys ‘n girls. We’re proud to present to you Josiah & Liz Wolf performing at the awesome Ekko on November 9. While you read the rest of this post please start the video below first:

You might know Josiah Wolf from his band Why? who also performed at our very own Vette Analoge Shit night back in 2009. As off the 20th of this month the band will be touring through Europe again (tour dates here), but they unfortunately will not be playing in our little old country. Luckily for you Josiah and his lovely wife Liz will! And even luckier for us Dutchies: this will be the only show in the BeNeLux.

If you’re a (very) slow reader, the video above is done playing by now and you don’t need any more convincing (if you want some more though listen to Josiah on Spotify). So let’s jump to it:

My Bubba & Mi (DK)

RELEASE PARTY #1: Ow yes, our very own girly super trio will be presenting their debut album ‘How it’s done in Italy‘. Do yourself a favour and check out their album here. We promise this will be a show to remember.

Het Gloren (NL)

RELEASE PARTY #2: you can already preview one song of the upcoming debut ‘Glorie 1 2 3‘ on our site, but this night you’ll get the opportunity to be the first to listen to all the new songs by this Dutch singer-songwriter. Het Gloren will be accompanied by some musical friends (and family).

Kanipchen-Fit (NL / USA)

KANIPCHEN-FIT uses two voices, electric guitar, tambourine, maracas and minimal beats for optimum effect. The music is unsentimental, the lyrics try to stay ironic, taking on subjects as rain, late night braggadocio, love-starved strangers, heroic alcoholics and prison entertainment.

Correct us if we’re wrong, but we seems to be really good at this! Thao taught us some serious songwriting skills not to mention fingerpicking! Still psyched, we are heading towards the next edition of Vette Analoge Shit with Railcars, Neon Rainbows and Eklin. Do your homework!

Friday February 5th
(yet another edition of Vette Analoge Shit!)

Railcars (us)

And then there was Railcars, who recorded its first 7″ in the Kitchen of Xiu Xiu frontman Jamie Stewart. Railcars is an attempt to bring the images that have haunted Aria’s mind to life using drum boxes, synths, and noise pedals with sentiments recreated in lyrical form. The current four member line up for Railcars live performances was established by Jalali before touring with Handsome Furs in April 2008. Railcars can be compared to Jamie Stewards side project Former Ghosts, Wavves with a touch of Animal Collective. Ain’t that fresh!
listen to some tunes here!

Neon Rainbows

Straight forward rock comes from the hand of Neon Rainbows. These fellows gained quite some fame under the name of Fever dream. Since it’s not up to us to pull old cows out of the ditch we compare them with Les Savy Fav and Cursive.
listen to some tunes here!

Eklin

Last and least would be Eklin, formally known as Adept. About the ‘least’ thing we were kidding, Duh! These nice fellas bring you experimental electronics packed with oppressive and exceptionally dark energy! Lately they’ve added a Blonde Reddish girly person to their line up who treats eyes and ears…out of heressss!
listen to some tunes here!

Start: 21:00
Damage:  €7,00
Location: dB’s studio, CAB-Rondom 100, Utrecht

Social preparation HERE

Before we sit down with mama and papa bear and stuff our bellies with them puny christmasturkeys only to hit the slopes afterworths and enjoy a well deserved holiday a la France we have to deliver some good news to mankind: We’ve booked the fantastic Thao with the Get Down Stay Down for the first Vette Analoge Shit of the new year! Hooray for us.

Don’t know miss Thao yet? This is what KillRockStars had to say about her:

According to Thao Nguyen, she has two talents: her first is she has a knack for beat-boxing and humming at the same time (Rahzel needn’t worry about any competition just yet though…) and her second, and in her opinion finest, is that she had a capacity to watch so much TV as a kid, she’s convinced her personality is made up of several different sitcom characters. Of course Thao, the 23 year Virginia-bred songwriter, is forgetting her unique voice, natural sense for a good melody, and striking lyrics, skillful guitar plucking and her deadly dry sense of humour. Thao’s debut for Kill Rock Stars, showcases all these talents and more, proving she’s a star in the making.

Better yet. Listen to one of their songs and fill up that empty page in your agenda asap.

Thao w/the Get Down Stay Down – Know Better Learn Faster

Kismet will start off this sunday afternoon with their ruthless indiepop to get you all hyped up and ready to go. We’re starting off early this time, so you’ll be fresh and ready to go for the hell we call mondaymorning.

More info on the other half of this most awesome poster ever soon!

Pffff…Still recovering from the BEEP! BEEP!, LE GUESS WHO? pre-party. Right now we are heading towards the festival itself. So it’s time to get back to work again and tell you what you should do next…iifffff you live in Holland that is!  So I’m going to keep this one nice and short for my self. All text underneath is stolen. Still we do agree more or less

Ow and I included some listening pleasure as well. Check it!

Friday 27th, November @ Kargadoor, Utrecht

Moon & Sun plays the self-invented genre of Apocalypso. The resulting EP ‘Moon & Sun sings Apocalypso’ contains 4 of the most seducing songs that were made this year. Crackly triphop beats and the sultry voice of Tormell, mixed with Carribean rythms and surprising samples.

1. Moon & Sun – Ashes

Audiotransparent from Groningen is one of The Netherlands’ best and most underrated bands. Their melancholic songs are dressed in tasteful, hypnotic arrangements, with a creative use of strings and samples. Time to check them out and upperrate them! (OK this last sentence I wrote my self)

Ryland Bouchard (ex-The Robot Ate Me) occupies his own odd universe. With a high voice he sings strange indiepop songs on dark topics, such as his schizophrenic mother that was raped in prison by the prison guards, or his extremely religious brother who would regularly beat Bouchard up, for ‘religious’ reasons. Bouchard sometimes plays folk songs with an acoustic guitar, other times he’ll do indiepop with keyboards and drum computers, or he’ll suddenly start playing avant-garde compositions with clarinet and percussion. Live he lets the audience play an important role in the music. Just like Mount Eerie and The Flaming Lips, Ryland Bouchard has the courage to be ambitious and controversial. For the real connoisseurs.

1. Ryland Bouchard – Climb to the top

Doors: 20:00
Damage: 6 Euro

Friday the 25th of September our latest member of the family will present one beauty of a record named ‘Reverence for Fallen Trees‘. You might’ve seen it floating by on the internet being downloaded almost 30.000 times now and being praised on several websites. But you know us, a proper release needs a hardcopy release, so in db’s we’ll present the six-page digipack plus the limited 12″ vinyl edition of The Black Atlantics debut album. Best be there!

Of course there’s loads more of goodness around that night like Windmill & palloc. Read all about it below! …read more »
