RUDY TROUVE SEPTET

RUDY TROUVE SEPTET
The Rudy Trouvé Septet was formed around Rudy Trouvé around 2001, by that time a quintet. Rudy's biographie is huge, he was/is key-character of bands like Kiss My Jazz, Lionell Horrowitz, dEUS, Dead Man Ray, Rudy & the Wally's and The Love Substitutes. Most of the songs are about his daily life, fear, love and boredom, these themes also re-appear in his paintings. Many of his musical compositions are referring to his extensive record collection, and influences of Chet Baker, Joy Division, Rip & Panic and The Stooges are highly apparent. Besides playing in all different bands on account of getting bored with a single style after a while, and thus keeping things fresh, Rudy was released solo in 2000 on 'subsonic 6', an album with him on one side, and Lou Barlow on the other (on the vinyl version, it also was released as a CD). The album was released by the label 'Rosa'. This was merely a collection of old 4-tracks, and a few new ones for the occasion. The first true Rudy Trouvé band release on Heavenhotel was released May 2002, the single 'une chanson', which preceded the first full CD '1999-2002'. By the next CD, titled 2002-2003 the quintet was upgraded to sextet:: Rudy Trouvé (guitar, voice) , Sigrid Van Rosendaal (trumpet, keyboards) , Aarich Jespers (drums), Elko Blijweert guitar, keyboards), Dimitri Daggelinck (bass), Geert van Bever (Guitar). For the coming release planned in September 2007 Joris Caluwaerts (piano) was added and once more the band was upgraded, and called the Septet.

Ariel Pink

Ariel Pink
Ariel Pink (born Ariel Marcus Rosenberg on June 24, 1978) is an indie pop/tag] musician who is based in Los Angeles. Pink has been recording his music on tape since 1996 but it wasn't until after he passed a CD-R to the New York-based band Animal Collective that his commercial musical career took off. He attended Beverly Hills High School in Beverly Hills, California. Later attending the School of Art at the California Institute of the Arts. Married to Alisa Daniels, July 2002 - still married. He has since caught the attention of various media sources, especially in the Los Angeles area. As most of his albums are self-made, many of them have never been heard by fans. The only albums which have been commercially released come from his "Haunted Graffiti" series and are thus the best known. Pink produces and plays almost all of his own music, and is noted for creating drum sounds using primarily his mouth, and sometimes his armpits. His home recording technique gives his music a very lo-fi sound, to the point where new listeners may mistake the era of his music. Pink cites R. Stevie Moore--friend, mentor, and "father of home recording"--as one of his major influences. He is sometimes associated with the new weird america movement, and could also be considered an embodiment of 'The New Sincerity'. Pink boasts a cult following and endorsements from more widely known artists such as fellow Paw Tracks artists Animal Collective. Aside from his music, Pink also makes semi-abstract and surreal grotesque drawings, which can be purchased from his unofficial website, ARIEL PINK haunted house, for a hefty price.

The Bear That wasn't

The Bear That wasn't
The Bear That Wasn't is Nils Verresen, een jongen met een gitaar en angelieke stembanden. Zijn naam ontleende The Bear That Wasn't aan een kinderboek van Frank Tashlin, met zijn liedjes leunt hij aan bij Gravenhurst, Elliott Smith en Bon Iver, Sufjan Stevens ook. The Bear That Wasn't tokkelt en fluistert over en voor fragiele zielen, warm en zacht en stil in drukke, donkere tijden.

In 2007 werd hij genomineerd voor de MySpace Award van Focus Knack, vorig jaar haalde The Bear That Wasn't de finale van Humo's Rock Rally net niet. 'Omdat daar traditiegetrouw slechts tien groepen mogen aantreden, viel hij net buiten de prijzen', schreef de jury. 'The Bear That Wasn't had songs, een sterke stem. Tot over twee jaar.' Deze zomer duikt The Bear That Wasn't de studio in. Zijn debuutplaat verschijnt in het voorjaar van 2010 via PIAS. In oktober al vertrekt hij voor een vol jaar op tournee door België. Via Facebook zocht en vond The Bear That Wasn't 365 vrienden die hem elk een dag onderdak willen bieden. In ruil zal The Bear That Wasn't zijn gastgezinnen verwarmen met zijn fluisterliedjes. Van dit unieke project verschijnt later een film van TRS, het talentvolle Brusselse productiehuis dat eerder meewerkte aan 'Part of the Weekend Never Dies', de tourdocumentaire van Soulwax.
