Kris VANDERSTRAETEN
“Trommels!”
Kris Vanderstraeten: Percussion, Snares & Objects. Recorded live at Zuiderpershuis for the Oorstof series, organized by Sound in Motion/Oorstof, 23 November 2014 Recorded, mixed and mastered by: Michael W. Huon, Brussels, 2016. LP edition of 300.
Percussionist Kris Vanderstraeten is one of the unsung heroes of Belgian free improvisation. Since the seventies, he has been experimenting with his unique set-up and different collaborations: the trio Sureau, a duo with Timo Van Luijk, several performances/recordings with young experimentalists. Trommels!, the second release by Dropa Disc, is also Vanderstraeten’s second solo album. It lures the listener into a universe without rules, a place where intuition and imagination decide what happens. Vanderstraeten does not play by the rules, he pushes them to the max. His drum kit isn’t just an instrument: it becomes a sound generator to explore the maximal potential of texture, dynamics and space.
