Kraakpand #8 met o.a. I Love Sarah & Raymondo

Raymondo

“Raymondo” grew out of Christian Nolf's solo project “Belmondo”. When drummer Boris Gronemberger (Françoiz Breut), keyboard player Lobke d'Hespeel and guitarist Cédric Castus joined the project in September 2002, the name changed to Raymondo. In March 2004, Raymondo recorded 8 titles on the album of the same name.

The attractive vocal laziness of Lobke d'Hespeel has now made way for the equally beautiful Aurélie Müller (formerly Melon Gallia). The foursome released their second album in October 2006.

Raymondo's music is entwined in a hybrid mixture of folk, bossa nova and pop and in terms of atmosphere it is increasingly closer to a cross between Jim O'Rourke. , Spain, Alfie, Nick Drake and Talk Talk.

Dashboard Darling

Dashboard Darling has an incredibly addictive sound. A sultry female voice rarely does a bad job, but Martine Van Hoof's takes you by the scruff of the neck to her lips. And we guarantee you'll be hanging there for the entire set! Beautiful lyrics and the compelling music lines of bassist Pieter Vreede, drummer Dino Verrienti and guitarist Sam Malec make this an almost universally appreciated whole. The group is inspired by “sweet country music on an old steel guitar”. Anyone who is occasionally up for a round of tear-jerking drama will succumb to Dashboard Darling!

I Love Sarah

'I Love Sarah' consists of Rudy Perdu (on guitars, saxophones and eastern vocals) and Jani Jani (on drums, percussions, keys, eastern and western vocals). In their own words, this duo treats the audience to “muzaknoise”. Goformusic also describes it as “armpit-fresh rattle pop”. On Kindamuzik it can be read: “The drummer had talent, the avant-garde pop level was high, they set things on fire, covered De Kreuners, used Casio sound effects without being outlandish, changed tempo like Frank VDB of cycling team and overcame every technical glitch.” This is how you hear it from someone else: you just have to get out of your seat for this group!
