dwars portrait

the puddle parade — Fri, 08 Apr 2011 13:08:48 +0000

some time ago i posted the songs i recorded during the radio/studio session i did for the radio show dwars somewhere in november 2009. back then they also ask me some stuff about my music in an interview and now they assembled the interview and the songs into a portrait. i’m kind of used to hearing my own voice when singing, but not when talking .. didn’t know i talk with such speed and accent .. i think i was so hyper-nervous that i sometimes forgot to breathe :)

anyways, if you understand dutch or if you’re just curious about my dutch listen to the radio portrait here.

ps: dwars is kind of the dutch complement of the peel sessions, so you might also want to check out their streamable archive!! they had all my favorite artists playing sessions, from mount eerie, colleen, ignatz, trouble books, tara jane o’neil, julie doiron, to hood, tarentel, machinefabriek and wouter van veldhoven, and even tortoise, low, arab strap, pedro the lion and the black heart procession .. to name just a few.. sigh :)

dwars session

the puddle parade — Thu, 08 Jul 2010 15:35:09 +0000

in november last year, i was invited to record a radio/studio session for the radio show dwars. when i just moved to the netherlands dwars was the only thing i would listen to on the radio. they always had my favorite artists (to be) invited and their radio sessions were notorious. i’d say they are the dutch peel sessions. (if you don’t believe me, check out their archive!!) now the on air radio part got cut, like all non-mainstream media.. so now i have also nothing to listen to anymore .. on the real radio at least.. luckily dwars still exists online.. phew :) and now they invited me. i’ve seen berry kamer, who presents the show, a few times before in real life.. but it was funny to really talk to the sonorous voice i listened to so many nights! anyways, they put online what i had produced. hope you enjoy.

listen to my dwars session here.

here’s some of the stuff i used :)
