Wouter van Veldhoven Ambient, DIY electronica, instrumental (NL) – presented by Gaudemaus Wouter van Veldhoven uses his strange and vast collection of second hand materials to (re-) create instruments and recording techniques of his own. With cans, cigar boxes, broken radios, toy instruments and
modified tape recorders he ‘builds’ organically mesmerizing and tranquil compositions which in their nature are lo-fi and experimental, and allow your thoughts to wander off into places you didn’t even know could exist. In his own words, he uses old means to create new music. More info on page 24
Young Fathers Alternative hip-hop, lo-fi R&B (SC) When these three chaps emerged from a damp and dark Edinburgh basement, they surprised the world with something unlike anything we heard before. They combine structural elements of beat, rap and pop songs with reggaeton, electronic music, indie pop and traditional African music with a heavy emphasis on percussion and dark bass tones. In fact, the name Young Fathers represents their eagerness for innovation: to produce something so new and unique, there is no spiritual father let alone a name for.
