Venediktos Tempelboom
Support: Jean DL - Jef Mertens duo
December 3rd - van Disselhuis - Geel
Join Taping Policies for a new show by Venediktos Tempelboom with support by Jean DL & Jef Mertens as we once again reverberate sounds at Het Van Disselhuis in Geel.
Venediktos Tempelboom recently delivered an amazing tape on the KRAAK label, apptly titled ‘Het Vuil Volkske’.
Here’s what KRAAK says:
“Ghent-based wanderer Benoit Monsieurs has been exploring the many routes paved by the primitive folk guitarists of legend and is now carving out his own path as Venediktos Tempelboom. After last year’s transcendentally pastoral Het Ruist EP on KRUT comes a first outing on KRAAK, Het Vuil Volkske, where his 12-string guitar ruminations find another mystical avenue in tape form.”
Jean De Lacoste is simultaneously a musician and a video artist, but the approach he has to organized sounds and organized images seems reversed – his music, either when he plays the guitar or when he uses field recordings, is an imagetic and somewhat hazy soundscape, while his musically structured films try to provoque abstract emotions through the titillation of memories and fantasies.
Jef Mertens is also best known as a documentary filmmaker but he has been creating his own musical path the past two years. He uses his guitar to create textural and abstract landscapes.
On this evening they will perform as a duo live for the first time.
