Culture

Get ready for MEGATRON with this cool line-up: Vatican Analog, Geseling, Radical Vitality, Awenydd, Het Concreet and DJ Melted.

Vatican Analog

A collective/label from Tilburg where various forms of noise, soundscapes, drones and other experimental music come together in diverse projects. In addition to releasing various sound carriers and other artistic expressions by affiliated musicians, Vatican Analog also organises concerts and festivals.

Geseling

Harsh noise with a focus on creating dense walls of noise and feedback by means of scrap metal, field recordings and crude textures recorded straight to tape.

Radical Vitality

Japanoise-inspired project by Caspar van der Veen, who also is Netherlands’ imminent expert on North Korea. You may have seen him on tv or read one of his books. Don’t put him on the spot for autographs.

Awenydd

Awenydd self-released tapes started to pop up in 2023. This Dutch project is still new to most, but it has been receiving lots of praise in the noise underground recently, and no wonder why; the sounds are skillfully crafted with mature production and an enjoyable old-school vibe. Musically, ‘Gwyar’ swims somewhere within the harsh power electronics spectrum but avoids the typical PE topics. Instead, it introduces a more abstract, even cosmic atmosphere, that is truly channeling the inner landscapes of the artistic mind.

Het Concreet

Het Concreet explores the domain of sound. In the studio of Het Concreet, analog sound techniques find their way into the present. In the spirit of the analog music pioneers of the last century – Éliane Radigue, Brian Eno, Pierre Schaeffer – Het Concreet is working on tomorrow’s experimental music.

DJ Melted

Lives and works in Tilburg. His work has been exhibited in many museums and exhibition spaces in cities such as New York, Brussels, Düsseldorf, Berlin, Amsterdam, Utrecht, Tilburg, Japan and Brazil. To be honest, his international career is taking off. His work has been included in museum collections, corporate collections and private collections around the world. Not to mention Jennifer Lopez's private collection.

Making Corpsepaint masks

Corpse paint is a style of body painting, used mainly by black metal bands for concerts and band photos. The body painting is used to make the musicians appear inhuman, corpse-like, or demonic, and is perhaps the most identifiable aspect of the black metal aesthetic. Corpse paint typically involves making the face and neck white (or pale), sometimes with red marks to signify blood or laceration, and making the area around the eyes and mouth black. Musicians will often have a trademark style.
