FRESH TALENT
(demo's & beginning bands)


Soon "Signal to Noise"

Soon: Roaring, explosive guitars dipped in a melodic structure, a careful mix of fragile and solid fragments to prepare a powerful sound, a spoonful of frenzy and a fair amount of passion and drive. Spiced up with some Fugazi, Kashmir, Reiziger, Sonic Youth, ...


The Dallas Explosion "This is The Dallas Explosion Baby"

The Dallas Explosion is not a band, it's the solo project of Geoffrey "Dallas" Hautvas. He's the one who writes the songs, records them (with the precious help of few friends), finds the gigs, the musicians and why not a record deal!


LiNK "The Silent Fight"

Mixing the emotional voice of a female lead singer with various contemporary pop-rock styles, is the way LiNK describes itself. The singer is Chantal Vanderstichelen, the styles progrock, wave, disco. The name LiNK.


Franki "Embrace"

Independent single release of Franki, the singer: Joe Jackson, Gavin Friday, Engelbert Humperdinck, Marianne Faithfull, Eddy Wally & the virgin Mary united in one persona. And with the help of Bent Van Looy, Armand Bourgoignie ...

PasseVite

Two-song demo from PaseVite, a dutch-singing band from Schoten (Antwerp), bringing slightly commercial poprock .


Mildew "Chinaski"

Demo with the nickname of Bukowski, and other songtitles such as "Barfly" and "German Hangover". The music ranges from Sonic Youth to metal, and at least the title-song is well-worth listening to.

7-track demo from a group from Genk who explain their name - contrary to what you might think looking at the cover - as a term from Shakespearian theater.

Multimedia enhanced, too ...


Tongue

4-song demo by four musicians, drums-bass-keyboards-guitar, who play something that is not easy to qualify : the music of Tonge is a rich mix of pop, ambient, lo-fi, noise, new-wave and Krautrock.
