About - "Bongo"
Crock009
Release Date: March 19, 2006
Rutger Hoedemaekers began his debut album 3 years ago and
literally worked on it obsessively for a majority of that time. Having dealt
with 4 collapsed lu 222p1524c ngs while producing it, Rutger makes good by creating what
will surely be one of this years first major breakthrough records.
Straddling the realms of indy-rock, electronica, pure pop with a
tiny pinch of breakcore, he's created a masterful record full of songs that get
stuck in your head, full of tiny details you only hear after repeated
listening. But "Bongo" is far from another boring indy-tronica
record. It's got this slightly pissed-off edge to it while remaining both
literate and thoroughly gratifying. This intended liveliness in the music does
not come from letting the computer do just "whatever". It comes from
creating every little note and sound by hand, like carefully painting a
portrait instead of snapping a Polaroid.
But liveliness is what About is all, erm..., about. He's already been playing
some of the best festivals in the Netherlands, and has been winning fistfuls of
new fans at each show. We expect him to be touring like crazy in 2006,
and rightfully so. His live show expertly straddles the line between rock show
excitement and dance party ass shaking.
