Found myself getting totally lost in the music, just vibing along, no sense for time or space. (Besides the fact that the sound guy seemed to have a problem which he apparently couldn’t fix until the end)
Went there with Chris, was a great night. I am a huge fan of Maarten. His solo music is much more chill than Balthazar, and it’s definitely different and slower compared to a Balthazar concert. But the guy is great, an incredibly talented musician. And I love it when he holds his guitar up under his chin.
Marteen’s concerts, both for Balthazar and Warhaus, are not just songs from the album but-it’s-live. Instead, he rethinks the songs and how they could work live, creating a very unique experience.
The first solo was kind of weird? It felt like the guitarist and the drummer had no idea what to do. But maybe they were just being musical geniuses, who knows.
Lagerfeuer Deluxe, an unplugged concert with 3 artists: Haller, Cäthe and Enno Bunger. Of course, when Enno is in town, I have to go there. Very nice atmosphere, good music and needless to say Enno’s set was just incredible.
This was one of the best concerts I have ever seen. I was so blown away after the first song that I had to yell “holy fuck”. It sounded so incredible. The drums were super tight, everyone was putting all their energy into the music, and it’s unbelievable how good Marcel Veenendaal sounds live.
If you’ve never heard of DI-RECT (they’re quite popular in the Netherlands but not so much here in Germany), I highly recommend you check them out. This radio concert is how I found them, and I don’t understand how it only has 20k views.
