[Music] Benjamin Clementine live at the Burberry Menswear January 2016 show

I have about zero interest in Burberry Menswear. It’s not my thing, though I can see where it would appeal to those who get a kick out of clothing. This video was supposed to highlight Burberry’s line of clothing, but that gets smashed immediately by the arresting voice of Benjamin Clementine, a man who, shockingly, spent part of his teenage years living as a homeless person. He’s really got quite a future ahead of him.

– This music is much more than a meeting of Turkish and West African musical styles. There is a poetic eloquence here that compels the listener to respond in a visceral and emotional manner. It is music that gently demands deep listening, and inspires introspection and the unveiling of new insights. – Doobeedoobeedoo, USA

Note: The Mehmet Polat Trio is currently preparing to record the second album ‘Ask Your Heart’, expected to be released in Autumn 2016. Please stay in contact for upcoming news.

[Music] Presenting signature improvisation sets by Ada Rave/solo reeds and ‘SPOON3’ trio

The Netherlands is blessed with some of the most amazing performance venues in the world, if you like improv or World Music. It’s time I consider a long visit.

‘Music doesn’t exist. At most it’s an illusion’.
– Misha Mengelberg

SET 1 > SOLO
Ada Rave/tenor+soprano sax+clarinet+preparations

Ada Rave > moving nearly 3 years ago from Buenos Aires to Amsterdam > is an active and powerful voice in Amsterdams’ improvisation scene, deserving close attention by any non-conformist improvisation lover.

‘SPOON 3’
Jodi Gilbert/voice
Robert van Heumen/laptop processing
Albert van Veenendaal/piano+prepared piano

‘In many aspects a band that crosses many styles. In the challenging trio combination piano, voice and laptop, voice uses unpolished if not absurdistic raw texts light years away from any jazz historical scat reference, laptop disturbing and supporting voice and prepared piano expressions into an amalgam of unpredictable sonic adventures’.
