Biographie
With Slumberland, Belgian musician, composer and instrument maker Jochem Baelus has been unleashing obscure, hypnotic krautrock and postpunk colored with distorted exotica, upon us since 2013.
Slumberlands tactile sound is generated by a battery of sewing machines, film projectors and other dismantled, mechanical objects. So far, he released a solo album,the 2019 release 'Sea, sea, sea Drifter // See, see, see Drifter', joined by 2 drummers and a recent collaboration with Tuvan voice-artist Sainkho Namtchylak released on the Berlin based record label Morphine Records.
He has been invited by numerous adventurous music festivals like CTM, Le Guess Who, Rewire, BRDCST, Meakusma for his vivacious live performances. But now Jochem Baelus is back on the road solo with his latest sound sculpture. Expect rattling drones of motoric 'bagpipes' grinding, accompanied by compelling, melodic & minimal compositions, hypnotic rhythmical clusters and complete stillness.
