Joachim Badenhorst’s Carate Urio Orchestra
Musically, Carate Urio Orchestra balances somewhere on a tightrope between indie pop songs and noise buzz. Little endearing singer-songwriter songs can derail into apocalyptic chaos or vice versa, all within the span of a blink of an eye or three.
The international group around the Antwerp reeds player Joachim Badenhorst released four albums between 2013 and 2017: Sparrow Mountain (2013, Klein), Lover (2016, Klein), Ljubljana (2016 Cleanfeed), Garlic&Jazz (2017, Klein) and toured during that period. throughout Europe and the United States. In recent years it has been quiet around the group, but Badenhorst has brought the Carate Urio Orchestra back together, with new crunchy music, written for a slightly new line-up.

Perselí (Fuensanta Méndez / Alistair Payne / José Soares)
Perselí is a jazz trio that brings together musicians from Mexico, Portugal and Scotland: Fuensanta sings and plays double bass, José plays saxophone and Alistair plays trumpet. They found each other in their respect for vulnerability, sensitivity to sound and their constant path of exploring new grounds. Translating music with different influences to stories that develop unhurriedly, like an imitation of flowers, leaves and life without fear. The trio is based in Amsterdam. They improvise, write music and poetry without getting into conflict.
