About
This is not the soundtrack to John Cusack's movie, like the title might trick you into thinking, but rather a great record by a collective of Brussels-based musicians who really understood the potential of crossover and adopted it to make it their very own language.
Established in 1994 by eclectic multi-instrumentalists Marc Van Eyck and Philippe Boulon (also founding members of acclaimed Beglian marocca'n'roll group Largo) and later joined by guitarist Pierre Vervloesem (producer of Deus, member of X-Legged Sally and A Group among others), engineer & machine man Renaud Houben, a Bengali singer, an Arab singer, a Maroccan singer/dancer, an African percussionist and a number of other musicians and special guests performing a great visionary blend of electronica, world music and rock on instrumentation that ranges from the classic electronic/electric/rock set-up to unusual and even unheard things such as medival computer, waliha, short scaled bass guitar, five strings guitar, Hamelrijk accordion, pillar, bombarde, bendir, spanish claps and many others. (...)
"Serendipity" (Happy Meeting) is an ideal title to represent the successful outcome of the encounter of all these musicians and their instruments and if you have an open mind and you like open-minded music, it should definitely be the next CD to go in your record collection.
