KASSA OVERALL (US) + MARTANIEL EXPERIMENT
About
KASSA OVERALL // Warp Records (US)
 
Kassa Overall is a Grammy-nominated musician, emcee, singer, producer and drummer who melds avant-garde experimentation with hip-hop production techniques to tilt the nexus of jazz and rap in unmapped directions. 
 
On his first two studio albums GO GET ICE CREAM AND LISTEN TO JAZZ and I THINK I’M GOOD, Kassa layered virtuosic drumming, meticulous production techniques, and incisive lyricism to establish himself as a rhythmic innovator and visionary poet, using his voice to address the injustices of the carceral system, the pharmaceutical industry, and anti-black racism, while wrangling with the perils of his own mental illness.
 
On ANIMALS, his Warp Records debut, Kassa pushes his kaleidoscopic, subversive vision further. He layers Roland 808s against avant-garde drumming in the vein of his mentors Elvin Jones and Billy Hart, the latter of whom he studied with at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music. Virtuoso musos appear alongside rap poets, including Danny Brown, Wiki, Lil B, and Shabazz Palaces. Top-flight jazz improvisation weaves in and out of orchestral string arrangements by Jherek Bischoff. The album’s diverse, all-star roster of collaborators includes several of his close friends, like vocalists Nick Hakim, Laura Mvula, Francis and the Lights, and jazz stars like Theo Croker and Vijay Iyer. 
 
ANIMALS pushes Kassa’s message further too, the title a loaded metaphor for the paradoxes of his life as an entertainer and as a black man in America. ANIMALS is the sound of an artist aware of the cost of embodying one’s natural self in the public eye, a deep reckoning with the two-sided truth that to perform one’s freedom for an audience can mean succumbing to life inside a cage.

MARTANIEL EXPERIMENT + Guest (BE)
 
La ferme de Lansrode was delighted to welcome Martin Daniel for an artistic residency in August. On this evening, he will be showing us the results of his work: an innovative fusion of jazz, hip-hop and electronic music.
Born in Brussels in 1983, Martin Daniel is a pianist renowned for his involvement in a wide range of musical genres, including hip-hop, jazz and electro. He is the founder of the group Glü, a musical ensemble that explores the intersections between these different styles. His work is characterised by an innovative and experimental approach, fusing traditional jazz elements with contemporary hip-hop and electro rhythms and textures. In addition to his career with Glü, Martin Daniel often collaborates with other artists and groups, contributing to various musical projects that reflect his eclecticism and musical creativity.

What to expect from this project:
 
Martin Daniel has recently launched an innovative solo project that showcases a rich palette of electronic sounds. Playing with a variety of synths and machines, he explores the many musical styles he has experimented with over the years to create a unique evolving set. This sonic journey begins with soothing tracks and gradually transforms into dynamic, driving rhythms, offering listeners an immersive experience. Imagine a musical journey that begins with soothing ambiences and gradually transforms into an explosion of frenzied beats. It's like embarking on a leisurely stroll that ends in a wild electro party. A real sonic adventure that will keep you moving from start to finish.
