29 Oktober 2010 – Plattegrond Records in collaboration with Goleb & Kunstwest!!
Plattegrond Records is a collective of electronic musicians based around Amsterdam.
The main focus and output is to organize events featuring live electronic dance music
in the experimental vain. There is a core crew surrounding the label, with the artist
who calls himself Hakki Takki, being at the front. At Plattegrond's events the lineup
usually consists of a number of musicians of the Plattegrond crew, either in solo or new
improvised duo/trio/quatro setups, and sometimes some external musicians from inside or
outside of the country.
For the 29th we have been talking with 'Logosamphia', a dutch musician from Dordrecht,
who is on tour during this time together with the Berlin based musician 'Irrlicht'. Both artists
come from the 8 bit / micro music scene. Irrlicht has even been the one responsible for
setting up the 'berlin-hq' network, a network of micro-musicians which is manifested all
over the world, like 'paris-hq', 'new-york-hq', etcetcetc...
Added to the lineup as well is Syndrome WPW, an electronic solo act by a guy called
Serge from Swiss. He plays energetic, danceable and uptempo electro/8-bit songs which
he accompanies by singing and screaming, and also playing melodies and solo's with the
synthesizer slung around his neck.
Surrounding these three touring musicians the Plattegrond crew of this night, consisting
of Hakki Takki, Peter Quistgard and Gameboys-a-go-go, will perform their music in
experimental combinations of the three. And, as a last minute addition, the French visual
artist called 'Realmyop' will be accompanying the threesome with a video pallet of digital
thunder coming from his circuit bent NES, SEGA or whatnot?!! As long as it's a video
game console!
Syndrome WPW (SW)
Energetic, electronic and danceable songs from a guy with a synthesizer hanging around
his neck! He seems to be touring forever, and therefore has been playing gigs all around
the world.

Logosamphia (NL)
A guy from Dordrecht who's caps, jeans and t-shirts look as if he could have been coming
from a video game, ...or is he?!? At least the music could be, although it would have to be
a video game with a fast, lo-res, noisy soundtrack of beats and improvised toy music. He carries around a laptop and then a whole bunch of DIY circuits

RealMyOp (FR)
Like a researcher in fundamental science I like to experiment new ways to define
interactive art. Through my research I discovered new forms of expressions related to new
media, video games and digital arts. Following this research, I'm designing new playful
ways of expressions.
