The Cosmic Dead (UK) + Sunset Images (MX)

Description

Collectif Mental proudly presents:


THE COSMIC DEAD (psychedelic rock/krautrock - UK) - Heavy Psych Sounds - First time in Belgium since 2019!

The Cosmic Dead are an amorphous blob of space rock energy hailing from Glasgow, Scotland. Their exploratory compositions often reach levels of sonic destruction through reflective repetition and visceral harmony.
The band has taken many forms since forming in 2010 and has been declared "the loudest psychedelic rock band on the planet" by legendary compere Kozmik Ken. At the base of the current sonic obliteration team is a rhythm section of Tommy Duffin and Omar Aborida, a thunderous and cohesive unit which is then further propelled into the outer realms by Luigi Pasquini providing frantic italo synthesized electronics along with Calum Calderwood's mind bending, sky-shattering fiddle acrobatics.
Their long awaited ninth full length, Infinite Peaks, was released in April 2024.

SUNSET IMAGES (post-rock/shoegaze/psychedelic - MX) - First show in Brussels!

Multi-instrumentalist Samuel Osorio's fervent guitar and bass performance and tortured vocals have established a core around which chaos is order and volume is paramount, and the final results stand in sharp contrast to the laid back expectations conjured by the band's moniker. The foundational influences here are krautrock, punk and shoegaze but Sunset Images takes the ideas embodied by those genres and drives them through a wall into a realm that entertains only their noisiest inclinations.

Khaled Alhafez: Voice Tarek Alsayed : Oud Muwashah is an Arabic poetry and singing style started about a thousand years ago in the Middle East and Andalusia. The word Muwashah means decorate, improve and embellish. The city of Aleppo was always known for its great interest in Muwashah, passing it on through the generations, and composing on it until the middle of the twentieth century. Khaled and Tarek (both from Aleppo) have been playing Muwashah together for more than 17 years. They will present old Muwashah style songs from Aleppo, arranged by them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5T66Ctq4hI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvM63EegjSE&list=PLCPOYuEvw-kuX5tSthYyr8Np8NcCDsctO
Tribute to Fats Waller & Louis Armstrong Bruce Ellison (vocal)Patrick Louis (guitar-vocal)Druss Lecomte (piano-vocal)Guillaume Durieux (double bass-vocal) Bruce Ellison began as a mime and voice-over artist for American television, as well as in musicals. In 1981, he arrived in Paris and joined the Marceau mime school. Founder with Michel Carcan of the Théâtre de la Mandragore, he also lends his voice to a number of advertising campaigns as well as children’s programs. He is also the lead singer of the rock band PPZ30. He is the director and actor of the strange Mister Knight. With The Jellodies he proves to be an excellent singer in the color and antics of Thomas Fats Waller and the sung Jazz of Louis Armstrong The Jellodies is a group inspired by the famous trio: Art Tatum-Charlie Christian-Ray Brown:Pat Louis (guitar and vocals) who moves from blues to jazz repertoire with a playing marked in particular by Freddie Green, Tiny Grimes and the great Charlie Christian; Druss Lecomte (piano and vocals) whose colorful playing will remind you of the swing of Count Basie and Nat King Cole, the stride of Thomas “Fats” Waller, James P. Johnson, the humor of Erroll Garner, the playing of ‘Art Tatum. He opened for Fats Domino and Ray Charles. He has a long career as a jazz, blues, ragtime, stride piano, swing and boogie woogie pianist. At his first concert, at the Os à Moelle in Brussels, he was only…17 years old; Guillaume Durieux (double bass and vocals), the youngest of the trio, already has superb technique and very high level slap. The Jellodies is the swing and jive of the Nat King Cole Trio, Count Basie’s rhythm section but also Willie Dixon’s Big Three Trio, all this for our greatest happiness, “groove” wickedly!.. . The alchemy that results from the meeting between Bruce Ellison and The Jellodies is absolutely magical. VIDEO LINK : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7doJ7FEQ9k TICKET: 18€ Members – No Members 20€
Harry Kanters (piano)Peter Verhas (cl,sax)Michael Varekamp  (trumpet,vocal)Harry Emmery (bass)Erik Kooger (drums) The Louis Armstrong Celebration Band brings a program and show in the spirit of Louis Armstrong’s classic All Stars. This Dutch/Belgian band consists of nothing but celebrities who have built up a solid name in the European jazz world. They play without copying the original, but do focus on the repertoire that Uncle Satchmo played in the 1940s and 1950s. This unique ‘All Star’ company takes the audience on a journey through time when jazz invariably had a high entertainment value. The music is alive and swinging and makes the character of Louis almost tangible. The humorous presentation and singing make attending a concert a real party! TICKET: 20€ Members – No Members 22€
********** Français ********** MARO est une artiste portugaise multi-instrumentiste, autrice-compositrice et productrice originaire de Lisbonne. Sa carrière débute officiellement en 2018, après avoir sorti cinq albums et un EP. Un an plus tard, elle rejoint Jacob Collier sur sa tournée en tant que membre du groupe. Au cours de ces années, MARO a fait la première partie de nombreux artistes, tel·les que Jessie J, Charlotte Cardin et ¿Téo?, en plus de d’avoir donné des concerts à guichets fermés au Portugal, en Espagne, au Brésil, au Mexique et aux États-Unis. Plus récemment, MARO a représenté son pays à l'Eurovision (2022) avec « saudade, saudade », garantissant une place dans le top 10. Son dernier album intitulé « hortelã », sorti en avril 2023, donne vie à une version intime et dépouillée de ses chansons les plus récentes, affirmant une présence acoustique folk. Principalement en portugais, cet album a été enregistré en trio, avec les guitaristes catalans Darío Barroso et Pau Figueres. ********** Nederlands ********** MARO is een Portugese multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter en producer uit Lissabon. Haar carrière begon officieel in 2018, toen ze vijf albums en een EP uitbracht. Een jaar later ging ze met Jacob Collier op tournee als lid van de band. In de loop der jaren heeft MARO artiesten als Jessie J, Charlotte Cardin en ¿Téo? ondersteund en concerten uitverkocht in Portugal, Spanje, Brazilië, Mexico en de Verenigde Staten. Meer recentelijk vertegenwoordigde MARO zijn land op Eurovision (2022) met "saudade, saudade", waarmee hij een plaats in de top 10 veroverde. Zijn laatste album "hortelã", uitgebracht in april 2023, brengt een intieme, uitgeklede versie van zijn meest recente songs tot leven, met een akoestische folkaanwezigheid. Het album is voornamelijk in het Portugees en werd opgenomen als trio met de Catalaanse gitaristen Darío Barroso en Pau Figueres.
********** Français ********** Flora Ocean Tiger Bloom, le dernier album en date des Meatbodies, est leur œuvre la plus variée et la plus aboutie à ce jour. Il s'agit d'une épopée rock mélodique et pleine de rebondissements dans laquelle le leader et guitariste Chad Ubovich affronte les épreuves de la sobriété, de la rédemption et de la réinvention tout en réapprenant littéralement à marcher et à jouer. Flora Ocean Tiger Bloom aborde les thèmes de l'amour et de la perte, de l'évasion, du défaitisme, de l'hédonisme, et bien plus encore. L'album rappelle le Blue Cheer-meets-Iggy Pop-with-psychedelia qui a imprégné les albums précédents, mais y ajoute de nouveaux éléments de shoegaze, de classic alternative, de Britpop, de drone, et des soupçons de pistes country sans jamais sonner forcé ou étrange. À la fois ode au punk LA des années 80 et à l'essor de la musique indie/alternative au Royaume-Uni, Flora Ocean Tiger Bloom joue comme une radio émettant dans le vide, avec une playlist cosmique composée des premiers Pink Floyd, Ramones, Roky Erickson, Kinks et Spacemen 3. L'ensemble constitue un effort qui tire sa force de sa diversité, laquelle n'est que secondaire par rapport à l'impeccabilité de l'écriture. ********** Nederlands ********** Flora Ocean Tiger Bloom, het nieuwste album van de Meatbodies, is hun meest gevarieerde en geslaagde werk tot nu toe. Het is een melodieus rockepos vol wendingen, waarin frontman en gitarist Chad Ubovich wordt geconfronteerd met de beproevingen van soberheid, verlossing en heruitvinding terwijl hij letterlijk opnieuw leert lopen en spelen. Flora Ocean Tiger Bloom behandelt thema's als liefde en verlies, escapisme, defaitisme, hedonisme en nog veel meer. Het album herinnert aan de Blue Cheer-meets-Iggy Pop-met-psychedelica die de vorige albums kenmerkten, maar voegt nieuwe elementen toe van shoegaze, classic alternative, Britpop, drone en vleugjes country zonder ooit geforceerd of vreemd te klinken. Flora Ocean Tiger Bloom is tegelijkertijd een ode aan de LA punk uit de jaren 80 en de opkomst van indie/alternatieve muziek in het Verenigd Koninkrijk en speelt als een radio die uitzendt in de leegte, met een kosmische afspeellijst van vroege Pink Floyd, Ramones, Roky Erickson, Kinks en Spacemen 3. Het geheel is een werk dat zijn kracht haalt uit de diversiteit, die slechts secundair is aan de onberispelijkheid van het schrijven.
********** Français ********** SEAROWS est le projet indie-folk d'Alec Duckart (il/elle), un·e auteur·ice-compositeur·ice-interprète et guitariste originaire du Kentucky et élevé·e dans l'Oregon. Son premier album, « Guard Dog », sorti le 30 septembre 2022, a été écrit, enregistré et produit par Alec seul·e, sur un vieil ordinateur portable, avec GarageBand, entre son 21e et son 22e anniversaire. Sur les 13 titres de « Guard Dog », qui résument sa vision émouvante du folk et de l’indie, ainsi que sur le single « House Song » (2023), son écriture est intensément vulnérable, pleine de ruminations plaintives sur la façon de se connaître et de se tenir dans des relations compliquées. Parce que les paroles de Searows trouvent une résonance particulière auprès de nombreuses personnes, sa musique s'est répandue comme une traînée de poudre sur TikTok et a rapidement suscité les éloges d'artistes tels qu'Ethel Cain, Gracie Abrams et bien d’autres. ********** Nederlands ********** SEAROWS is het indie-folk project van Alec Duckart (hij/zij), een singer-songwriter en gitarist oorspronkelijk uit Kentucky en opgegroeid in Oregon. Zijn debuutalbum 'Guard Dog', uitgebracht op 30 september 2022, is geschreven, opgenomen en geproduceerd door Alec alleen, op een oude laptop, met GarageBand, tussen zijn 21e en 22e verjaardag. Op het 13 tracks tellende 'Guard Dog', dat zijn ontroerende kijk op folk en indie samenvat, evenals op de single 'House Song' (2023), is zijn songschrijven intens kwetsbaar, vol klaaglijke overpeinzingen over jezelf kennen en jezelf staande houden in gecompliceerde relaties. Omdat de teksten van Searows resoneren met zoveel mensen, heeft haar muziek zich als een lopend vuurtje verspreid op TikTok en al snel lof geoogst van artiesten als Ethel Cain, Gracie Abrams en vele anderen.
