<p><strong>EN /</strong> Together with <strong>GIOVANNI DI DOMENICO</strong> les ateliers claus presents <strong>&ldquo;Piano, Forte&rdquo;,</strong> a production that examines the various tonal qualities of two of the most used materials for instruments: wood and metal. Always bent &amp; shaped after the image of their instrument, they're responsible for a certain timbre, mood and identity. Taking these two materials as a starting point, Giovanni designed instruments that lend themselves to express the characteristics of wood and metal. Plates, bowls and tubes are the ingredients of a surprising world of sound. The typical sounds of wood and metal will interact with more traditional instruments as the violin and the piano, this way engaging in an interesting dialogue. Together with Manja Ristic, Pak Yan Lau and Mathieu Calleja, Giovanni Di Domenico will perform for about 2 hours, with les ateliers claus as a giant sound box. An exceptional soundscape made from two of the oldest and most versatile materials in the world.</p>

<p><strong>EN /</strong> Together with Antoine Boute, les ateliers claus hosts the <strong>BRUL</strong> nights. Exploring links and intersections between sonic poetry, noise, performances, voices, literature,... For the second BRUL night, Antoine Boute invited two bands and two poets. <strong>Cheresse</strong> (psychic poetry) <strong>Soumonces</strong> (exotic noise pop improv). <strong>Andy Fierens</strong> (flemish poet) and <strong>Th&eacute;ophile de Giraud</strong>, a french-speaking poet, fighting powers like monarchy and mass ideas by a positive and playful attitude.</p>

<p>&nbsp;<strong>EN /</strong> <strong>THE DECLINING WINTER</strong> is what happened since Hood decided to take an extended sabbatical after their brilliant Outside Closer LP. Temporarily freed from the pressures and expectations of the Hood environment, Richard Adams has breathed an audible sigh of relief into this new project. Ranging from epic claustrophobia to rustic folk-dub explorations, with spectral atmospheres anchored to pastoral roots, The Declining Winter deliver hypnotic melancholia via abstract hip hop, shoegaze, dub and post rock explorations. &bull;&bull;&bull; <strong>FIELDHEAD</strong> is Paul Elam (a resident of Leeds, UK). He produces ambient/electronic music that delights in tape hiss, geography, bleak landscapes and decaying analogue loops. Frozen laptop-generated soundscapes that produce a warmth beyond their contents via the twin violins veering off at different baroque angles in the most slow-burningly lovely way possible. He's here to present his lovely album on Home Assembly Music.</p>

<p><strong>NL /</strong> Koen Nutters en Christophe Meierhans vormen samen <strong>TAPE THAT</strong>, geluidskunstenaars in de ruimste betekenis van het woord. Geluid is voor hen steeds een vertrekpunt, een manier om naar de dingen te kijken. Zo is Tape That bijzonder ge&iuml;nteresseerd in restgeluid en catalogiseren ze dit met een fanatieke precisie. Voor les ateliers claus past Tape That hun pseudo-wetenschappelijke dissectie toe op een klassieke rockband&nbsp;&nbsp; &bull;&bull;&bull;&nbsp;&nbsp; <strong>FREDERIC ALSTADT</strong> is gespecialiseerd in subfrequenties en diepe bassen. Hij gaat hij les ateliers claus voorzien van een  innemende fysieke geluidservaring waar de grens tussen luisteren en voelen in twijfel wordt getrokken ... <em><a href="http://www.lesateliersclaus.com/events/2010/2/13/tape-that-frederic-alstadt.html">(meer)</a></em></p>

Le son n&rsquo;est toujours pour eux qu&rsquo;un point de d&eacute;part, une fa&ccedil;on de voir les choses. Ce collectif est ainsi particuli&egrave;rement int&eacute;ress&eacute; par le bruit r&eacute;siduel et le catalogage maniaque et pr&eacute;cis des sons.

Ses apparitions musicales sont le plus souvent des performances de platiniste, lors desquelles il joue de platines vinyles sans disques et d&rsquo;un ampli basse, transformant en instruments ces outils d&rsquo;&eacute;coute.

<p><strong>NL / </strong>Na jaren stilte kruipt <strong>CASPAR BROTZMANN MASSAKER</strong> eindelijk nog eens het podium op, &eacute;n dat in de originele line-up. Wie &eacute;&eacute;n van hun performances midden jaren '90 heeft meegemaakt, is een onvoorwaardelijke fan. Voor velen is Caspar Br&ouml;tzmann (zoon van Peter, de bekende saxofonist) de enige waardige opvolger van Jimi Hendrix. Bands als Sonic Youth lopen hoog op met de furieuze feedbackstormen die Caspar uit zijn huilende Fender Stratocaster haalt. Br&ouml;tzmann is van de Einst&uuml;rzende Neubauten-generatie maar vond aansluiting bij "Die Neuen Wilde", een stroming van 'brutale' neo-expressionisten. Het was kiezen tussen de borstel en de gitaar, maar Br&ouml;tzmann verkoos schilder van abstracte geluiden te zijn. Demonische teksten en een orkaan van gitaargeluid zuigen je mee in een irrationele ervaring. Niet te missen. &nbsp;&nbsp;&bull;&bull;&bull;&nbsp;&nbsp; De avond wordt geopend door een ander legendarisch figuur. <strong>Gh&eacute;dalia Tazart&egrave;s</strong> is een avantgarde kunstenaar die aan de slag ging volgens de beste traditie van de musique concr&egrave;te (zie Pierre Schaeffer, Pierre Henry). Een eigen vormtaal tussen etnisch ge&iuml;nspireerde zang en verbeeldingrijke elektronica, van emotionele psalmen tot sjamaanse hymne.</p>
<p><strong>FR / </strong>Avec son trio <strong>MASSAKER, CASPAR BR&Ouml;TZMANN</strong> a sorti 5 albums de la fin des ann&eacute;es 80 au d&eacute;but d'ann&eacute;es 90 et jou&eacute; de nombreuses fois en Belgique. Quiconque a assist&eacute; &agrave; ces concerts est forc&eacute;ment devenu fan iconditionnel de cet unique successeur de Jimi Hendrix, le roi de la Stratocastor qui fait du son de sa guitare un ouragan d&eacute;vastateur. Si on devait associer Br&ouml;tzmann &agrave; d&rsquo;autres artistes, il est tentant de la comparer aux "Die Neue Wilde" ou "N&eacute;o-Primitifs" tels Baselitz et Penck plut&ocirc;t qu'&agrave; d&rsquo;autres musiciens de son temps. Entre le pinceau et la guitare, il a d&eacute;cid&eacute; d'&ecirc;tre un peintre de sons abstraits. Avec des morceaux comme "The tribe" et "Hunter song", il entraine le public dans l'atmosph&egrave;re de rituels sombres et chamaniques&nbsp;&nbsp; &bull;&bull;&bull;&nbsp;&nbsp; <strong>Gh&eacute;dalia Tazartes</strong> (&deg;1947, Paris) navigue entre des racines profond&eacute;ment juives et une culture de l&rsquo;avant-garde europ&eacute;enne. Disciple turbulent de Pierre Schaeffer ou Pierre Henry, il a commenc&eacute; par le collage de bandes sonores, des morceaux instrumentaux abstraits, pour s&rsquo;orienter vers un travail profond&eacute;ment vocal, inspir&eacute; de traditions ethniques. Sa voix au genre ind&eacute;finissable navigue entre envoutement et terreur. Une performance entre po&eacute;sie sonore et chant hassidique trop rare par chez nous. N&rsquo;h&eacute;sitez pas &agrave; vous procurer aussi ses magnifiques albums sur le label Demosaurus !</p>
<p><strong>EN / </strong>Together with his trio <strong>MASSAKER</strong>, <strong>CASPAR BR&Ouml;TZMANN</strong> released 5 albums during the late 80's &amp; early 90's and they played about as much shows in Belgium. Anyone who experienced one of these amazing concerts became an unconditional fan. He's been regarded as the one and only worthy successor of Jimi Hendrix, the king of the Fender Stratocastor. The way he gets a devastating hurricane of noise out of his guitar is just incredible. Br&ouml;tzmann is easier to associate with &ldquo;Die Neue Wilde&rdquo; or &ldquo;The Neo-Primitives&rdquo; like Baselitz and Penck rather than any other musician of his time. His choice was much more  between the brush and the guitar rather than a question of style. Instead he decided to be a painter of abstract sounds. With song titles like &ldquo;The Tribe&rdquo; and &ldquo;Hunter Song&rdquo; we are thrown in atmosphere of dark rituals and shamanism&nbsp;&nbsp; &bull;&bull;&bull;&nbsp;&nbsp; <strong> Gh&eacute;dalia Tazartes</strong> (&deg;1947, Paris) is rooted in a Turkish-Sephardic Jewish culture, but could also be situated in the French Avant-garde. According to the tradition of Musique concr&egrave;te, like Pierre Schaeffer and Pierre Henry, he started to work with Revox tapes, cutting and pasting bits of recorded sound to order in a musical composition. With only a handful of hard-to-get recordings and few public appearances, he is an autodidact who developed his own language between ethnic-inspired vocals and imaginative electronics; evocative psalms and shamanic hymns.</p>
