Beautiful ethereal electronic/acoustic soundscape improvisations. Recorded by Ted Maseurs on 23 april 2007. Including 2 bonus tracks from 23 july 2006. Total minutes: 71:54 !
"Tonelist" is Bram’s third album, full of beautiful, ethereal, live improvised guitar/laptop compositions with keyboard and drums added.
Believe it or not, but it's all improvised, meaning: playing without talking or writing before, just thoughts, dense emotions, an ode, being inspired by nice Dutch meadows for example.
Bram uses his personal set of connecting his (jazz)guitar to a guitarsynthesizer and laptop, creating many melodic, wide, dreamy sounds. In addition, Jasper Lekkerkerk's keyboard and effect skills make a nice contrast, and the drummer Onno Govaert makes sure the whole thing sparkles as sunlight on a misty lake.
