Ħoss Project bracht op 27 september een daverend concert naar Crooswijk. Het quartet wist ritme en kleurrijke melodieën naadloos te combineren. Met dromerige saxtonen en scherpe synths werden er verhalen verteld. De inspiratie achter nummers zoals ‘Wait’ en ‘Open Window’ werden enthousiast toegelicht door drummer Pete Galea. Zo werd het publiek meegenomen in het creatieve proces van de band. Ook werd het aan het werk gezet door een klank herhaaldelijk mee te zingen bij een uptempo nummer; best lastig!
Houd deze band het komende jaar in de gaten voor de release van hun nieuwe album!
Veel dank aan de muzikanten, gasten, sponsoren en vrijwilligers!

On September 27, Ħoss Project brought an electrifying concert to Crooswijk. The quartet seamlessly blended rhythm with colourful melodies.
With dreamy saxophone tones and sharp synths, they told stories through their music. Drummer Pete Galea enthusiastically shared the inspiration behind tracks such as ‘Wait’ and ‘Open Window’, giving the audience an insight into the band’s creative process. The audience even got involved by singing along to a repeated note during an uptempo song.
This turned out to be quite challenging...
Stay tuned the coming year as the band will release their new album!
Many thanks to the musicians, guests, sponsors, and volunteers!
🎷🥁🎺💃

A little while ago we entered @faroutsoundstudio with sound-wizard Niek Driesschen who helped us find a voice with which to sing our stories, and captured our sound so magically. 😊🎚️

It was also in this enchanted place that @merryflop set her camera to work, producing these beautiful images. 📷🖼️

Fast-forward to some months later and here we are - our album is ready to see its first light on CD! ✨

“On metaphors” is the name we chose for this curious collection of 8 songs which recount the stories of extraordinary encounters with supernatural beings, temperamental aviary organisms and time-travelling seeds. ⏳🪻

We would like to invite you to step into this mystical world with us on Sunday 11th October at one of the most interdimensional places of all: @worm.rotterdam

Our favourite metaphysical maestro of the sonic seas Cengiz Arslanpay will also be there! 🎚️🪈

Our young friend Frank Schonewille drew a breathtaking scene which @_tisa_world_ 's sharp eye helped turn into an artwork that complements our album perfectly!
