My humble tribute to @kneebody ❤️ hope you enjoy it! (Warts and all hehe)

This was really fun to attempt, needless to say it was a huge challenge, but fun to do! I think I’ll be sticking to playing drums or bass separately though 😹

The world is always going to be a better place having lots of different and interesting and unique and beautiful and loving people.. May we grow to be ever more curious and kind, and keep asking questions instead of building walls.

Happy TDOV 🏳️‍⚧️❤️

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!
🎷🥁🎺💃

I cordially invite you to come watch @hossproject play at @jazzincrooswijk this Sunday 27th. We will play instrumental music in various different time signatures and it will be a hoot. Free entry too.

Felt like some double bass drum vibes, but I only packed my single pedal!

Was fun at @tuschinskifestival with @hossproject ❤️

Ħoss Project is een jazzfusionkwartet gevestigd in Rotterdam dat de grenzen opzoekt tussen improvisatie, elektronische texturen en moderne grooves. Met jazz in de achtergrond en een blik op de toekomst laat hun sound zich inspireren door artiesten als Kneebody en Tigran Hamasyan, evenals door de elektronische experimenten van Mehliana en Nasty Factorz.
Het kwartet bestaat uit vier jazzgeschoolde muzikanten met uiteenlopende nationaliteiten en genders, en brengt daarmee een frisse en dynamische stem binnen de hedendaagse jazzscene. Hun muziek is ritmisch gedreven, emotioneel gelaagd en sonisch avontuurlijk, met een mix van verfijnde improvisatie en rijke, vooruitstrevende klankkleuren.
Met een nieuw album in het vooruitzicht, met een albumrelease gepland begin 2027, staat Ħoss Project klaar om hun elektrische energie live naar het podium te brengen.

When I was 13 years old and social media was still in its early stages (it was fun, and not a rotting cesspit of algorithmic slop and targeted advertisement) I made an account on hi5. Yes, hi5.

I’ve come to realise that a couple decades (and social media platforms) later I haven’t gone without social media this entire time. Many of us rely on it to promote our art and upcoming shows, but before the gig season kicks in again, I’d like to take a break.

If you need me, call me or contact me on WhatsApp. If you don’t have my number, ask someone who does. Wish this millennial luck! ❤️ I’ve got books to catch up on!

ĦOSSFAM what is there to say at a time like this?!
4 days before our @voordekunst crowdfunding campaign ends, we are literally at 112%!
We cannot thank you enough for the support and are so incredibly excited to give you this album and documentary.
Special thanks also to @artscouncilmalta for the support, as well as Gemeente Rotterdam and Cultuurfonds for the match funding ❤️

But it’s not over yet! You can still preorder yourself a double vinyl or CD, otherwise they’ll be available next year on the album release tour. We love you! See you soon x
