Kunz @ Dour Festival 2011

Leave A Comment »

During the last night of the festival (when you don’t have all your mind anymore), while we were about to pack everything cause we thought we wouldn’t record any band anymore, a head popped up in the yourt.
He had a quick overlook on the equipement we had and then we started to stare at each other…
We knew you met before….
It was Louis Jucker, who we recorded in our early years with his band Julie Rocks You

As soon as we started to remember these good old memories, we went to pick up his drummer Luc Hess, and some friends as well to feature as guest :

Martin Driscoll playing the bass and Jona Nido from The Ocean playing the guitar.

We couldn’t imagine a better session to finish these four days of total crazyness!

Uncommonmenfrommars@ Dour Festival 2011

Leave A Comment »

Uncommonmenfrommars represent a lot of things for me. It makes me think about all this time I spent on my skateboard, trying to make some cool tricks … I was 15.
I was so happy to record this band !
But the shooting was not easy. They play too loud ! Our Hard drive was suffering … and the video recording should stop every 2 minutes.
Finally, after 4 missed shots, our video engineer put a pillow under the video laptop. And Uncommonmenfrommars played as loud as they’re used to.

Mahala Raï Banda @ Dour Festival 2011

Leave A Comment »

When we proposed Mahala Raï Banda if they wanted to play in the yurt,
we had one problem : none of them spoke English, Flemish or French !
We finally found their manager.
After two or three words in romanian, the 11 musicians of the orchestra
walked joyfully to the yurt.

It was kind of a technical challenge for our sound guys,
but the band was so easy going that everything went fine !

Mahala Raï Banda are represented by Crammed Discs
Check their myspace and enjoy !!!

Ghostpoet @ Dour Festival 2011

Leave A Comment »

Ghost Poet is a really good “souvenir” of Dour 2011 !
He was a discovery for the european public and his show was amazing.
He was a discovery for us, and he came in the yurt with his faith, his confidence, and a lot of stuff we had to plug to make this session happen !

Check out his Website !

Louis Aguilar

Leave A Comment »

Nous avions déjà enregistré une session avec Louis Aguilar. Il avait 18 ans et déjà pas mal d’idées sur l’écriture de chansons. C’était il y a 10, non 5, euh non, il y a 3 ans.
Il était accompagné d’Amélie ( Saison 2 ), et sa musique était habitée.

3 ans après, Louis Aguilar est toujours habité, mais plus que ça, son nouvel album est très bien habillé d’une batterie, d’une basse, et de compositions belles à faire s’émouvoir ta grand-mère qui a jamais pété un mot d’anglais !

Louis Aguilar already played in the Attic 3 years before ( with Amelie ). He was young and promising…
Today, we’re glad to hear him again, with a drummer and a bassist, releasing a new album !

Silje Nes

2 musician and 2 technician were packed in a sunny little living room with plants and spaghetti cables to give Attic Addict Paris session vol.2.
Time moved slowly yet soon enough room floated up with her brilliant sounds coming from pedals and pedals, guitar and her voice. With her drummer, who joined for the last song, her session took us to little organic space journey with lovely songs. Yes it is hard to describe, it’s magic. Enjoy

The Bewitched Hands @ Dour Festival 2011 (S06, E10)

Leave A Comment »

We’ve been following our friends from The Bewitched Hands for a very long time now. Their song “Birds & Drums” was reverberating in the kitchen every sunday morning, while drinking our coffee, at the time we recorded their first Attic Addict session.

Today, we’re really happy and proud that their entering the small club of bands that have been “Attic Addicted” twice, and we’re just looking forward the third time!

The Bewitched Hands will be playing at La Cigale, Paris, on October 21st. Get your tickets to see them!

Jamaica @ Dour Festival (Season 6, Session 8)

Leave A Comment »


Jamaica took the risk of offering something different into our Yurt, far from the heavily xavier de rosnay produced album of theirs, they instead performed something more “unplugged like” of their song “Short & Entertaining”.
Well, short & entertaining it is, isn’t it?!!

Tahiti 80 @ Dour Festival 2011 (Season 6, Session 7)

we will remember Misteur Valaire not only for their music, but also because of the great atmosphere they managed to put in the yurt: they were really happy to record this session, and were very nice and positive people.

this feeling can be relived thanks to this fifth session of our Season at Dour 2011!

the two songs that Misteur Valaire play here are Ave Mucho & Mama Donte.

Les Hurlements d’Léo, the much famous french band, stopped by our Yurt to record this session. This committed punk rock band definitely shows us their skills as musicians, performers and songwriters.
Don’t forget to stop by their facebook page or listen to their latest album “Bordel de luxe”, from which they perform the songs “La Haine”, “Ticket pour le Chaos” and “El Fuego” in this very session.
