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!

Leave A Comment »Romano Nervoso are told to be the best Spaghetti belgian rock band. Well, if spaghetti it is, why not.
I do enjoy a bit a bolognese in my rock n’ roll anyway!

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 !!!

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?!!

Leave A Comment »
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.

Drums Are For Parades @Dour Festival (Season 6, Session 3)
Leave A Comment »
It was saturday night, and it was raining so much that we were about to stop our shootings for the day, when DAFP came under the yurt. It was risky for sure, but we had been so impressed by the energy of this belgian power trio on stage!
So, ok, let’s have a wet session!
…and then, something surnatural happened: the sound was so loud and the riffs were so fat that even the sky got scarred and….. the rain suddenly stopped.
So let’s now live this experience at home by listening their LP “Master” (2011) or watching one of the loudest Attic Addict session of Dour 2011!

Hoquets @ Dour Festival (Season 6, Session 2)
Leave A Comment »The three Hoquets players are certainely very bad on ice-skates, but they really do the job on handmade wooden instruments !
Kicking on boxes and saucepans, sliding on a one string instrument that we’ll call….hum….well…”stuff”!
They will tell you about a dwarf called Napoleon ( 1815 ), a cooking recipe ( Couque de Dinant ), and a short description of Charleroi ( Cha Cha Charleroi ). They will make you smile and dance like a « monkey-python » !
Their first album, called « Belgotronics », refers to « Congotronics », a side project of Konono n°1 with Hoquets, Deerhoof, and many more, released by the famous label Crammed Discs.
Let their video show you how joyful and energetic was their performance in the Yurt at Dour Festival !

Primitiv @ Dour Festival 2011 (Season 6, Session 1)
1 Comment »
This summer, while you were laying on a tropical beach, under the sun (or not), our Attic Addict team went for the second time setting his tents in the famous Dour festival!
Here is Primitiv, one of the session we shot during these amazing four days we spent there. This guy was just incredible, when you think about beatboxing, you couldn’t think that it goes that far and in that style! Maybe that’s why he’s the 2009 world online vice champion…. ; ) You should check more on his Myspace!
This first episode of season 6 (already??!!) is also a good moment to explain the directions we took. Before starting a new season, there’s always this time you’re wondering which new things you can bring compared to the previous season… At some point, we tried to catch up with what was happening all around the web and standards new platforms were trying to impose us, this HD apologia as a key point for any production. Today, we think we were wrong, and that Attic Addict is not meant to be shot with Canon 5D MarkII like everybody does. That’s why we came back to our good old recipes, using mostly small shity cameras, and editing all the video live. It might be sometime a bit rough, sometime a bit too much intense, but it’s what we like because it’s alive and it’s matching with the music experience. So we hope you will enjoy this new season!
Thanks for following us! and if you like these videos, feel free to share them!
