And naturally when being in quarantine you play with yourself sometimes. So after the collaborations it was time for a brandnew Butsenzeller solo track with video ! Strange Dayz is dedicated to healthcare workers and missed loved ones and became a postpunk thingy. Also newly added to the Covid Collabs is a track in collaboration with Belpop legend Kloot Perwez....check it out and preferable purchase it !

Hersencellen naturally couldn't be missed on the Covid Collabs. Gert Vanlerberghe provided the vocals to an unfinished track from a safe distance using his telephone. Gert-Jan already dropped his guitarparts a while ago, Butsenzeller did the rest and made the video...hope you enjoy !

Yep, the longer this little stupid virus keeps us in hour houses, the more we will create from our home and hoping for some support with the purchase of those creations, to compensate the loss of income due to all the cancelled gigs. After the solo lockdownsessions we put on facebook, we decided to make a sort of virtual Gitaneller Nights and collaborate and improvise trough internet filesharing.
The first results are already bundled on Butsenzeller's Bandcamp page, as Gitaneller: The Covid Collabs and even more are in the making as we speak. Also some of them even got a video version. All released on the brandnew Belgium Music Addicts YouTube channel, all about Belgian music and helping out each other instead of dabble on our own digital islands. SO PLEASE SUBSCRIBE !! And enjoy this brandnew jazz collaboration between Butsenzeller, Gert Wyninckx and Bert Bernaerts !

Lockdown fun: What to do as an artist/performer when all your planned gigs have been cancelled ? Stay home and create !
That's why we've released some lockdown videoclips of new and older tracks. At first there is Hot Wine Trio who had a Gitaneller gig scheduled on 19 march...so we made a video for music recorded live and without rehearsals in the pre lockdown situation.
Secondly we've made a video for the Staatseinde remix Butsenzeller made a while ago

Legendary English punkband Crass made the seperate multitracks of their legendary album 'The feeding of the 5000' available for downloads and remixes. Since Crass was a real mind opener for Butsenzeller, he considered this an opportunity after 35 years.
So he started off with remixing the song 'So What' in the vein of the original track and added some extra's.
But at this time also Scoundrels (Dutch punkband Boots played in from about 1985 till 1990) are more or less rehearsing, recording and fooling around again...and there was this improvised instrumental track ....recorded by Scoundrels pal Patrick Delabie which Butsenzeller edited and mash up with the Crass vocals of their song 'Punk Is Dead'.
Then the idea came of using the Butsenzeller remix of his own track 'Voteshutupworkconsume' and blend that with Crass their classic 'Do They Owe Us A Living'. Which was mentioned already on the Crasswords facebook page with this great comment: "Wow, over forty years and it's come to this. Butsenzeller RFX gives new, radical clout to 'Owe Us A Living' and yes, of course they fucking can; nice one." (Crass)
Since a few days those remixes are available for streaming at the Crass Soundcloudpage....so the circle equally to the Crass logo is more or less round. Proud to be a part of this reworks of punk history !

Today Luminous Dash launches the brandnew Stovepipe single/video Born To Jive !
December 24, 2019
End of the year, so time to thank everyone that supported my musical escapades the past year, everyone that booked me or one of my projects, promoted it or gave it some attention...you know who you are ! Hersencellen made it to some lists apparently , like Luminous Dash top 10 Belgian singles and even as a live act in Kinky Star's top 10, many thanks ! At my end here's my end of the year present, a dj mix filled with dark beauty as antidote for all the jingle bells and white christmasses, hope you enjoy.

Stovepipe, the groovy soulful rock'n'roll ghoulies consisting out of Roeland Verhaegen on vocals, Jan peeters on guitar, René Hermkens on Hammond and Butsenzeller on drums and backing vocals, recorded 4 tracks for an upcoming 7 inch release, soon to be released by Jezus Factory Records; two own songs 'Never Surrender' and Born To Jive' and two covers. The covers will be available as extra download with the vinyl + a Butsenzeller remix of Born To Jive.
Unorthodox as we are, we release the remix first exclusively on Soundcloud ! 'Born To Love', with the Afro style approach it differs completely from the original track, but surely suits the summer vibe, enjoy !!

Because of the fact that Antwerp is nowadays mostly known for it's incompetent, fucked up little shit of a mayor instead of our lively, versatile and quality music scene, like it used to be. Butsenzeller decided on a blue rainy Monday, to start spinning some Antwerp tunes at home and record it. 4 hours and 15 minutes later he had a result that was called Mixed Up Antwerp and posted it on Mixcloud. To his own surprise it became the best listened set he ever posted.
Because of the fact that a lot of great more recent stuff was still left out, he decided to make another episode Mixed Up Antwerp Too, another 2 hours and a half great Antwerp stuff, without walking the beaten obvious path. Listen, probably discover a whole lot, spread the word and share. But above all ENJOY !!

Like we told in our previous news update, there was a serious possibility we would create a clip for the last and lonely track of the Butsenzeller / Hersencellen split cassette that was left alone without a video. So we took a camera to our show in 't Hof in Middelburg (NL) and fired away before, during and after the gig. The result is a brandnew video for "Broos" and the final one of the 7 tracks featured on the release. So all the video's can be found in one handy playlist, in the same running order. So shut off your TV and tune in for a Youtube show with Hersencellen and Butsenzeller ......HERE !!
