After over 8 years of putting on concerts with my Ruisburo series at De Ruimte this is coming to an end.
There are 2 more events coming, of which the first on is RUISBURO with Karen Willems, Romke Kleefstra & Jan Kleefstra, and Marieke van de Ven on October 18th.
After this there will be one more final Ruisburo festival in collaboration with Dodó Kis her Nebular Sessions.
In July 2016 I got connected with De Ruimte after playing there myself for the first time (the picture to this post is from that first time). I was really charmed by the cosy and at the same time crazy venue.
After I put on many memorizable shows, some with veterans of the electronic music scene, like O Yuki Conjugate, Philip Jeck, and Asmus Tiechens, but also young (at that time emerging) musicians like Sarah Davachi and Yann Novak.
But also just other really cool things that maybe never got any fame, but were always worth the attention.
It has been great being part of this amazing team of De Ruimte, and being part of this beautiful scene for experimental electronic music here in Amsterdam, but also with all our (international) guests worldwide.
I want to thank all musicians who played at a Ruisburo, all the people from De Ruimte, and in specific Robert Van T Veld and Bart Verbunt.
What will happen in the future that I will continue putting on annual Moving Furniture Records festival as long as that is possible. And if someone asks to curate an event I will consider doing so ;-)
Rest me to say: let's celebrate two more times, and see you October 18th and in November when we have our last party (more info soon).
