Collignon
Viemos De Longe/visita Noturna
Collignon is a three-piece band with Yves Lennertz on guitar (and bass), Gino Bombrini on drums (and percussion) and Jori Collignon on the keyboards (and taking care of the production). The three friends have been making music together for some time, collaborating in different groups and settings, Jori and Gino as part of the band Skip&Die, Gino as a producer for Yves' former group, Yin Yin. 'Viemos De Longe' is high-energy, Funana-inspired groove featuring Gino's distinctive style of simultaneously playing the drums with his right hand and the congas with his left. Cape Verdian themes mix with Yves' Thai phin solo, in a psychedelic dubby spring-verbed tape-delayed production. 'Visita Noturna' is a bass-heavy track and a bit of a fight with pitch. When performed live it can feel like trying to tame a wild horse on stage.
