merch community 2XLIVE88 by Het Zweet

 

Het Zeet was a project of Marien Van Oers from Breda (NL), active from 1983 to 1988. A majestic drones section along with tribalistic drumming and percussion as well as spoken word are just a few of the elements of the whole compositional work of late Marien who sadly passed away in 2013.

These two cds released in a nice pacakage by none other than Erik Van Havere from EE Tapes is a testimony to his live output.

Het Zweet live was exceptionaly driven and definitely one of those post-industrial monikers that stay with you for quite a while. Thanks to open minded approach - you have a whole theatricality of his shows laid out quite explicitly. There is a narrative to his show - an evocative and in many ways romantic feel to it pushes you towards understanding how music could be used in tribal culture.

There is a subtle poetry in this material that has vanished from music hopefully not forever. Thank you, Erik for taking good care of the legacy to preserve it in this form.
