About event
On Harp Swells (release date: September 8th) Will Samson has crafted the most absorbing work of his career. Pulled together from all manner of inspired instruments and ideas, it offers a gorgeously glowing flow for the listeners to climb inside; a truly alluring escape from the world. Next to Lisbon, London and Berlin, Will Samson heads to Pilar Brussels to perform a special ambient performance together with Belgian artist and violinist Beatrijs De Klerck.
Line up
Pieter Dudal, sound artist from Ghent, is not only a musician but also the founder and curator of the labels Dauw and blickwinkel. His music is characterized by lo-fi melodies surrounded by slowly building soundscapes, resulting in delicate electro-acoustic compositions.
In his over 10 years of releasing records, the music of Will Samson has always been underpinned with ambient characteristics and qualities. Though often led by his tender voice, Samson’s work is deeply textural, always offering as much space for instrumental excursions as the lyrical narratives he layers above them. Until now, Will has considered his solely-ambient work more as side-projects, contemplative digressions from his more defined musical path. Having previously released an EP via 12k back in 2016, Samson returns to Taylor Deupree’s experimental label to fully embrace the genre with the release of the Harp Swells LP – his first full-length ambient album.
'As a purveyor of music that ventures through complex sound layers and texturally rich tones, it's obvious why we are fans of his' i-D
