never split up,
they were involved in different projects over the last few years though that was always the case.
Tom was making a film or something as well. I saw him play in a solo gig here about 3 or 4 years ago
and he said a new deus album would be out in a year!

Yeah, dEUS what a band! 'Instant Street' is a thing of rare, exquisite beauty. One of the great, great songs of the nineties. (RIP Uaneen) And 'Little Arithmetics'from aeons ago!!!! Love 'em! I too was under the impression that they had called it a day. Hope the new stuff is good. They've a lot to live up to!

Whats so strange about that? Front 242 and Soulwax were from Belgium too. I suppose what suprising is in a country with so little to do, why there aren't more bands..  |

Don't forget the Glimmers, the Eskimo label, the Culture Club in Ghent and the infamous 10 days off festival. |

Not Really.
The Glimmers recently compiled a mix CD for the DJ Kicks series and they're booked to play with Mylo, Underworld and Basement Jaxx in Marlay Park this summer.
2 Many DJs were residents in the Culture Club for years.
The compilations released on the Eskimo label have recieved rave reviews in mainstream music magazines such as Q and Mojo.
And anyone with even the most basic knowledge of contemporary dance music should recognise a good portion of the acts playing at the 10 Days Off Festival; http://www.10daysoff.be/2005/flashcontent/uk/indexf.html
Just because you're not familiar with any of these doesn't mean that they're obscure. Maybe it's just not a a scene that you're in to. |

Fair point, Stroller.
Never been a huge fan of dance music, more into electronica/'indietronica'/ambient s**t like Eno, Aphex, Kraftwerk, Ulrich Schnauss, Lali puna etc rather than more mainstream 'dance' fare though I do think Underworld's 'dubnobass....' and 'dig yr own hole' are masterpieces but in general, 'dance' (it's a slippery, hard to define genre) never really, to quote the great Channel 4 news reporter in the field, Brian Fantana, 'revved my engine'ergo my general ignorance. Do like Layo and Bushwacka's 'Love story', all told...all right work over time to go home! |
