Nevel
The Hageland
Nevel is a Belgian electronic one man project, based deep in the Hageland. The Hageland is a real existing region situated between the Belgian cities of Leuven and Diest. Its a particularly attractive hilly landscape. Hiking in this region will surprise you with many varied landscapes, such as plains, hills and lush forests. The double CD is split up into the more up tempo, 4/4 kick driven The Hike (CD1) and the ambient/experimental oriented The Cooldown(CD2). Both CDs hold 10 tracks and all tracks are named after streets and places in The Hageland. Listening to this 2CD is an intense trip, sometimes harsh, sometimes lush, sometimes eerie, sometimes peaceful. Diversity is guaranteed on this eclectic album and will appeal to fans of modern intelligent indie electronics and Nevel has already received eloquent comparisons with prestigious bands in the likes of NEU, CAN and POPOL VUH, but also with contemporary acts such as The Orb, Boards Of Canada, Biosphere, Trentemoller Aphex Twin and Dominik Eulberg. For "Asdonk" Nevel asked the help of Traumasutra (1/2 of Belgian EBM duo Liquid Trauma and core member of Hybryds) to do his dark ambient magic and for "Vlooiberg" Propulsion, Nevel's previous band, was drawn in to participate.
