- The 14-track archival collection, Eigen Boezem, is out May 22nd.
For its next archival project, the Belgian label STROOM will release a compilation of works from Hessel Veldman.
Veldman was a key figure in the Dutch home-taping scene, an international DIY network which flourished in the late '70s and '80s. He and his wife Nicole ran Exart, a tape label which served as an outlet for their own projects, such as Y Create and Gorgonzola Legs, and other visionaries like Enno Velthuys.
Despite the low-key nature of Exart releases, Veldman would often cull choice segments from hours and hours of home recordings. The tracks on the forthcoming collection, Eigen Boezem, range from avant-pop to minimalist synth funk, and draw from throughout his catalogue.
