Bobvan aka Bob Vanderbob is a composer, video artist, writer and communication artist based in Brussels. He attended the legendary Creative Music Studio in New York, then founded quirky postpunk group Des Airs (alongside Catherine Jauniaux, Fanchon Nuyens and Stephane Karo), whose mini-album Lunga Notte was recently reissued as part of the Crammed Archives series. Two years after LoonyChip Classics, Bobvan released a second album on Crammed, Water Dragon, which reflected his interest in acousmatic music.
BOBVAN RELEASES ”FULANIIZE” MUSIC VIDEO
Discover Bobvan's artistic finesse as he unveils a new video for 'Fulaniize', to mark the first digital issue of his 1991 album ”LoonyChip Classics”
Here is what Bobvan says about the track and the music video: Fulaniize was born from the reminiscence of my encounter, 15 years earlier, with a little girl on a dusty road in West Africa. She taught me the first two lines of a ditty about nomad children and their love for beans. I developed the track around my vocals. In view of this new release of LoonyChip Classics, Crammed suggested that I create a video for Fulaniize. I took great pleasure in weaving a visual poem to the music, centred on shape of the circle, in celebration of the Solar System, our home.
