Have you ever played for a tap dancer ? This happened to me only once, in 1991, when I was still playing drums. At the moment, I'm sorting out a video of that particular club-date that the piano-player, Patrice Galas, sent me. The dancer's name is Fabien Ruiz. He was 27 or 28 years old then, so he's about 50 now (I was 50 then). I remember really enjoying that completely unrehearsed gig, which was two nights in the same club, a real jazz-club where people watched and listened. Fabien took his art seriously, and still does.

Another installment of the Rebel Bran and the Funky Orkestar project.

Midnight yesterday evening. Far late enough as bed time for wise people... But I had not touched my vibes since I was back from the workshop... I closed the living room's door and took back my lonely mallets...

The rats and fish were quiet in the opposite corner. Ok, cool... But then I heard it. That noisy and disturbing clock on the cheminee that I always need to take off and put in the bathroom when I record something.

But this time I didn't hear it the same. It had become a lovely and soft 60 bpm metronome!

I thought this was a pretty good performance of etude 26. Let's see what David thinks!

Here's a tambourine that I made over the summer.

All of the parts added to this $20 tambourine are from a coal mine that I worked at.

Hope you like :)

Hey Everybody,

Yesterday I played in one of the best watched tv shows in Holland with a singer from Rotterdam, Ntjam Rosie. A really great band to play with. Below are two songs. One is a very short song where I play vibes and a little percussion the second one I play only percussion.

Hope you like it!

This is my arrangement of Ennio Morricone's piece Ecstacy of Gold.
