Video: Ben Westbeech - Interview
Last month I joined Jan Peeters to interview Ben Westbeech, protégé of Gilles Peterson on his new label Brownswood Recordings.
A couple of hours before Ben Westbeech’s gig in Leuven, we join him for a beer and a relaxed chat in front of Leuven’s train station.
After having launched our joint criticism on the strange and not that well succeeded architectural combination of the neoclassical train station, its ultramodern canopy and the red brick bus station, our conversation takes of with Bristol, a safe haven for new electronical sounds coming from for instance Massive Attack, Tricky, Portishead and Roni Size. Bristol seems to be quite a heavily bass-influenced town… (Read the rest of the interview.)
And/or tune in right here:
Ben is performing live in Kortrijk this Saturday the 14th of July, sharing the stage with Jimi Tenor, all for free, so go check that out!
He’s also playing at Dour Festival, which is sold out for the first time, apparently.
