Live noises that sound like stuff looks like...

... It all went a bit wizzle fuzzy pop for a bit and then there were these herds of space goats nibbelling, always nibeling and a spot of nudging, but mostly nibbeling with slightly different spellings which would of been confusing if we could read but being totally blind it made not a jot of difference. And then there were these rainbows, really loud and larey and biffing into things so that everything was jingly and kinda of soft round the edges with bits of dangly fluff. The Emus were the worst though, really miserable with big fringes, one had a big minge that was well dark and cried a lot, we had to ask them to leave especially cos we were expecting a very posh leaf who might or might not have had some good contacts in the electrical circuirty department, never turned up in the end and we had to order a selection of sedimentary rocks instead. The weather was nice and sat in a corner telling stories to the kids and making tea for everyone except the bees who's legs were not really suitable and you had to hack your way through them just to move around but no one had thought to brought brung bring a machette so we had to use nuttella chocolate spread instead. Phew, what a pollarver, or it may have been a pullover cos i got sweaty and it felt a bit prickly but 7 rodents all told me simultaneously that i was imagining it so obviously i didnt believe them and carried on as if nothing had happened which confused everyone and we had to start again.

I am a student in the study room of story. 

Here are some of my explorations along the way. 

All Shall Be Well, from Haarlem (the Netherlands), play instrumental, cinematic music. They build on themes, thresh out their melodies and look for unsuspected harmonies. Their music is highly associative; they liken their music to stories rather than songs.

After their debut record ROODBLAUW (2011) and sophomore album BLAUWGEEL (2014), the band’s latest project revolves around interpreting the works of classical composers such as Ludwig von Beethoven and Edvard Grieg and remaking them into new arrangements and compositions fit for a band line-up with guitars, drums and bass. The resulting EP, GEELZWART, was released late 2016.

All Shall Be Well have taken their music across many borders, including Germany, Denmark, Norway, Italy and Belgium. At live performances their image projections visualise their music, adding a deeper layer to their stories.

The band sees transparency as a great virtue; they release all their music through the Creative Commons, making it accessible for all to experience, share and create endless renditions.
