The Peruvian-raised and Berlin-grown artist, Sofia Kourtesis, puts her kiddy cats away for the hour to discuss her drive behind the cause, her musical upbringings, and the prospective threads she seeks. The refreshing Sofia Kourtesis has been a hurricane on the radar and has failed to disappoint with her newfangled EP, the rejuvenating and liberating Fresia Magdalena. The exceptional quality of the EP parallels her production possibilities and heightens her buzz. Delightfully cinematic and sunny, Fresia Magdalena EP is named after Kourtesis' mother, Fresia, and is dedicated to her activism work in their hometown Magdalena, Lima. The lovely Kourtesis embodies herself as an true empath; her grit for activism runs deep in her familial roots and personal experiences. Because despite pandemic headlines, plaguing issues perpetuate. Kourtesis' presence on the album is even more magnetizing, as enchanting synths wines and dines her (debut) velvety voice. The sample powerhouse pairs her lo-fi cuts with crisp rings and bell tones to compose a dancey blissful transaction. She also shares her multidisciplinary skillset in the hour and how her diverse expertise allows her to wholly steer her artistic vision. To ensure her concept is authentically executed from top to bottom, she holds visual and auditorial jurisdiction in all creative projects. This is Kourtesis’ final word about the album as she transitions into her next life chapter, moving away from Fresia Magdalena’s limelight and into the studio in the coming months to work on her next album.

Here and there people speak about similiarities between certain electronic and classical music - the deeper listening experience, that envokes certain emotions through purely melodic progressions, that are bathed in crescending storytelling. The Neoclassical movement further intertwines the symbiosis of these fairly different genres and might underline the comparison between the two. After the rise of world-renowned artists like Nils Frahm, Olafur Arnalds and others, the artistic pool has started to grow within this direction.

With an ear for hypnotic repetitions and mysterious tension, Joram Feitsma further developes the spheres of neoclassical music. His dexterity and courage to push for improvised sections, that are created through his hands and onto the piano, introduce you to indescribable atmospheres. Through a strong focus on the back-and-forth play between silence and loudness, Joram captures unfiltered and vast emotions from vulnerable to ecstatic, while mostly relying on melancholic ideas that feel deep and connecting. This special set today is a first taste of Joram's ability to create a wide space, to invite you into a ride of emotional weight, while exploring various places and feelings, going up and down and hopefully taking your hand into a fascinating genre, created by just one instrument and two human hands.

No More Sleep w/ Joram Feitsma (Live)

Raised in a small village in the very north of the Netherlands and currently residing in Utrecht, Feitsma essentially contributed new nuances to the ever-increasing scene of piano-driven music - an instrument he started to sink his teeth into at an early age already - with his 2019 debut “Under“. The album combined the timeless with the contemporary, offering an intense ride which instantly triggers a palette of emotions among the audience they weren’t aware they were hiding. Two years later, Feitsma’s exploration of the manifold possibilities to manipulate and exhaust his trusted piano continues with a 15-track album titled “Flux“, which feels like the logical successor to “Under“, even though it isn’t shying away from subtlety breaking fresh musical ground. The music of Joram Feitsma is an elaborate affair, it’s deeply heartfelt, it’s sensual, it’s ambivalent, it’s volatile, it’s stunningly beautiful - it’s a work of transience that’s here to stay with the power to emotionally destroy you in the best possible way.
–	Sven Fortmann, Lodown Magazine, on Flux and Under

Plentiful in its exhortation, rich in its search for the meaning in emotion while the accompanying instrumentation seemingly feels restrained, poignant to the point of haunting intensity. Even the playing is exhilarating when it is being quiet. The thing about experiencing Stroom is the sheer quality of detail. As if each note means something on its own, as if each piece occupies exactly the right time. 
–	Greg Fenton, Magazine Sixty, on Stroom
