Lente Kabinet & Kornuit present: Podiumdieren
Lente Kabinet (Dekmantel’s sister-festival) and Kornuit happily announce the second video in their Podiumdieren (‘stage animals’) series with Maastricht-based band Yīn Yīn. The series stems from the collaboration of the two parties and puts a spotlight on musicians by diving into their preparations, work processes, routines and live performance. This second video highlights the Dutch duo, existing of Kees Berkers and Yves Lennertz, who released their first hit EP ‘Dion Ysiusk’ on 7” inch label Bongo Joe, with a second one on its way later on this year.
Kees Berkers and Yves Lennertz are not only band members; they also live right next to each other. The two have been making music together for quite some time now, but they’ve been in many different bands in the past. It’s exactly that kind of experience that shines through their music, which is educated and fresh. Within the band, Kees plays the drums and percussions, whilst Yves focuses on the guitar. Music-wise, Yīn Yīn is influenced by a lot of Asian and Eastern sounds. “There’s a lot of Eastern/Asian inspiration in our music actually: Pakistani influences, Japanese stuff… it’s hard to differentiate.”
The video illustrates their work ethics (“I always feel the urge to make music, but it’s simply not always possible”) and shows how performing can be a way of zoning out. “We always try to find a balance between between our concentration, listening to the other musicians and catching the vibe of the crowd. It is a really weird zone where you find yourself in sometimes, because I can kind of get lost in this whilst drumming. I sometimes just ‘wake up’ at a certain point during a performance and I realize I’ve actually been in this ‘zen-state’ for quite a while.” All together, it shortly captures how two musicians from Maastricht have managed to make something unique of their own.
