SUMMARY:ORCHESTRE TOUT PUISSANT MARCEL DUCHAMP XXL (CH)
LOCATION:OCCII\, Amstelveenseweg 134\, 1075 XL Amsterdam
GEO:52.354725;4.855206
DESCRIPTION:OCCII ON TOUR!\nOrchestre Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp XXL @ Wi
 llem de Zwijgerkerk\, olympiaweg 14 Amsterdam.\nOrchestre Tout Puissant Ma
 rcel Duchamp is a perpetually evolving ‘orchestra’\, loosely modelled 
 on the great 20th-century African groups like Tout Puissant Orchestre Poly
 -Rythmo de Cotonou and tipping its hat to revolutionary French artist Marc
 el Duchamp.\n\n\n\nNew album “Ventre Unique” – their sixth\, and the
  successor to 2021’s acclaimed We’re Ok But We’re Lost Anyway – is
  as exuberant as it is emotionally fraught with a dream amalgam of folk\, 
 krautrock\, post-punk and African rhythms that feels both uncluttered and 
 beautifully organic. The album has been released on Bongo Joe Records (Vin
 cent Bertholet co-founded the label with Cyril Yeterian)\, with band and l
 abel both sharing a collective vision that was forged from Geneva’s punk
  history and squat scene. It finds them once again exploring contemporary 
 anxieties and setting them to music that balances fat\, loping grooves –
  built around simple loops written by Bertholet – sparkling marimba\, st
 rident horns and strings with dissonance and angular guitar riffs. The bea
 utiful sleeve art comes courtesy of French painter Dove Perspicacius. The 
 recording of Ventre Unique took place over ten days in a studio near Paris
 \, Studio Midilive in Villetaneuse\, and was overseen by Johannes Buff who
  mixed the previous “We’re Ok But We’re Lost Anyway.”\n\nThe orche
 stra is comprised of an international cast of 12 musicians including many 
 OTPMD regulars: Frenchman Gilles Poizat on bugle\, lead vocalist Liz Mosca
 rola\, two marimba players (Aïda Diop and Elena Beder)\, two drummers (Ga
 briel Valtchev and Guillaume Lantonnet)\, guitarists (Romane Millet and Ti
 ti)\, a trombonist (Gif)\, a viola-player (Thomas Malnati-Levier)\, a cell
 ist (Naomi Mabanda) and Bertholet on double bass. Every one of the musicia
 ns is a singer too\, contributing to the glorious mass of vocals that give
 s OTPMD songs their emotional resonance and ritualistic power. They also w
 orked with new vocalists: Mara Krastina (who will be more involved with th
 e group in future) from Swiss band Massicot on Smiling Like A Flower and F
 rançois Marry from French group Frànçois and the Atlas Mountains – yo
 u can hear the latter’s distinctively lilting tone on Tout Haut. Followi
 ng the release of We’re Ok But We’re Lost Anyway also on Swiss label B
 ongo Joe\, the group – a travelling party of 14 people\, including two s
 ound engineers – crossed numerous borders themselves\, playing around 15
 0 shows and touring in territories they’d never visited before: Canada\,
  USA\, the Balkans\, Greece.\n\n\n\nWillem de Zwijgerkerk\nKunst\, zin en 
 cultuur in de Stadionbuurt\n\nMidden in de Stadionbuurt is er ruimte voor 
 iedereen. De ‘Willem’ is een plek voor de buurt waar mensen samenwerke
