There is something to be said about a guy jumps on stage and delivers one of the most moving performances of a lifetime, especially when there are only two people in the crowd. This would be the case for the new Warhaus video 'Machinery'. Directed by fashion photographer Willy Vanderperre, Warhaus aka Maarten Devoldere, sings in a near empty establishment with only Sylvie Kreusch (who also sings on many of the Warhaus album tracks), looking on before making out and dancing in front of some random bloke.
Just as we're still riding high from his song 'Bruxelles' which was shared last month, Maarten Devoldere aka Warhaus now brings forth another track called 'Memory'. Extending his classic 1960s feel of hazy rock and roll, Devoldere commands the listener to not only be swayed by the savy production, but to follow the content of the story which is reminiscent of deliveries by acts such as Nick Cave.
Over the past couple months, Maarten Devoldere of Balthazar fame has been sharing a few tracks under his solo moniker Warhaus. This is all apart of the lead-up to his forthcoming album 'We Fucked A Flame Into Being', out September 2nd via PIAS. His latest musical treat comes in the form of the song 'Bruxelles'. Cinematic and radiating with a classic feel, backed by head-nodding drums that would be a Hip-Hop producer's wet dream, Devoldere has tapped into the ultimate core of musical swagger and 'Bruxelles' is an irresistible work of art. Have a listen.
Maarten Devoldere aka Warhaus brings forth his new single 'I'm Not Him'. The steamy, cinematic
piece of alternative would probably be the music of a seductive scene in a movie, as it drips with a the utmost of dark cool. The track is taken from Warhaus' debut album 'We Fucked A Flame Into Being', out September 2nd.
Touching on the new record, in a press statement Warhaus wrote:
"I'm at the end of my twenties now. With this record I close an important period," avers Devoldere. “It’s an ode to love, to its excesses and elusiveness. Though love songs are a form of advertising: you portray a woman and the listener should fall in love with her too."
