PLAY STATION 6
Maartje ten Hoorn-violin, Eric Boeren-cornet, Tobias Delius-tenor sax, Maynrad Kneer-bass, Achim Kaufmann-piano, Paul Lovens-drums
The six members of Play Station 6 follow their own set of rules. That is why their compact improvisations come out sounding like thoughtful avant-garde compositions. Each of these European improvisers are eccentric enough not to need solos to distinguish him- or herself. ‘As wonky as an afternoon on skunk in an Amsterdam coffee house and as exhilarating as jet-skiing the canals’ (The Wire).
