Kapotte Muziek – Collage N°2
Biography
Nijmegen, The Netherlands (1984 – present)
Kapotte Muziek was founded in 1984 by Frans de Waard, then living in Nijmegen, The Netherlands. Soon he was joined by Christian Nijs, who also lived in Nijmegen. They did not actually play together, though: Christian would record all the sounds at home on cassettes and give them to Frans, who would manipulate the material in different ways (pitch-change, loops, etc.).
This way of working (using ‘second-hand’ material and recycling it endlessly) became the core of the activities of Kapotte Muziek.
In 1987 Christian left the project in favour of playing rock-music in a band. His farewell to industrial music was marked with a memorable Kapotte Muziek concert (the second Kapotte Muziek live concert) in V2 in Den Bosch, The Netherlands.
Until 1993 Frans continued the project on his own, inviting as many musicians as he knew to send in material to be recycled. This resulted in collaborations with groups like SBOTHI, Merzbow, De Fabriek, Yeast Culture, Odal, Asmus Tietchens and many others. For example, with Merzbow a collaboration concert was performed live on an illegal radio station in Nijmegen. Gradually, the harsh territory of industrial music was left behind and other forms of electro-acoustic music were explored.
