Kyteman's Hiphop Orkest - The Hermit Sessions Live [Clear Vinyl] [Import]

National newspaper De Volkskrant: ‘MASTERFUL AND
THRILLING' and ‘A MUSICAL MIRACLE!'
The year 2009 was for trumpet player Collin Benders, a.k.a.
Kyteman, an absolute triumph. From seemingly out of nowhere
he creates his Hiphop Orkest, which blends an exciting mix of
(big band) jazz, hip hop, reggae, pop, Balkan beats and classical
music. His debut performance during the Noorderslag festival in
Groningen turns out to be the highlight of the entire festival,
and the start of one success following yet another. His debut
album ''The Hermit Sessions'' does extremely well and stays
nearly continuously in the Album Top 20, with the gorgeous
single ''Sorry'' missing the Number 1 spot by just a hair. The
foundation of his success is without a doubt the sensational
performances of his Hiphop Orkest, 24 members strong. The
press has been unanimous in their praise. VPRO's 3VOOR12
describes his Noorderslag debut by writing 'some people have
already called him the hip hop Mozart. He is, to say the least, a
phenomenon’
The Volkskrant national newspaper says the Orkest is 'the
sensation of the festival' and the same paper describes a
Kyteman show in the Melkweg, Amsterdam as 'a spectacular
pageant with unparalleled expression’. The international
Pinkpop festival became ‘the greatest Kyte-fest ever
experienced’ and ‘Kyteman writes history' at the famed
Lowlands festival, in the summer of 2009.
A high-quality registration of one of the most spectacular
performances of Kyteman's Hiphop Orkest, could not be
omitted: as a memory for everyone who was lucky enough to be
there, and also as an introduction for all of the music lovers who
somehow managed to miss the phenomenon that spread
through all the major club venues and festivals in the
Netherlands in 2009 - Kyteman's Hiphop Orkest.
Now for the first time available on vinyl.
