Thank God it’s Friday! Which means it’s time for a next bit of my Musicellaneous micro-discoveries!
Our hero today is the prog-djent duo Victoria.

Musicellaneous ‣ Owane

Our today’s Musicellaneous guest is the Norwegian multi-instrumentalist Owane. He employs a number of instruments by thoroughly weaving djent riffs into the jazz-funk texture of his compositions.
Owane (real name Øyvind Pedersen) is a musician from Sortland, Norway and he has released three albums to date.
Musicellaneous ‣ Arch Echo
Suddenly I got a whim to start a section about music, which could inform the dear reader about music pearls I discovered. I’d love to subscribe to something like that myself so that I could learn about new (or even forgotten old) talents. There are lots of them out there, but quite often they’re not widely known.
The choice of exhibits for Musicellaneous will be at my sole discretion, based on factors like how my left little toe feels, the weather on Io and Donald Trump’s statements.
And the first card in our card index will be the American progressive/djent band Arch Echo.
That Awkward Moment
That moment when you find out the official Riverside event page at Tivoli Vredenburg is illustrated with your video.
Riverside at De Boerderij
Oddland, Until Rain, Wolverine at De Boerderij
It’s been for the first time that a support act was as interesting for me as the headliners. At the end of the day, all three participants of The Progressive Aspects Tour proved to be up to par!
David Maxim Micic, Disperse, Plini at Patronaat
It was the second time that the surprisingly talented young Australian guitarist Plini has visited us here. In the show last year, which I didn’t get to post about, he was supporting the djent stars Animals as Leaders.
This time he was himself the headliner, and his support acts were David Maxim Micic and Disperse.
The Way You Make Me Feel: a masterpiece of looping
Ayreonian craze
Five days ago the mighty Arjen Lucassen has announced on his Facebook page two live shows of his Ayreon mega-project, which got the name Ayreon Universe. The shows were scheduled for 15 and 16 September 2017, with the official ticket sale starting on 24 November at 10:00 CET.
Shadowrise and Myrath at Patronaat
Last Saturday was marked by a show by the prog metal band Myrath from Tunisia (Northern Africa). The venue was the club Patronaat in Haarlem, Netherlands. Myrath is unique not only because of its origin, but also thanks to a magnificent combination of heavy sound and Arabic motives and instruments in their music. Furthermore, they have a belly dancer!
But first things first.
