The Music

The four-headed monster is back! After the success of the Challenge-debut "050" The Ploctones are back to surprise us with their musical energy.

Artist Background

The Ploctones. A group with a rare solidity, determination and flexibility. A genuine four-headed monster. Whether it concerns a rhythmic tour de force, a fun idea or a tearjerker, the quartet always sounds solid and the group members never cease to surprise each other. The changes and shifting times are whizzing past our ears.

With his ardent and passionate guitar plalng the versatile and innovating Anton Goudsmit developed into a musical chameleon without losing his recognizable and characteristic style. His miscellaneous compositions are the base of poetic improvisations and flashy power performances. A critic of the British 'Guardian' described Goudsmit as: "the kind of musician that makes you wonder where the fire escape is". He graduated cum laude at the Amsterdam Music Conservatory in 1995 and today he can be reckoned as one of the most influential guitarists of the Netherlands.

Jeroen Vierdag is a strong and creative bass player who lifts the band up to a higher level with his driving groove and great virtuosity, competing with his 6-string colleague. He's been around in the field of pop, jazz, Lalin and Brazilian music.

Martijn Vink is an extremely passionate drummer with a peerless technique. One moment he raises the roof and the next he colours and refines with the subtlety of a musical box. He is the regular drummer of the internationally renowned Metropole Orchestra and collaborated with many jazz giants

like Pat Metheny, Herbie Hancock and John Scofield.

Tenor saxophonist Efraim Trujillo stands out in hectic compositions as well as in a more ambient repertoire due to his open and dynamic playing. Because of his abundance of experience and ability to do anything with his instrument he renews and upgrades the music he plays and makes a concert of this group a special experience for the audience and the band members, time and again. Trujillo played with Courtney Pine, Benny Bailey; Steve Williamson and Bootsy Collins among many others.

Summary

The Ploctones surprise again with their new release. They are an extremely exiting band with unbelievable musical creativity. Never a dull moment with these excellent musicians, whether they play for a live audience or we listen to them at home, and fall out of our chairsl

Rezensionen

,,Das Quartett um den Gitarristen Anton Goudsmit fasst die Fusionmusik allerdings nicht wie häufig in dieser Branche als Gemischtwarenladen, der mit kommerzialisierter Hinwendung Richtung Pop und Funk zum massentauglichen Produkt gestylt wird. Nein, die Niederländer verkörpern die Anarcho-Fraktion dieses Genres." (Jazzthing, Juni-August 2011)
