SATURDAY NIGHT WIM MERTENS, SONIC YOUTH.

Wim Mertens is a Belgian/Flemish minimalist composer. I guess I may be boring the Belgians among the audience with the following number, Close Cover, but for foreigners it's a good start to become acquainted with this man's work.





Mertens, which by the way is a very typical Belgian/Flemish name, composed a.o. music for the 1987 Peter Greenaway movie The Belly of an Architect. Never saw that one nor made any effort for it, even though I like its main actor, Brian Dennehy.


Sonic Youth with The Diamond Sea.





From the album Washing Machine (1995).


Goedenacht. Twas a very busy week again.
