Oceanic & Greetje Bijma
Timid techno DJ and voice supreme navigating between the surf and the club
Dat dj/producer Oceanic – ooit vaste gast bij Trouw en De School – en avant-gardistisch stemkunstenares Greetje Bijma ooit een duo zouden vormen, was al onwaarschijnlijk. Dat de samenwerking zo lang zou bestaan des te meer. Tot je hoort en ziet hoe de twee elkaar aanvullen. Neem het nieuwste project Sykheljende Lûden (Fries voor 'ademgeluiden'), waarop het tweetal de Waddenzee tot leven brengt, elk met hun eigen instrument. Bijma zingt de zee, het strand, de sterns en de steltlopers. Oceanic haalt de wind en het tij uit zijn modulaire synths. Soms worden beiden één en soms is het touwtrekken geblazen. Bedachtzaam vs. uitbundig. Des te woeliger de baren.
That DJ/producer Oceanic – once a regular guest at Trouw and De School – and avant-garde vocal artist Greetje Bijma would ever form a duo was already unlikely. That the collaboration would last this long is even more surprising. Until you hear and see how they complement each other. Take the latest project Sykheljende Lûden (Frisian for 'breath sounds'), in which the duo brings the Wadden Sea to life, each with their own instrument. Bijma sings the sea, the beach, the terns, and the waders. Oceanic draws the wind and the tide from his modular synths. Sometimes both become one, and sometimes it’s a tug of war. Thoughtful vs. exuberant. The more turbulent the waves.
