The undefinable Kaboom Karavan returns to the dusty Belgian roads with a total Fiasko! -- or a full blown disaster if you will (seen from a minimalist perspective), although one that might be the antidote to the sterilized and scattered world. Fiasko! represents a musical chaos that feels both ecstatic, fun, as well as deeply melancholic. Like an overwhelming moment where the world seems to touch you on all senses. This is music for a new underground of black-tie workers raising up to the dullness of societal norms by connecting to their inner child. It's protest music towards the new normal, where the rules are thrown out of the window and unpredictable sense of joy prevails. Shortly said, Fiasko! is contemporary exotica made by a madman with too much time on his hands. As usual, Kaboom Karavan releases contains a conglomerate of strange, mostly home-made instrumentation, which will be too long to list here. To shorten it down? Bram Bosteels himself, the captain of the ship, plays all kinds of acoustic instruments, guitars, electronics and uses his voice. Additionally, there is Bart Maris on trumpet, tuba and trombone. Stefaan Smagghe plays violin and sarangi. Lastly comes Raphael de Cock on such typical instruments as igir, jadagan and uillean pipes. All that remains to be said is: Bring your neighbour, let yourself loose and have some fun. Listen to Fiasko!
