Rotterdam-based artist LOVETH BESAMOH merges diverse influences from krautpunk and post-punk to afro-psychedelica and electronica into a sound that's as eclectic as it is compelling. With roots in Cameroon, where he honed his rhythmic talents in church and boarding school, Loveth seamlessly blends traditional African influences with modern genres to create music that's uniquely his own. Initially a solo project, Loveth Besamoh evolved into a dynamic four-piece band. Featuring Ywan van der Keur (drums), Do Milder (guitar), Quincy Fortes (bass), and Loveth himself on vocals and djembe, their live shows are known for their electrifying energy. APELAST is a psych-stoner rock band blending fuzzy, blues-infused solos with shoegaze textures and raw energy. Fronted by vocalist, guitarist, and producer Neta Apelast (also known for work with Acid Boys, Maggot Heart, Lucifer, and Otherface), the band performs in various lineups—ranging from a stripped-down duo to a full four-piece ensemble. Drawing inspiration from acts like Queens of the Stone Age, Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats, and Grand Funk Railroad, Apelast crafts a powerful sound that fuses high-octane rock'n'roll with emotional ballads. With gritty riffs, catchy melodies, and soulful vocals, their dynamic blend of heavy and heartfelt will shake your bones and stay in your head.
