LANDER & ADRIAAN

LANDER & ADRIAAN

Lander & Adriaan is a Belgian duo featuring drummer Lander Gyselinck (STUFF.,Beraadgeslagen, Hihats In Trees) and Adriaan Van de Velde (Pomrad, Mauro Pawlowski, J. Bernardt).

Their shared fondness for slick digital synths and underground dance music genres from the ’90s brought them together to jam symbiotically at the very first lockdown in 2020. Since then, they haven’t stopped raving, releasing energy and records at a steady pace.

Over the past few years, they have evolved into an unmissable live act, igniting a craze wherever they play their 360° set. A legendary surprise concert at Kiosk Radio in Brussels for Lefto Early Bird’s weekly show marked the beginning of their international career after the live video went viral. Their performances at Down The Rabbit Hole and Into The Great Wide Open in 2023 caused such a stir that they have been busy touring ever since. The following year, their sets at Lowlands and Pukkelpop received rave reviews and made several top 10 lists for best live shows of the 2024 festival summer.

Their wacky mashup of corny jazz with all sorts of ’90s dance genres like Chicago juke, Detroit techno, UK-Funky and Classic rave, leads you into a world of (not so) guilty pleasures, sweet drum frenzies, pulpy saccharine melodies and mushy bass lines, all gently woven into raw dance music.
