Bragolin

In the organizer's words:

Bragolin is a Dutch post-punk/dark wave project by Edwin van der Velde.
The music contains influences from different decades with baritone guitar, synthesizers and drum machines from the 80s drum machines, organs from the 60s/70s and shoegaze guitars from the 90s. The lyrics are inspired by post-apocalyptic and horror films.

In 2018, the debut album 'I Saw Nothing Good So I Left' was released, with 'Into Those Woods' as the first music video. The song, with its sticky baritone melody, is now a modern dancefloor classic. The album was produced by Van der Velde together with Isolde Woudstra and mixed by René Jongeneelen, with whom Van Der Velde also worked on various records by the Dutch wave project Zwarte Poëzie.
Maria Karssenberg also joined Bragolin in 2018, and since then the duo has played over 40 shows at various festivals and parties across Europe. Highlights included Wave Gotik Treffen, Extramuralhas, Waveteef, Kalabalik and Grauzone.

For the second album, released in 2019, Van Der Velde teamed up with Adam Tristar to write the 'Bragolin vs Adam Tristar' album 'Let Out The Noise Inside'. As of 2020, Edwin Daatselaar joins Bragolin as a synthesizer player to form the current live duo. Both Edwins also play together in Zwarte Poëzie.
