Wander are Freek Kinkelaar and Frans de Waard, also known as Beequeen. Since changing Beequeen´s musical direction in the summer of 2000 (drones out and `popmusic´ in). However, since they both love drone music, they founded Wander in 2001. In Wander they explore drone music in it´s widest possible form, with each new release exploring a specific concept. Wander will release their music on various formats, but every format only once. Each release is called Wander, and there is a total absense of any information on the cover. So far they have released a 10inch on their own Plinkity Plonk label, a LP for En/Of, a split 7inch on Plinkity Plonk (a split single with Beequeen), a CDR on XZF and a 7inch on Edition... and a forthcoming split 7inch recorded in collaboration with Andrew Liles.
The material was recorded in the analogue studio Geluidswerkplaats Extrapool in late 2004 and early 2005, using a wide variety of vintage synthesizers (juno 60, korg MS20, roland SH 102 and Arp synthesizer) and a Philicordia organ. The four long pieces breath an atmospheric, pastoral sound of slow and deep evolving drones. The CD was mastered by Raymond Steeg of The Legendary Pink Dots´ fame. The images on the cover and the disc were made with the help of Elise de Waard. Released in a special cardboard package with varnished images.
