Wanna hear what it sounds like? Buy it!
Or just listen to the track in the player ;-))

Sorry!

Sorry for the radio silence lately, alot of things came on my way, so my priorities shifted a little bit.
Iris and me are busy planning some events and my live act for corporate events is also time consuming!
And ofcourse Storm!
The gig pictures where taken at a large event for SAP, where I produced the music for the intro, and added some live drums on stage!
After that I did a dj set with some soul and funk and jazz, and after that I performed with Erick E as the closing act!
Pretty versatile huh? ;-)

Here's a little registration of their performance @ Starbeach.

STORM IS DOING GREAT!

Good Report of Soares & Unders show @ Emporium!

Tekst; Bianca Berger..... Nadat Youri Donatz behoorlijk wordt overstemd door de overbuurman geeft Bart B More een set met de hippe Ed Banger-sound. De cool kids die we eerder bij Don Diablo en Boys Noize stonden hebben zich nu hier verzameld, wat een behoorlijk voller strand oplevert. Klapstuk is wel Soares & Unders die hun muziek live ten gehore brengen. De smerige bassen en huppelende loopjes is het hoogtepunt op dit podium. Het tweetal staat gedreven aan de knoppen te draaien. Hun energie weten ze prima over te brengen aan de dansende massa voor hen.

KENNY DOPE & NORM REUNITE!

3 times nominated grammy award artist Kenny Dope, emailed Norman a day after a show where they played side to side saying "All i can say is that your electricfying."

The 7th of June Kenny & Norman will be reunited, @ Bitchclub! Maassilo.
So check out the electricfying chemistry between the two of them!

PUURR!

Roog, Leroy Styles, Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano, Mc Nova & Norman Soares will be opening 010, the new venue inside the Maassilo, Rotterdam for a very exclusive clothing-store in The Hague; PUURR, you will find renowned brands like John Galliano and BlueBlood on the shelf...Nice.... check thier website: www.puurr.com

Soares & UNDERS love CLUB PLAYERS!

The premiere has been swell....especially 'cos we performed for the first time with not (too) much expectations. But......it was fantastic!
We would like to say a million thanks to all the dj/friends from the scene who came to check us out on their night off.
But most off all Guillermo and Ryan of Club Players... By building a stage in the middle of the dancefloor, with superb lighteffects, and so much dedication, they gave us the BEST start of Soares & Unders we could ever hope for!! X!!!

SOARES & UNDERS @ PLAYERS

SOARES & UNDERS (LIVE)
Eigenlijk zou het artiestenduo Soares & Unders hun liveset als aftrapper op een grootschalig event presenteren, maar er is besloten om deze première in Club Players te houden – tot grootse trots van de club.
Al laat de naam wellicht andere beelden rijzen, Soares speelt GEEN percussie en Dunca zet GEEN traditionele DJ set neer. Zonder hun geheime set te verklappen, biedt een tip van sluier zicht op hun werk met synthezisers, drumsequencers en Ableton. Vanaf een speciaal voor hen ingerichte podium geven Soares & Dunca een levendige draai aan de avond, met een funky tech/minimal set in een uniek jasje, zoals nog nooit op Nederlandse bodem vertoond is! This is something you'll remember…

SOARES & UNDERS PREMIERE!

Soares & Unders, something you'll remember!!
Come, watch and enjoy this totally new liveset. Norman will not be playin' percussion, (well not so much) but will play synths and sequencers instead!!!
Wonderchild Dunca will be controlling the knobs beside him!!!
THIS SHIT IS LIVE!!!

IN THE SPOTLIGHT BY HI!

KPN's interactive magazine puts Norm's new liveset in the shiner!
You can find him on page 13!
