WRIKKEN

Cinematic minimal music, experimental techno and sick jazz

Wrikken is a project of Ivo Bol and Joris van Perlo. who have made music together since they were 15. It originated in the Dutch city of Groningen where they played in cult bands like Soom, Plan Kruutntoone, Wastewell and G.I. Magnetic Inflatable Carrot plane. In 1996 they composed music for strings, saxophone and electric guitar. After 1996 their music has become more and more electronic.

The music of Wrikken is constructed during an ongoing process of redefining their own sound, based mostly on samples made from their own music. Influences are Minimal music, Coil, Beefheart, David Lynch. Wrikken collaborated with several theatremakers, filmmakers and visual artists. They have been touring in Germany and Holland with their live soundtrack for Maya Deren’Äôs film Ritual In Transfigured Time (1945-46). Stichting Mixer released their debut single.
