Info for FUTUREBRASS

Musically, Gallowstreet relies on striking horn melodies that float above driving kick drums reminiscent of disco and house, complemented by retro-futuristic synth sounds and the strategic use of effects. The result is a cohesive, sound-driven narrative: arranged brass sections meet studio textures, creating a sequence of moods ranging from dark cyberpunk to an optimistic, eco-conscious aesthetic. The band heralded this project with singles like "Can You Imagine?" and "Le Confluence," and the album seamlessly blends danceable moments with cinematic passages.

The band presents the material as a tight, live-ready ensemble; the arrangements allow room for both brass-driven chaos and precise synth work. On the "Futurebrass" album, Gallowstreet distills its evolution into a modern brass band that fuses club-oriented rhythms with orchestral brass arrangements, dissolving conventional boundaries between acoustic and electronic elements.

"With "Futurebrass", Gallowstreet cements its status as one of Europe’s most progressive brass bands. The album successfully blends the energy of live brass music with the emotional impact and danceability of French Touch and electronic music. The result is a fresh, ambitious, and—above all—incredibly fun record that showcases the versatility of a modern-day brass band. It is traditional enough to remain recognizable, yet innovative enough to push boundaries." (earplugged.nl)

Gallowstreet

Gallowstreet
the Dutch brass band with an attitude. Hailing from the Galgenstraat in Amsterdam they have refined their sound through the course of 5 albums.

A decade of innovating brass music. Gallowstreet has been up and at it. This squad of dedicated musicians from Amsterdam has been proving its worth at festivals and clubs both in the Netherlands and abroad. Armed with 7 horn players and 1 drummer the band employs a wide range of musical genres to tell stories with their compositions, most of them beat driven, all of them with anthemic quality.

Gallowstreet has proven to be a big inspiration for the emerging European Brass Band scene: “la reference du brass band Europeenne”, someone comments on one of the band’s many Youtube clips for their last album Laaglands. A reference point for musicians that look to the band for inspiration. There’s no week that goes by without a video of one of the songs being covered by young enthusiastic brass bands from around the globe. Their songs have seen re-arrangements for a wide range of ensembles and Gallowstreet has been a consistent source of inspiration for other bands.

With “A Trip Worth Making” the Gallowstreet crew reflects on their communal journey and revisits the challenges, opportunities and celebrations they’ve had along the way, both as a group and as individual musicians. It is a culmination of the sound they’ve developed throughout the years, effectively using ready-to-sing-along anthems, intelligently orchestrated drops and builds and emotionally laden riffs to build an album that delivers some of the heaviest brass music the world has ever heard.

With shows on Lowlands, North Sea Jazz, Bout Du Monde, in Algeria, Slowakia and Turkey and sold out clubshows in the famous Paradiso in Amsterdam and the legendary New Morning in Paris the band is a well-traveled, seasoned ensemble that knows the crack of the whip when it comes to playing big shows for large crowds.

This album contains no booklet.
