Tired of listening to wannabe bands that play loud, rambunctious songs that they pass of as “music”? Fret not; there’s a new band in town called Rendezvous about to launch its first album – and boy, do they know their music.
Although Rendezvous is about to introduce their very first album mainstream this year, it won’t be the first time they’ll be sharing their music. They’ve been around for about five years now, having released their first EP years ago and earning the praise of jazz and electronica aficionados.
Their music acts like a balm, soothing you yet giving you a tingly feeling. At least, their first three tracks released five years ago have that effect. But for their debut album to be released this year, they are going beyond their safety zone and venturing deeper into music.
Hagai Izenberg and Itai Simon, the two men behind Rendezvous, are collaborating with none other than Dave Bascombe for their first album. Bascombe has mixed and produced for famous artists before, including Natalie Imbruglia, Bon Jovi, Kylie Minogue, Depeche Mode, Moby, and many other music greats. This fact comes as no surprise; albeit new in mainstream music, Rendezvous is far from being amateur music-wise.
Rendezvous’ debut album features many surprises, including a string orchestra, a darbuka, and analog instruments that give electronica a whole new perspective. Mixing in these elements has been a good call thus far, earning Rendezvous thousands upon thousands of track downloads from their official website and music video views on their official YouTube channel.
Never a band that takes their craft lightly, Rendezvous also teamed up with Uzi Adam from Israel to document the entire production. Their endeavors are caught on film and can be seen on Rendezvous’ official site.
If you’ve never been a big fan of either jazz or electronica, be surprised to love Rendezvous’ music. It does not take much to develop quite a liking for their songs; listen to one song and you just might get hooked.
