Sutrastore

Toggling between Triphop and Pop, Sutrastore, whose five members met in Ypres in 2000, remain passionately on course with their original idea: the vocation to explore their music deep beyond the dark trenches left by the tides of their heritage.

After the EP &#39;Love Evolution 1.0&#39; Sutrastore built a reputation over the years by seducing their addicted listeners and fans with their atmospheric melodies. Inspired by <a href="spotify:artist:6FXMGgJwohJLUSr5nVlf9X" data-name="Massive Attack">Massive Attack</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:6liAMWkVf5LH7YR9yfFy1Y" data-name="Portishead">Portishead</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:0uCCBpmg6MrPb1KY2msceF" data-name="Burial">Burial</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:05fo024EFotg9songSENOZ" data-name="CocoRosie">CocoRosie</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:2oyWkw7sq99yqj12hVUHtw" data-name="David Sylvian">David Sylvian</a> among others, the words and the music of <a href="spotify:artist:4RN2vlFWepLa46qQIU2PHs" data-name="Jacques Brel">Jacques Brel</a> are naturally anchored in their hearts. Sutrastore produces an original sound of a particular singularity. The haunting voices of Kaat Arnaert and Patrick Cherchye are the band&#39;s signature and sit comfortably on top of Christophe Calis&#39; chemistry lab of electronics, refined beats and his choice of acoustic instruments. Calis&#39; lyrics are exploring certain questions we&#39;re all confronted with on a daily basis. The love for oneself and life, courage and perseverance, the belief in our evolution and knowledge, the flagging unawareness in the mind of darkness. Jan Delannoy&#39;s original keyboard arrangements and Jan Dirick&#39;s drums put a final touch to the Sutra sound.
