J. Bernardt

Support: Pomrad

Fans of Belgian indie band Balthazar may already be familiar with co-frontman Jinte Deprez's solo project. Under the pseudonym J. Bernardt, Deprez explores new musical realms of atmospheric synthesizer beats that enjoy a range of influences. Whether inspired by his father's love of Kraftwerk or the delicate pop sides of his own musical discoveries: J.Bernardt is an exciting journey for Deprez, here he is something of a generalist; singer, songwriter, instrumentalist, arranger, producer, engineer in persona.

His sound is characterized by a mixture of electronic music, soul and R&B; his distinctive voice adds the finishing touch. In 2017, J. Bernardt released his debut "Running Days", a multi-layered soundscape that he mainly traveled alone. His upcoming album "Contigo" is more band-based, Deprez and his 'super-talented friends' had intense rehearsals and performances. Contigo - Spanish for "with you" - is a dramatic, compelling and colorful mix, Jinte explores all the phases of a breakup here: shock, sadness, anger, denial, hurt, acceptance - it comes across as "wickedly romantic". Sounds promising!
