about the cassette

Ipanema is a project by Rotterdam-based musician Bram Nigten. Using a small collection of synthesizers, he composed a four-track love letter inspired by the flow of rivers. Vier Rivieren is the soundtrack to the skipper’s loneliest hours and the first release on No Hay Banda, the Rotterdam label that scores never-to-be-made films. It is an exercise in restraint, a constant act of gradual movement. Never the same music twice, much like the rivers it represents.
